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 a relevant component (20), said holding element comprising a first sliding surface (110), which is designed as part of a spherical surface,
a support frame (200), which comprises a second sliding surface (210), which is designed as part of a spherical surface, the holding element (100) being supported in the support frame (200) by means of 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),
an adjusting apparatus (300), which has a positioning component (301) and a first moving apparatus (310) and a second moving apparatus (320), which are each arranged on the positioning component (301), which is 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) via an opening (220), 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 can be brought into a released state and a fastened state, wherein the positioning component can be displaced when in the released state, and the positioning component (301) can be clamped immovably against the support frame when in the fastened state by tightening the screw means.
