1. A pressing tool for the pressing together of a workpiece having an inserted pipe end, the pressing tool comprising:
at least two pressing jaws hinged together by at least one hinge pin to enclose the workpiece; and
a pressing element located adjacent to the at least one hinge pin and arranged to be moved toward the workpiece during a closing of the at least two pressing jaws;
wherein on a side facing the at least two pressing jaws, the pressing element includes wedge surfaces to which pressure surfaces of the at least two pressing jaws are applied during a pressing-together of the workpiece; and
wherein the pressing element is forced by the pressure surfaces of the at least two pressing jaws towards the workpiece during closing of the at least two pressing jaws.
2. The pressing tool according to claim 1 , wherein the at least two pressing jaws are rotated about a hinge axis constructed as a pin.
3. The pressing tool according to claim 1 , wherein the pressing element includes a leg having an oblong hole, and a pin reaching through the oblong hole.
4. The pressing tool according to claim 1 , wherein the pressing element includes two legs that reach around the at least two pressing jaws in a U-shaped manner, the pressing element being guided on the legs.
5. The pressing tool according to claim 1 , wherein each of the at least two pressing jaws includes a projection adjacent to an opening area located between the at least two pressing jaws, which projections engage one another in a comb-type manner when the at least two pressing jaws are closed.
6. The pressing tool according to claim 5 , wherein each of the at least two pressing jaws includes a receiving device assigned to one of the projections on an opposing pressing jaw.
