Abstract: Universal battery hold-down structure particularly including an elongated bolt having a J-shaped lower end for securing the bolt to a battery tray and means to facilitate shortening of the bolt, a chrome plated non-corrosive elongated wing nut having a threaded opening in the lower end thereof for receiving the upper end of the bolt and including a dual external diameter forming an annular abutment adjacent the other end thereof for clamping a battery strap over the top of a battery positioned in the battery tray in conjunction with a resilient washer and a polished stainless steel washer sleeved over the non-corrosive wing nut and positioned between the strap end and washer and between the resilient washer and annular abutment.

Abstract: Wire separator structure and method for separating spark plug wires and the like. The structure includes a body member having a plurality of cylindrical openings therethrough including parallel transversely spaced apart axes of generation in the same plane, and a slot extending across the plane and parallel to the cylindrical openings have dovetail portions on both sides of the plane which body member is split in the plane of the axes of the cylindrical openings therethrough to provide separate body parts and a generally X-shaped wedge member positioned within the slot in the body member to hold the parts of the body member together with the wires to be separated within the cylindrical openings in the body member. In the method of the invention, wires to be separated are placed in cylindrical openings in a split body member and the parts of the split body member are secured together by an X-shaped wedge member extending axially of the cylindrical openings into dovetail slots in the body parts.
