Abstract

An accommodating head for a tool which has an actuating tip and is intended for turning fastening elements, the tool having a drive element and an output element, it being possible for a torque to be introduced into the drive element and the tool being arranged in a rotationally fixed and pivotably mounted manner in the output element. In torque transmission from the actuating tip to the fastening element, the distance between the pivot axis of the actuating tip of the tool and the fastening element is small enough for the line of action of a force running along a longitudinal center axis of the output element to intersect the fastening element even in each pivoting end position of the tool and the actuating tip thereof.
