ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method for fusing intercell connectors to battery cell terminal posts. The apparatus includes inexpensive, non-metallic molds, each having a mold opening and being positionable onto a connector with the mold opening in aligned relation to a terminal post positioned in a connector opening for defining a mold cavity adjacent an end of the terminal post and the connector opening. A selectively positionable induction heating head is provided for locating an induction heating coil in predetermined spaced relation to a terminal post and connector to be fused such that generation of a high frequency, oscillating current in the coil causes melting and fusion of the terminal post and connector with the mold retaining and forming the molten lead. The induction heating head may be manually positionable for use with batteries with different post locations and orientations and includes safety and position locating features.
