Abstract:
1. A coupling device of a transport cart, by means of which coupling device the transport cart is adapted to be attached to a structure of a supply panel for medical applications, wherein the supply panel can be positioned through a ceiling mount, the coupling device comprising a first jaw with a first latching device and a second jaw with a second latching device, the first and second jaws being adapted to be coupled to the structure of the supply panel, wherein, in order to enable coupling of the transport cart to the structure, each of the first jaw and the second jaw is adapted via the first latching device and the second latching device, respectively, to be locked into a closed position from a stopped, uncoupled open position upon mechanical pressure contact with the structure, wherein the first latching device and the second latching device are provided with an interlock device which prevents the first and second jaws from moving independently from the open position to the closed position.
