The invention relates to an androgynous coupling means (10, 16, 17) exhibiting both male and female coupling sections (11, 12), wherein the androgynous coupling means is configured for form fit coupling with at least one further androgynous coupling means (10, 16, 17) exhibiting geometrically respective male and female coupling sections (11, 12) based on axial interlocking between the male and female coupling sections (11, 12), wherein the male coupling sections (11) exhibit at least one lateral locking contour configured for form fit with at least one blocking element (50) based on radial interlocking, wherein the respective lateral locking contour faces in a radial direction, especially in a radial direction outwards, wherein within the respective lateral locking contour, the male coupling sections exhibit at least one radial recess (71) providing a radial cavity for arranging or radially accommodating, in a coupled state, a/the blocking element(s), especially at least one ball, wherein in a/the coupled state, the radial recess (71) is configured for fixing the blocking element based on form fit within the cavity such that the androgynous coupling means is fixed in an axial relative position with respect to the corresponding androgynous coupling means.
