Abstract

The present invention discloses a toolbox that includes a turnable containing base in the toolbox for accommodating several screwdriver heads of different sizes and specifications, such that users can access the required screwdriver head easily. The screwdriver head is sheathed onto the socket joint exposed from the toolbox, and the toolbox includes one or more socket joints installed at different directions, such that users can select the most appropriate socket joint to connect the screwdriver head and hold the toolbox directly to drive the screwdriver head to secure a fixture or a component. The socket joint can be connected to an extension socket first and then to the screwdriver head to increase the operating depth of the screwdriver head, so as to provide a convenient-to-store and easy-to-use toolbox to satisfy user's requirements.
