Device for holding a head arranged on a component, said device having a receiving space which has an opening via which the head can be inserted into the receiving space from outside and a spring element arranged in the receiving space and a path limiter arranged in the receiving space, • wherein the spring element has a receiving mean for the head of the component and • the straight line, which connects the geometric centre point (GMÖ) of the opening to the geometric centre point of the receiving mean, forms a reference line and the plane, which contains the geometric centre point (GMÖ) of the opening and is perpendicular to the reference line, forms a reference plane, • wherein a curved or bent receiving portion of a spring arm of the spring element is provided as part of the receiving mean, wherein the curved or bent receiving portion has at least one distance point which is arranged furthest away from the reference line by comparison with other points along the extent of the curved or bent receiving portion and • in relation to the position of the receiving portion viewed relative to the reference plane, a blocking portion of the spring arm, with respect to which the curved or bent receiving portion is designed as a recess, is provided closer to the reference plane than the receiving portion and • the path limiter with respect to its position relative to the reference plane is arranged closer to the reference plane than the distance point of the receiving portion, characterized in that • in relation to the position of the blocking portion relative to the reference plane, a joint portion of the spring arm, which allows the receiving portion to pivot against a restoring force acting in the direction of a starting position when the receiving portion is pivoted, is closer to the reference plane than the blocking portion, wherein this pivoting of the receiving portion allows a part of the spring arm lying between the blocking portion and the distance point to bear against the path limiter. • wherein the spring element has a receiving mean for the head of the component and • the straight line, which connects the geometric centre point (GMÖ) of the opening to the geometric centre point of the receiving mean, forms a reference line and the plane, which contains the geometric centre point (GMÖ) of the opening and is perpendicular to the reference line, forms a reference plane, • wherein a curved or bent receiving portion of a spring arm of the spring element is provided as part of the receiving mean, wherein the curved or bent receiving portion has at least one distance point which is arranged furthest away from the reference line by comparison with other points along the extent of the curved or bent receiving portion and • in relation to the position of the receiving portion viewed relative to the reference plane, a blocking portion of the spring arm, with respect to which the curved or bent receiving portion is designed as a recess, is provided closer to the reference plane than the receiving portion and • the path limiter with respect to its position relative to the reference plane is arranged closer to the reference plane than the distance point of the receiving portion, characterized in that • in relation to the position of the blocking portion relative to the reference plane, a joint portion of the spring arm, which allows the receiving portion to pivot against a restoring force acting in the direction of a starting position when the receiving portion is pivoted, is closer to the reference plane than the blocking portion, wherein this pivoting of the receiving portion allows a part of the spring arm lying between the blocking portion and the distance point to bear against the path limiter.
