  • Such designed profiled rails can thus uniformly both for attachment of a vehicle container on the vehicle, as known from the AT 9755 Ul, as well as for mutual connection of the containers are used, which allows a modular production.
  • each container is provided with a grooved rail and the connecting element is an end plate with projections for clamping engagement in the frontal openings of two adjacent rails.
  • the end plate is additionally fixable by means of screws, which in frontal openings of the rails intervene to increase the reliability of the connection.
