Improvements relating to battery terminals

摘要

A mounting plate 1 carries an integral terminal lug 3 incorporating a passageway for receipt of a bolt which will hold in place a connector for an electrical cable on a car battery. An adaptor post 5 (Figure 3) is of circular external shape with a slight upward taper and incorporates a recess. This will precisely match the shape of the terminal lug 3. The post 5 can be placed very firmly over the lug 3 so that there will be secure frictional engagement between these parts to hold the post 5 securely in place. This converts the mounting to one with an alternative type of connector for an electrical cable in the form of a sleeve which is clamped over the post 5.
