Claim 0:
1. A positioning device (10) for pivoting at least one relevant component (20) for a motor vehicle headlight about a first and a second axis (X, Y), comprising:
a holding element (100) for displaceably holding the at least one relevant component (20), said holding element (100) comprising a first sliding surface (110) of a surface pair, said first sliding surface being designed as part of a first spherical surface;
a support frame (200) for accommodating the holding element (100), the support frame (200) comprising a second sliding surface (210) of the surface pair, said second sliding surface being designed as part of a second spherical surface and corresponding to the first sliding surface (110), the holding element (100) being supported in the support frame (200) by a bearing apparatus such that the first sliding surface (110) of the holding element (100) can be displaced along the second sliding surface (210) of the support frame (200) about the first and second axis (X, Y); and
an adjusting apparatus (300) for pivoting the relevant component (20) about the first and the second axis (X, Y), said adjusting apparatus (300) having a positioning component (301) and a first moving apparatus (310) and a second moving apparatus (320), said first and second moving apparatuses (310, 320) being arranged on the positioning component (301), the positioning component (301) being mechanically connected to the holding element (100) by means of a connecting element (400),
wherein the connecting element (400) passes through the support frame (200) at the second sliding surface (210) via an opening (220) in the support frame (200), wherein the connecting element (400) is designed to transmit a movement of the positioning component (301) to the holding element (100), and wherein the connecting element is designed as a screw means, wherein the positioning component in connection with the screw means can be brought into a released state and a fastened state, wherein the positioning component (301) can be displaced by the first and second moving apparatuses (310, 320) when in the released state, and the positioning component (301) can be clamped immovably against the support frame (200) when in the fastened state by tightening the screw means.
