ABSTRACT:
An improved terminal for electrical connection to an alternator includes a connecting plate formed as portion of a radiator plate including recesses adapted to receive diodes for use in forming a rectifier bridge. The rectifier bridge assembly comprises a plastic housing that is insert molded over the radiator plate including louvers for passing cooling air past the diodes. The connector plate includes an opening to receive the stem of an enlarged headed fastener before the plastic body is formed around the radiator plate. Before molding, the bolt is pressed by a mold insert against the contact plate so the stem extends outwardly within an axially extending, circumferentially interrupted wall formed by the molding process. The outer surface of the connecting plate includes an axially raised surface at the periphery of the opening and an adjacent tapered surface so that a mold insert pressed against the connecting plate keeps it free of plastic during the molding process, and any overruns of molding material against the tapered surface remain retracted from the axially extended contact surface.
