The locking device comprises further a path element (22) formed as a disk and arranged parallel to the wheel element (18), wherein a large-area side of the path element (22) includes a path (26) for receiving and guiding an open end of the pin element (28), a second spring element (24; 36) effecting a rotation of the path element (22) in the predetermined sense of rotation and/or a displacement of the path element (22), and at least one hook element (16) inserted or insertable into a recess (14) of the casing (10, 12) and engaged or engageable with the wheel element (18). The hook element (16) is engageable with the wheel element (18) by pushing the casing (10, 12) towards the hook element (16). The hook element (16) is detachable from the wheel element (18) and the recess (14) by pushing the casing (10, 12) towards the hook element (16).
