<p>A pressure connection apparatus includes a conductive spring member (30) having first and second end portions (30b, 30a) that are curved, and first and second retaining members (32, 34) having curved pockets (36, 38) that are oppositely oriented for receiving the first and second curved ends (30b, 30a) of the conductive spring member (30). An aluminum foil terminal (12a) of one battery (10a) is sandwiched between the conductive spring (30) and the pocket (36) of the first retaining member (32), while a copper foil terminal (14c) of another battery (10c) is sandwiched between the conductive spring (30) and the pocket (38) of the second retaining member (34). The spring member (30) is clad with aluminum on one side and copper on the other, and the end portions (30b, 30a) are oppositely curved so that the aluminum-clad side contacts the aluminum foil terminal (12a) within the pocket (36) of the first retaining member (32), and the copper-clad side contacts the copper foil terminal (14c) within the pocket (38) of the second retaining member (34).</p> |
