The device according to claim 4, wherein the joint head has the shape of a ball head which is connected to the end of the coupling rod by way of a short connecting shank with a cross-sectional diameter which is reduced by comparison with the diameter of the ball head. 6. The device according to claim 2, wherein the touch-latch mechanism has a cam of cardioid shape which is provided in the interior of the elongate hollow housing and in which a control projection provided on the end of the coupling rod within the housing engages. 7. The device according to claim 6, wherein the control projection projects from the free end of a lever which is mounted on the end of the coupling rod within the housing so as to be pivotable about a control projection which engages in the cam parallel to a longitudinal central axis of the control projection. 8. The device according to claim 6, wherein, in a central portion of the interior of the elongate hollow housing, the coupling rod is guided so that it is displaceable in the longitudinal direction of the housing but is not rotatable relative to the housing. 9. The device according to claim 6, wherein the elongate hollow housing has at least two housing halves put together along a plane extending approximately centrally through the housing in the longitudinal direction, of which one is provided with the cam in the interior of its end region remote from the catch component, whilst the interior of the other housing half lying opposite the housing half provided with the cam is of hollow construction in such a way that the control projection provided on the end of the coupling rod within the housing can follow the transverse movements transmitted to it during a longitudinal displacement of the coupling rod by the cam, and that the spring under compression pretension is supported on or in the end region of the hollow housing nearest the catch component and in the region of the coupling of the coupling rod on the catch component. 10. The device according to claim 6, wherein the control projection is disposed so as to be displaceable transversely with respect to the longitudinal direction of the coupling rod but in the longitudinal direction of the coupling rod is not displaceable on the end of the coupling rod within the housing. 11. The device according to claim 10, wherein the end of the coupling rod within the housing has a guide head which is widened transversely with respect to the longitudinal direction of the coupling rod, wherein in the side of the guide head directed towards the cardioid-shaped cam a transversely extending guide groove is provided in which a support element is displaceably mounted, wherein the control projection projects from the underside of the support element facing the cam and engages in the cam. 12.
