A device for fixing vertebral has developed that is comprising: a constrainer having a constraint base and a constraint mount forming two lateral cutouts for receiving a connecting rod; an anchor having a screw for installing into the vertebral, a stem to be inserted into the constrainer, and an annular ring; a pivot having an insertion hole, a plurality of slits extended from a mouth of insertion hole, a snap-fitting groove forming on the inner peripheral surface for snapping-fit to the annular ring: and a constraint nut having a male thread formed on outer peripheral surface, and a hexagonal recess on the head for rotating by a tool. When the constraint nut is rotated clockwise, the constraint members and connecting rod are depressed against the peripheral seat to be immobile. But, the counterclockwise rotation of constraint nut makes the constraint members releasing and the pivot is free to swivel with respect to the anchor.
