Abstract: A battery terminal lug (1) is disclosed, the lug being equipped with a shunt (7) for measuring the battery current and other battery characteristics. The lug includes a support (8), such as for a printed circuit, of at least one electronic component. The lug is made up of a first part (2), which is configured to be secured to a terminal of the battery, and a second part, which is configured to be secured to the cable of the battery (which is ordinarily directly associated with the terminal of the battery). The two parts (2, 3) of the terminal lug are electrically insulated from one another and are provided with projecting portions (28, 38) to bear the shunt (7), and a casing (5, 6) to accommodate the shunt (7) and the support (8), wherein electrical insulation (4, 17) is positioned so as to intervene between the two parts (2, 3) of the terminal lug (1).

Abstract: This brush holder assembly for an electric machine includes a bearing-forming metal end cap (26) intended to be mounted on a carcass of the machine, and a set of members (28, 30, 32, 34) for electrical connection of the brushes mounted on the end cap (26) by means of rivets (50, 52) which each include a shank extending from one of the pieces consisting of the end cap and one of the members, passing through an orifice formed in the other piece and folded over against the latter. The shank is made of the same material as the piece from which it extends and includes a closed head.

Abstract: The electric machine includes a collector (60), a brush-holder assembly comprising an end cap (26) and a set of members (28, 30, 32, 34) for electrical connection equipped with guide cages (36, 38, 40, 42) suitable for accommodating a respective brush (44), in which a member (64) for limiting the radial displacement of the brushes in the absence of a collector is provided, the dimensions of the limiting member (64) being suitable for obtaining a tight fit of this member on the end cap (26). Application for the mounting of a brush holder for a motor-vehicle starter.
