A coupling device for transferring a medium from a stationary part to a rotating part, including a stationary first ring, which is fixed in place on a stationary part, a second, rotatable ring, which is fixed in place on a rotatable part and rotates along with the rotatable part, a bearing, which is situated between the first ring and the second ring, an annular gap, which is situated between the first ring and the second ring, a supply line, which is disposed at the first ring for the supply of the medium, a discharge line, which is situated at the second ring for the conveying of the medium, the discharge line rotating along with the second ring, an inner sealing element, which seals the annular gap at a radially inner side, and an outer sealing element, which seals the annular gap at a radially outer side.

A device for coupling beam guides of optical systems for unidirectional or bidirectional transmission of beams via a beam transition between the optical systems is provided, the device having a connecting device and mechanical centering means. The connecting device provides a magnetic coupling for implementing a coupling connection in a coupling area. The centering means are situated opposite one another on the optical systems and coupled in such a way to cause the beam guides to self-center due to the attraction caused by the magnetic forces.
