ABSTRACT:
A battery terminal including a base configured to selectably engage a terminal tongue. An annular electrode-engaging portion is configured to receive a battery post, one end of the electrode-engaging portion extending contiguously from the base. An opposite end of the electrode-engaging portion terminates at a nonplanar member adjacent to the base. A lever-holding portion extends from the base toward the nonplanar member. A lever is pivotably connected to the lever-holding portion about an axis, the lever having a cam-shaped portion. In response to pivotal motion of the lever toward a closed position, the cam-shaped portion is urged into contact with the nonplanar member, the nonplanar member pivoting about an end along the base to resiliently draw the electrode-engaging portion into a gripping arrangement for engagement with the battery post.
