1. A coupling device configured for fastening an actuator to an actuating element of an actuating member, wherein the coupling device is configured to be connected to the actuator and can be brought into engagement with the actuating element, the coupling device comprising:
a base body on which a hook-shaped first coupling element is arranged, the first coupling element comprising a first leg projecting from a rear side of the base body and a second leg extending transversely to the first leg;
wherein the first leg, in the mounted state of the coupling device, is arranged lateral with respect to the actuating element and the second leg is arranged behind the actuating element;
wherein the base body comprises at least one second coupling element, the second coupling element having a first leg projecting from one side of the base body and a second leg extending transversely to the first leg;
wherein, in the mounted state, the first leg of the at least one second coupling element extends on the front side of the actuating member and the second leg of the at least one second coupling element extends transversely with respect to the first leg of the at least one second coupling element;
wherein the first coupling element and the at least one second coupling element are configured to be secured by movement towards the base body for engagement around the actuating member in a form-fitting manner, where a movement of the first coupling element towards the base body is different in direction in comparison to a movement of the at least one second coupling element towards to the base body.
