Abstract: A connecting apparatus connects a receiving body for conveyed goods to a base body. The apparatus includes an abutment device with a support element on the base body and an abutment element on the receiving body. When used, the receiving body rests on the support element via the abutment element. A locking device with a first locking element is rotatable about an axis of rotation relative to the base body. A second locking element is fixed to the receiving body. An actuating device is connected to the first locking element. The first locking element is transferrable from a release position, in which the locking elements are disengaged, into a locking position in which the locking elements engage one another. The first locking element is guided through a through-opening of the base body. A sealing element seals the through-opening. A conveying assembly can include the connecting apparatus.

Abstract: A plug connection for electrically and mechanically coupling a pair of electrical conductors includes a coupling having a coupling housing and a lever with a locking element, a pin strip having a pin strip housing with a recess receiving the locking element, and a projection arranged between the lever and the pin strip housing. The lever is rotatably mounted at the coupling housing orthogonally to a plug-in direction. The coupling housing is arranged at least in sections on the pin strip housing in a form-fitting manner and the locking element is arranged adjacent to the recess in a pre-locking position of the lever. The locking element is brought into an operative connection with the recess by rotation of the lever. When a plugging force is applied onto the coupling housing, the projection generates a counter force on the lever against the plugging force.
