| 摘要 |
The present invention relates to a holder for securing a battery, such as a nine volt battery (12). A battery is placed in the battery holder (10) by firmly pressing the battery terminals against electrical contacts (16, 18) while rotating the opposite end of the battery under an opposed lip (24). The contacts, which are upwardly biased, yield to pressure to enable the battery to be secured beneath the lip. When the downward pressure is released, the upward bias of the contacts encourages the battery toward the battery holder upper lip, holding the battery in tension between the contacts and the upper lip. This configuration provides for push, pivot, and release installation of the battery. The battery holder secures one battery or alternative embodiments secure two batteries in parallel or in series configuration to provide additional current or additional voltage, respectively. |
