ABSTRACT:
A universal battery post connector for use with both positive and negative terminals on a storage battery comprises an apertured, split body and a pair of spaced opposed arms extending in parallel therefrom. The body is contractable about the battery post upon movement of the arms closer together such as by means of a conventional bolt and nut. An abutment is provided at the distal end of each arm, each abutment extending toward each other and aligned to engage when the arms are drawn closer together. The abutments have inclined opposing inner surfaces that converge toward each other and that lie obliquely relative to the axis along which the body aperture extends. Upon tightening of the nut on the bolt the inclined opposed abutment surfaces are brought into contact in a common plane, such movement providing an additional measure of contraction of the body about the battery post.
