Abstract: A connecting terminal, e.g. for a battery pole, comprises an essentially cylindrical casing provided with a longitudinal division, with at least one pair of jaws separated by the longitudinal division, between which jaws is located an opening for acceptance of a bolt with an attendant contrapiece which has a curved surface which by exertion of pressure upon a corresponding curved surface of the jaws causes the jaws to close.

Abstract: A dismountable coupling 1, which can be assembled in a simple manner and in a short period of time is provided for coupling coaxial cables.The coupling 1 having clamping means which include at least one pair of sockets (16, 17) with a contact socket 17, to be provided on the freed end of the cable between an inner conductor 9 and a coaxial outer conductor 10 of the cable and with a conical conductive clamping socket 16 to be provided round the outer conductor 10.The contact socket 17 being provided with circumferential teeth 18 extending radially outwards. In a special embodiment the coupling 1 l has a conductive cylindrical adapter 20 with dimension to be chosen such that various cables can be connected while using the same housing 2 of the coupling 1.
