1. A closure device for connecting two assemblies to one another, comprising
a first closure part to be arranged on one of the assemblies and comprising a locking piece with a first locking section and a first magnetic element,
a second closure part to be fastened to the other of the assemblies and having a locking receptacle with a second locking section and a second magnetic element, wherein the first closure part and the second closure part are attachable to one another in a closing direction and are connected to one another in a closed position by positive locking counter to the closing direction, by the locking piece of the first closure part being received in the locking receptacle of the second closure part and the first locking section of the locking piece being in a positively locked engagement with the second locking section of the locking receptacle, wherein the first magnetic element and the second magnetic element are configured to assist magnetically the attachment of the first closure part and the second closure part to one another, and
an arresting mechanism arranged on the second closure part and having an arresting element and an actuating mechanism operatively connected to the arresting element, wherein the arresting element can be brought into operative connection with the locking piece in the closed position, in order to lock the positively locked engagement between the first locking section and the second locking section, wherein the actuating mechanism may be actuated in order to adjust the arresting element relative to the locking receptacle so that the first locking section and the second locking section are releasable from one another,
wherein the actuating mechanism has a lever element which is pivotable relative to the second closure part in order to adjust the arresting element relative to the locking receptacle.
