ABSTRACT:
The invention pertains to a coupling device for a conveyor device which in particular is used for the suspended transport of clothing in the garment industry, whereby the conveyor device comprises a support rail which is suspended on a runner or a similar element, and whereby stay pipes (7) are arranged as holding devices in a movable fashion on said support rail via support straps (15). According to the invention, adjacent stay pipes (7) may be connected to each other selectively by coupling elements (1,2) that may engage each other. A blocking device (20,21) is provided for selectively blocking and releasing the coupling connection between adjacent stay pipes (7), whereby the blocking device comprises a blocking block (22) which is connected to the end of the stay pipe and assigned to the respective coupling element (1,2), and the blocking block may be pivoted between a blocking position and a release position in which the coupling engagement is not prevented.
