A connecting element for the detachable connecting of two frame components, which, within a casing, has at least one retaining element, with which the connecting element and also the frame profile can be connected in a detachable manner with the support profile. Within the casing, an eccentric cam is rotatably positioned to conduct the retaining element in a longitudinally movable manner in the casing so that a component of the retaining element projecting out of the frontal side of the casing can be brought into engagement with an undercut longitudinal groove of the support profile. In the discharge position of the retaining element, the eccentric cam head of the eccentric cam can be pressed into the casing against the force of a spring to be engaged in a boring of a frame profile. A safety mechanism prevents, in the insertion position of the retaining element, the axial movability of the eccentric cam. In order to prevent an unintentional pressing in of the eccentric cam, it is provided that the safety mechanism consists of a projection provided on the eccentric cam, and a recess is constructed in the casing. The projection and the recess are positioned to one another in such a manner that the projection, in the discharge position, can be pressed into the recess, and thereby permit an axial movability of the eccentric cam, but, in the insertion position, can not be pressed in, so that the eccentric cam is thereby prevented from having any axial movability. |

DETAILED DESCRIPTION This task is essentially solved, in accordance with the invention, through the fact that the safety mechanism consists of a projection provided on the eccentric cam, particularly on the support stud of the eccentric stud, and a recess constructed in the casing, whereby the projection and the recess are positioned relative one another in such a manner that the projection may, to be sure, be pressed into the recess in the area of the discharge position of the retaining element, and thereby permit an axial movability of the eccentric cam, but, however, within the insertion position of the retaining element, it may not be pressed in, and the eccentric cam is thereby prevented from axial movability. Such a prevention of inwardly pressing movement can be applied with slight expense, and even, if necessary, subsequent to the most varied connecting elements. The range in which a pressing inwardly is to be prevented ay thereby be determined by individual cases. The projection may be produced, in accordance with the invention, in a simple manner, if it is constructed as a single unit with the support stud. In accordance with one preferred development of the invention, the projection may be a bolt or a pin attached to the support stud. These may also still be subsequently installed on the support stud by means, for example, of welding. One further development of the invention provides that the projection has a bevelling. In this manner, the projection may be pressed deep into the clearance. For the secure guidance of the support stud in the casing, the guide is, in accordance with the invention, constructed as a boring in the casing base, the edge area of which projects into the casing in a crater-shaped manner. In one further development of this concept of the invention, the projection is positioned on the support stud in such a manner that, in a position which blocks the pressing in of the eccentric cam, it contacts the lower edge of the crater-shaped boring, or has only a minimal distance from the same
