Abstract
The invention relates to a hold-down device for a joining drive and joining drive with a hold-down device. The hold-down device includes a hold-down cylinder, wherein the hold-down cylinder provides a hold-down force by means of a pressurized chamber. The pressure chamber consists of the hold-down cylinder and a punch of the joining drive. The pressurization required for the provision of the hold-down force is provided by a hydraulic circuit of the joining drive. In the joining mode, the pressure chamber of the hold-down device is connected to a pressure accumulator of the hold-down device, so that a change in volume in the pressure chamber of the hold-down device has no noticeable influence on the pressure in the pressure chamber.
