Therefore, when the tool box is hanged on a belt of a user who is sitting in a vehicle, the user can rotate the box body on the clamping plate and the tool box is horizontally positioned on the belt.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A tool box comprising:
 a box body having a pivoting hole opened thereon, a plurality of positioning protrusions protruded around the pivoting hole on the box body; and   a clamping plate having a pivoting shaft defined at one end thereof, the pivoting shaft of the clamping plate inserted into the pivoting hole of the box body, the pivoting shaft having a positioning hook at a top end thereof, the positioning hook of the clamping plate used to hook at the periphery of the pivoting hole of the box body, a plurality of positioning notches opened around the pivoting shaft on clamping plate, each positioning notch receiving each positioning protrusion.   
     
     
         2 . The tool box as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the box body has a extending block formed thereon; the pivoting hole is opened on the extending block; the positioning protrusions are protruded around the pivoting hole on the extending block of the box body. 
     
     
         3 . The tool box as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the box body has a bottom cover and a top cover; the bottom cover has two first pivoting units; the top cover has two second pivoting units; the two second pivoting units are respectively inserted into the two first pivoting units so that the top cover is pivoted on the bottom cover. 
     
     
         4 . The tool box as claimed in  claim 3 , wherein each first pivoting unit is formed as groove-shaped; each second pivoting unit is formed as cylinder-shaped.
