摘要： The invention relates to an apparatus comprising an advancing device and a blocking device (4), having a lever (40) that is adjustable between a blocking position and a releasing position, and to a method for positioning connecting elements, wherein a connecting element (2) is transferable by means of the advancing device (3) from a receiving region (I) into a delivery region (II) for a joining device, wherein the at least one lever (40) prevents any movement of the connecting element (2) from the receiving region (I) into the delivery region (II) in the blocking position and enables same in the releasing position, and wherein, by means of an end stop, any movement of the lever (40) from the blocking position into the releasing position is preventable. The at least one lever (40) is designed as a two-sided lever (40) having a first arm (41) and a second arm (42), wherein a first arm (41) of the at least one lever (40) interacts with the at least one end stop in order to prevent any movement of the at least one lever (40) from the blocking position into the releasing position, and a second arm (42) of the at least one lever (40) acts, in the blocking position, as a retaining jaw for the connecting element (2). The invention also relates to an apparatus for setting connecting elements.
