Conveying device and conveying system with such a conveying device

A conveying system designed using magnetic levitation technology comprising:

• a stator which has a movement surface;
• and
• a conveying device comprising:
• a mover comprises a locking unit and being movable relative to the movement surface;
• a receptacle configured to be connected to the mover in a connecting direction and to receive an object, wherein the receptacle comprises a counter-locking unit;
• wherein the locking unit and the counter-locking unit are adapted to be in locking engagement with one another in a locking direction with the mover and the receptacle in a connected state;
• and
• wherein the locking unit comprises at least one contact surface and the counter-locking unit comprising at least one counter-contact surface, and wherein, in the connected state, at least one contact surface and the at least one counter-contact surface are in form-fitting contact with one another in at least one form-fitting direction which is different from the locking direction.

A conveying device for an object not belonging to the conveying device, comprising:

• a mover of a conveying system designed using magnetic levitation technology and not belonging to the conveying device, the mover being movable relative to a movement surface of the conveying system;
• a receptacle configured to be connected to the mover in a connecting direction and to receive the object, wherein the mover comprises a locking unit and the receptacle comprises a counter-locking unit;
• wherein the locking unit and the counter-locking unit are adapted to be in locking engagement with one another in a locking direction with the mover and the receptacle in a connected state;
• wherein the locking unit comprises at least one contact surface and the counter-locking unit comprises at least one counter-contact surface, and wherein, in the connected state, the contact surface and the counter-contact surface are in form-fitting contact with one another in at least one form-fitting direction which is different from the locking direction;
• and
• wherein one of the counter-locking unit or the locking unit comprises an undercut and the other of the locking unit or the counter-locking unit comprises a counter-undercut, wherein in the connected state the undercut and the counter-undercut engage with each other in the connecting direction.
