ABSTRACT:
A lead-acid battery having an improved side terminal construction. The battery includes a case formed of dielectric material and a plurality of positive and negative plates are located within the case. Each group of plates is electrically connected to a strap. One end of an elongated conductor bar projects through the side wall of the case and is welded to each strap, while the opposite end of the bar projects outwardly of the case and is provided with a recess which receives a metal nut. A cable clamping ring is attached to the opposite end of the conductor bar by a bolt which is threaded in the nut. If a longer than required bolt is inadvertently threaded into the nut, the opposite end of the bar will be deflected or bent as the bolt is threaded down, but the welded connection between the conductor bar and the strap will not be adversely effected.
