Abstract

An arrangement of a suspension and of a rail is provided, in particular for suspending a travel and/or carrier rail or a lifting gear on a chassis or frame, having a tension element supporting the rail at one end thereof in the region of a profile head by a mounting element, with the head being substantially C-shaped in cross section, and forming a gap running at the top along a longitudinal center plane of the rail. The mounting element comprises a pivotable part that can be pivoted with respect to the tension element, the profile head and the pivotable part being designed such that the pivotable part can be guided through the gap from outside into the profile head in a loading position, and can be pivoted into a mounting position in which the pivotable part contacts the profile head from the inside, bridging the gap.
