1. A central release mechanism, comprising:
a central release mechanism housing with an annular central release mechanism piston chamber in which a central release mechanism piston is received axially movably by a hydraulic liquid that is suppliable to the central release mechanism piston chamber;
at least one central release mechanism piston seal which seals the central release mechanism piston with respect to the central release mechanism piston chamber; and
the central release mechanism piston seal is arranged in the central release mechanism housing so as to be axially secured at least on one side by a retaining ring, the retaining ring being connectable to the central release mechanism housing by a bayonet connection.
