  • the Fig. 29 shows a sectional view of a connecting element arrangement 139 with a connecting element 140, here in contrast to the connecting element arrangement Fig. 28 a module element 141 has a shortened blind hole, so that the screw 135 is screwed into a material of the module element 141.
  • a synopsis of the 30a to 30b shows a module element 142 with a connection structure 143, in which the arcuate contour 144 forms a recess 145 in a corner 146 of the module element 142.
  • the recess 145 is delimited by base surface sides 147 of the module element 142.
  • a connecting element arrangement 148 is formed here in several parts and comprises a disc-shaped axis 149 with through openings 150 and a number of pins 151 corresponding to the number of through openings 150.
  • the axis 149 can be inserted into the recess 145, so that the axis 149 is at least partially covered by the base surface sides 147 and can be received in the recess 145.
  • Through openings 152 are also formed in the base surface sides 147 and are aligned with the through openings 150 of the axis 149.
  • a pin 151 can thus be inserted through the through openings 152 and 150 and fix the axis 149 to the module element 142 in a form-fitting manner.
