A device for plane-parallel attachment of a first module to a sidewall of a second module includes at least one coupling element with clamping projections having beveled end sections. The coupling element includes a guide element with two opposing guide tabs, a locking element, and a stop element, wherein the guide tabs, the locking element, and the stop element abut sidewalls of the connecting element so that the two guide tabs extend from a first opposing pair of the sidewalls, and the locking element and the stop element extend from another opposing pair of the sidewalls perpendicular to the first pair. The first module includes an interlock for captivating the coupling element or elements in the sidewall of the first module, whereas the second module has a receiving part capable of receiving the coupling element or elements captivated in the sidewall of the first module.

What is claimed is: 1. A coupling element for connecting a sidewall of one module to an opposite sidewall of another module, comprising: a connecting element constructed with opposite dovetailed end sections for respective insertion and clamping in an opening in the sidewall of one module and an opening in the sidewall of the other module, said connecting element having four sidewalls extending between the dovetailed end sections, two of the sidewalls being perpendicular to the other two sidewalls; a first guide tab extending from a first one of the sidewalls of the connecting element; a second guide tab extending from a second one of the sidewalls of the connecting element in opposition to the first sidewalls; a locking element extending from a third one of the sidewalls of the connecting element; and a stop element extending from a fourth one of the sidewalls of the connecting element in opposition to the third sidewall, wherein the guide tabs have an end face that is beveled. 2. The coupling element of claim 1, wherein the locking element, the stop element, the guide tabs and the connecting element are constructed as a single-piece. 3. The coupling element of claim 1, wherein the coupling element is made of plastic. 4. The coupling element of claim 1, wherein the coupling element is an injection molded plastic part. 5. The coupling element of claim 1, wherein the stop element has a beveled end face. 6. A coupling element for connecting a sidewall of one module to an opposite sidewall of another module, comprising: a connecting element constructed with opposite dovetailed end sections for respective insertion and clamping in an opening in the sidewall of one module and an opening in the sidewall of the other module, said connecting element having four sidewalls extending between the dovetailed end section, two of the sidewalls being perpendicular to the other two sidewalls; a first guide tab extending from a first one of the sidewalls of the connecting element; a second guide tab extending from a second one of the sidewalls of the connecting element in opposition to the first sidewall; a locking element extending from a third one of the sidewalls of the connecting element; and a stop element extending from a fourth one of the sidewalls of the connecting element in opposition to the third sidewall, wherein the guide tabs are one of grooved, ribbed and corrugated. 7. The coupling element of claim 6, wherein the locking element, the stop element, the guide tabs and the connecting element are constructed as a single-piece. 8. The coupling element of claim 6, wherein the coupling element is made of plastic. 9. The coupling element of claim 6, wherein the coupling element is an injection molded plastic part. 10. The coupling element of claim 6, wherein the stop element has a beveled end face. 11. A coupling element for connecting a sidewall of one module to an opposite sidewall of another module, comprising: a connecting element constructed with opposite dovetailed end sections for respective insertion and clamping in an opening in the sidewall of one module and an opening in the sidewall of the other module, said connecting element having four sidewalls extending between the dovetailed end sections two of the sidewalls being perpendicular to the other two sidewalls; a first guide tab extending from a first one of the sidewalls of the connecting element; a second guide tab extending from a second one of the sidewalls of the connecting element in opposition to the first sidewall; a locking element extending from a third one of the sidewalls of the connecting element; and a stop element extending from a fourth one of the sidewalls of the connecting element in opposition to the third sidewall, wherein the locking element and the stop element extend in offset relationship. 12. The coupling element of claim 11, wherein the locking element, the stop element, the guide tabs and the connecting element are constructed as a single-piece. 13. The coupling element of claim 11, wherein the coupling element is made of plastic. 14. The coupling element of claim 11, wherein the coupling element is an injection molded plastic part. 15. The coupling element of claim 11, wherein the stop element has a beveled end face. 16. An assembly comprising: a first module having a sidewall; a second module having a sidewall; and a coupling element for connecting the sidewall of the first module to the sidewall of the second module, said coupling element including a connecting element which is constructed with opposite dovetailed end sections being respectively inserted and clamped in an opening in the sidewall of the first module, and an opening in the sidewall of the second module, and which has four sidewalls extending between the dovetailed end sections, two of the sidewalls being perpendicular to the other two sidewalls, a first guide tab extending from a first one of the sidewalls of the connecting element for placement between the sidewalls of the modules, a second guide tab extending from a second one of the sidewalls of the connecting element in opposition to the first sidewall for placement between the sidewalls of the modules; a locking element extending from a third one of the sidewalls of the connecting element for placement in the opening in the sidewall of the second module, and a stop element extending from a fourth one of the sidewalls of the connecting element in opposition to the third sidewall for placement against an inside of the sidewall of the first module. 17. The assembly of claim 16, wherein the opening in the sidewall of the second module is a slot having opposing projections disposed in a lower region of the slot. 18. The assembly of claim 16, wherein the sidewall of the first module comprises a recess with a slot located centrally in the recess and having opposing projections in an upper region of the slot.
