A method for determining a position of a lock element of an injection valve for an internal combustion engine includes moving the lock element in the direction of a locked position in a closing movement in order to lock the injection valve, subsequently measuring a closure time at which the lock element arrives in the locked position, determining a time difference between the closure time and a preceding starting time of the closing movement, and determining, based on the time difference, a position which the lock element has assumed at the starting time of the closing movement.

1. An injection system for injecting fuel into an internal combustion engine, the injection system comprising: a control unit andat least one injection valve comprising: a blocking element for blocking the injection valve,a drive for the blocking element, anda sensor configured to: respond to a situation of the blocking element reaching a blocking position, andgenerate a corresponding signal,wherein the control unit is configured to: actuate the drive to initiate a closing movement of the blocking element in the direction of the blocking position,determine, based on the signal from the sensor, a closing time point at which the blocking element of the at least one injection valve enters the blocking position,determine a time difference between the closing time point and a preceding starting time point of the closing movement, anddetermine a position which the blocking element had assumed at the starting time point of the closing movement based on the time difference. 2. The system of claim 1, wherein the control unit is configured to determine said position using an equation of motion of the blocking element based on the time difference, or to read out said position from a characteristic diagram of the injection valve based on the time difference. 3. The system of claim 1, wherein the drive has a piezo actuator. 4. The system of claim 1, comprising a substantially rigid connection between the drive and the blocking element for direct transmission of force between the drive and the blocking element. 5. The system at claim 1, wherein the sensor is provided by the piezo actuator of the drive. 6. The system of claim 1, wherein the blocking element has a nozzle needle. 7. The system of claim 1, wherein the control unit is configured to: actuate the drive to transmit a drive pulse to the blocking element to initiate a reciprocating movement of the blocking element and in order to partially or completely open the injection valve for a single injection operation, andin order to achieve a specific stroke height of the blocking element, determine the drive pulse using the position which the blocking element had assumed at the starting time point of one of the preceding closing movements during an earlier single injection operation. 8. A method for determining a position of a blocking element of an injection valve for an internal combustion engine, comprising: causing the blocking element to perform a closing movement in the direction of a blocking position, in order to block the injection valve,measuring a closing time point at which the blocking element reaches the blocking position,determining a time difference between the closing time point and a preceding starting time point of the closing movement, anddetermining, based on the time difference, a position which the blocking element had assumed at the starting time point of the closing movement. 9. The method claim 8, wherein said position is determined by movement compensation of the blocking element based on the time difference, or said position is read out from a characteristic diagram of the injection valve based on the time difference. 10. The method claim 9, wherein a piezo element causes the blocking element to perform the closing movement. 11. The method of claim 10, wherein the blocking element is directly driven by the piezo element. 12. The method of claim 10, wherein the situation of the blocking element reaching the blocking position is detected by the same piezo element. 13. The method of claim 8, wherein the blocking element has a nozzle needle. 14. The method of claim 8, comprising transmitting a drive pulse to the blocking element to cause the blocking element to perform a reciprocating movement, in order to partially or completely open the injection valve for a single injection operation, wherein, in order to achieve a specific stroke height of the blocking element, the drive pulse is determined using the position which the blocking element had assumed at the starting time point of the preceding closing movement during an earlier individual injection operation.
