    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.
