A pile hammer includes a cylinder, a piston displaceably guided in the cylinder, and a striker displaceably guided in the cylinder. The striker is disposed underneath the piston in the operating position of the pile hammer. A combustion chamber is delimited axially by a face surface of the striker that lies in the interior of the cylinder and by a face surface of the piston. Using at least one fuel feed device a predetermined amount of fuel can be introduced into the combustion chamber during each working cycle. A primary fuel feed device is provided, which includes a primary fuel nozzle connected with a primary fuel tank having a fuel with great anti-knock properties. The primary fuel nozzle is structured as a high-pressure injection nozzle. An ignition oil feed device is also provided, which includes an ignition oil nozzle connected with an ignition oil tank having an ignition oil. The ignition oil nozzle is structured as a low-pressure injection nozzle. A method operates such a pile hammer.

The pile hammer according to claim 1, wherein the ignition oil nozzle is configured so that the ignition oil is applied to the striker as a jet. 3. The pile hammer according to claim 1, wherein the primary fuel nozzle is configured so that the fuel from the primary fuel tank is introduced into the combustion chamber as an atomized fuel mist. 4. The pile hammer according to claim 3, wherein the primary fuel nozzle is disposed so that the fuel mist is introduced into the combustion chamber near the striker face surface, orthogonally to a movement direction of the piston. 5. The pile hammer according to claim 1, wherein the primary fuel nozzle and the ignition oil nozzle are disposed at different vertical distances from the striker. 6. The pile hammer according to claim 5, wherein the ignition oil nozzle is disposed above the primary fuel nozzle, viewed from the striker. 7. The pile hammer according to claim 1, wherein the primary fuel nozzle and the ignition oil nozzle are connected with first and second pump devices, respectively, wherein the first and second pump devices are controllable by dropping the piston. 8. The pile hammer according to claim 7, wherein at least one of the first and second pump devices has a pump lever that projects into the interior of the cylinder 1 and is configured and oriented so that the pump device is activated when the piston drops past the pump lever, thereby initiating an injection process. 9. A method for operating a pile hammer comprising a cylinder having an interior, a primary fuel tank having a fuel with anti-knock properties, an ignition oil tank having an ignition oil, a piston displaceably guided in the cylinder and having a piston face surface, a striker displaceably guided in the cylinder and disposed underneath the piston in an operating position, the striker having a striker face surface lying in the interior of the cylinder, a combustion chamber delimited axially by the striker face surface and by the piston face surface, a primary fuel feel device comprising a primary fuel nozzle structured as a high-pressure injection nozzle for introduction of a predetermined amount of fuel into the combustion chamber during each working cycle, and an ignition oil feed device comprising an ignition oil nozzle structured as a low-pressure ignition nozzle connected with the ignition oil tank, said method comprising: (a) during each work cycle, activating a fuel pump by dropping the piston to cause the fuel with anti-knock properties to be introduced into the combustion chamber and by way of the primary fuel nozzle, thereby forming a primary fuel/air mixture in the combustion chamber;(b) activating the ignition oil pump to spray an amount of ignition oil onto the striker by way of the ignition oil nozzle; and(c) atomizing and igniting the ignition oil when the piston impacts the striker to cause ignition of the primary fuel/air mixture to take place. 10. The method according to claim 9, wherein the fuel with the anti-knock properties and the ignition oil are introduced into the combustion chamber at different times. 11. The method according to claim 10, wherein an ignition oil puddle forms from the amount of ignition oil sprayed onto the striker, and afterward, the fuel with anti-knock properties is introduced into the combustion chamber as an atomized fuel mist, before the ignition oil situated on the striker is atomized and ignited as a result of the piston impacting the striker.
