de déblocage rapides dudit connecteur sur la borne correspondante.  quick release of said connector on the corresponding terminal.

Des connecteurs de ce type sont en eux-mêmes connus Ils présentent cependant de nombreux inconvénients qui en limitent l'utilisation, essentiellement destinée à l'industrie automobile. Tout d'abord ils sont généralement conformés de manière telle qu'ils endommagent la borne de  Connectors of this type are known per se. However, they have numerous drawbacks which limit their use, essentially intended for the automotive industry. First of all they are generally shaped in such a way that they damage the terminal of

la batterie, borne qui est en matériau très malléable.  the battery, terminal which is made of very malleable material.

Par ailleurs, ils présentent généralement une faible surface de contact électrique.  Furthermore, they generally have a small electrical contact surface.

Enfin, ils présentent tous un encombrement important au dessus des bornes, encombrement  Finally, they all have a large size above the terminals, size

non compatible avec les exigences et les cahiers des charges des constructeurs automobiles.  not compatible with the requirements and specifications of car manufacturers.

L'invention a pour but de remédier à ces inconvénients des dispositifs de connexion de l'art antérieur. Conformément à l'invention, ce résultat est obtenu avec un connecteur pour borne de batterie du type permettant de relier chacune des bornes de ladite batterie au circuit d'utilisation et comportant un moyen de blocage et de déblocage rapides dudit connecteur sur la borne correspondante, caractérisé en ce qu'il se compose essentiellement d'une cosse comportant deux demi-coquilles aptes à se déplacer de manière élastique pour enserrer la borne sous l'effet d'une clé de fermeture articulée  The invention aims to remedy these drawbacks of the connection devices of the prior art. In accordance with the invention, this result is obtained with a connector for a battery terminal of the type making it possible to connect each of the terminals of said battery to the use circuit and comprising means for rapid blocking and unblocking of said connector on the corresponding terminal, characterized in that it essentially consists of a terminal comprising two half-shells able to move elastically to enclose the terminal under the effect of an articulated closing key
