ABSTRACT:
A battery hold down device in the form of a frame made up of four parallel angle members engageable with opposed side edges of a pair of batteries placed side by side in a battery box. The ends of the angle members are connected by flat end plates, and the inner two angle members are attached to the end plates offset upwardly in relation to the outer angle members. Bolts extending between the batteries receive washers which engage the inner angle members. Nuts received over the washers are tightened down on the bolts, to clamp the batteries between the frame and the bottom of the battery box until the offset distance of the inner angle members is overcome, thus insuring a uniform preload along the four angle members.
