ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a fastening device for a vehicle battery having a shell fixedly received in the vehicle for placing the battery and having a clamping bow which clamps the battery to the shell and extends in a U-shape over the battery. For reducing the manufacturing costs while the mounting times are shorter, the clamping bow is constructed as a one-piece U-shaped tension band made of spring steel with suspension hooks formed at the leg ends and a protuberance shaped out in the band web and pointing away from the battery top side. By pressing the protuberance flat, the suspension hooks can be hooked into corresponding suspension members on the shell, and after the release of the protuberance, the battery is force-lockingly fixed on the shell by means of the tension band.
