摘要

BATTERY AND HANDLE THEREFOR An electric storage battery having a detachably secureable, one-piece molded carrying handle pivoted on a pair of mounting knobs integral with the battery container endwalls. A preferred handle comprises a rigid rib-rigidified gripping portion, flexible arm portion extending from the gripping portion to the knobs on the battery container. The arms engage the knobs via flat terminals which permit attachment/detachment to the battery by movement in a direction parallel to the container endwalls and comprise a wall lying inboard the arm and defining a pocket for receiving a head on the knob which wall includes a socket therein for receiving and retaining a stem portion of the knob. Projections at the entrance to the stem-retention zone of the socket define a narrow gate for admitting and retaining the stem in the stem-retention zone.
