  • Patent number: 4377317
    Abstract: A side terminal battery adapter for connecting auxiliary cables to a side terminal of a side terminal battery includes resiliently urged opposed clamp halves adapted for fitting over and gripping the terminal. A gripping surface on the adapter permits connection of the auxiliary cables thereto using conventional gripping jaws. Alternatively, the adapter may be pivotably integrated with the gripping jaws of the auxiliary cables and retained in a selectable angular orientation with respect thereto by interengagement of circularly positioned teeth on the adapter and on the gripping jaws.

  • Patent number: 4373763
    Abstract: An adapter for adapting auxiliary connectors to side terminal batteries includes a portion which flips from a stored position against the exterior of one of the jaws of the auxiliary connector to an operative position between the jaws with a connector portion extending forward for attachment to the side terminal of a side terminal battery. A pair of slots in the flip adapter are engaged by a pair of teeth in the opposed jaw of the auxiliary connector to hold the flip adapter rigidly in its operative position.

  • Patent number: 4373762
    Abstract: A flip adapter for enabling connection of auxiliary cables to a side terminal of a side terminal battery includes a clamp adapted for fitting over and gripping the side terminal. The adapter is stored against the outside of one of the jaws of the connector of the auxiliary cables and is hinged to the connector for flipping one end of the adapter between the opposed jaws of the auxiliary connector to rotate the adapter forward into its operative position and to firmly retain it in that position.

  • Patent number: 4345807
    Abstract: A battery cable connector for top and side battery terminals has two resiliently movable gripping members whose end portions are manually separable from a normally closed state to an open state and jaws formed on the end portions for engaging a top battery terminal when in the closed state. A side battery terminal clamp is connected to a support member which is pivotally mounted on the end portion of one gripping member for pivotal movement of the clamp, in a plane radial to the direction of movement of the end portions, between a retracted position wherein the jaws are free to engage a top battery terminal and an extended position wherein the clamp projects from the end portions and is free to engage a side battery terminal. When the jaws comprise meshing circumferentially positioned teeth, optional positions may be selected for the battery terminal clamp.
