ABSTRACT:
Battery clamp including a nut molded into one of the clamping arms and a rotatable bolt with a flanged shaft molded into the other clamping arm. The head of the bolt, flange, and nut provide bearing surfaces for drawing the clamping arms together, or forcing the clamping arms apart, depending upon the rotation of the bolt. The battery clamp is manufactured in a single molding process by pre-threading the nut onto a treated or coated flanged bolt to a predetermined position, positioning the pre-threaded nut and bolt in one portion of a battery clamp mold, assembling the remaining pieces of the battery clamp mold around the bolt and nut, securing the pieces of the battery clamp mold together, pouring a hard lead-alloy into an opening in the battery clamp mold, quenching the lead filled mold in a liquid bath to accelerate the cooling process, separating the secured mold pieces after the lead-alloy cools, and removing the molded battery clamp. The flanged bolt is treated or coated with a non-stick material such as Teflon.TM., graphite powder, or a non-petroleum based lubricant such as McLube.TM..
