Patent number: 6554657Abstract: A battery clamp for being connected to a battery contact comprises a connecting lug, a contact ring which is provided with a slot so as to form two opposite clamping ends, and a spring which engages the clamping ends of the contact ring. The battery clamp further comprises a blocking wedge which can be shifted between a contact position in which it releases the clamping ends such that the spring can pull the clamping ends together, a mounting position in which it keeps the clamping ends of the contact ring to be spread apart such that the battery clamp can be placed on the battery contact, and a pull-off position in which it spreads the clamping ends of the contact ring to a larger degree than in the mounting position such that the battery clamp can be pulled off from the battery contact.Type: GrantFiled: August 7, 2001Date of Patent: April 29, 2003Assignee: Harting Automotive GmbH & Co.
