特許文献１において、バッテリカバーをバッテリに固定された状態から取り外す場合、バッテリカバーを強制的に上方に引き上げて取り外すことになるのであるが、バッテリカバーを強制的に上方に引き上げるのに伴って、バッテリカバーの一対のアーム部の爪部がバッテリ側の固定部から強制的に離されることになる。従って、バッテリカバーの一対のアーム部の爪部がバッテリ側の固定部から容易に離れるように、特許文献１ではバッテリカバーの一対のアーム部の爪部、及びバッテリ側の固定部が少し斜めに形成されている（特許文献１の図７参照）。   In Patent Document 1, when removing the battery cover from the state fixed to the battery, the battery cover is forcibly pulled upward and removed, but as the battery cover is forcibly pulled upward, The claws of the pair of arm portions of the battery cover are forcibly separated from the battery-side fixing portion. Therefore, in Patent Document 1, the claw portions of the pair of arm portions of the battery cover and the fixing portion on the battery side are slightly inclined so that the claw portions of the pair of arm portions of the battery cover are easily separated from the fixing portion on the battery side. It is formed (see FIG. 7 of Patent Document 1).

しかしながら、特許文献１のように、バッテリカバーの一対のアーム部の爪部、及びバッテリ側の固定部を少し斜めに形成すると、バッテリカバーの固定作用が少し甘くなることが考えられ、バッテリカバーがバッテリに固定された状態で少しガタ付くような状態になることが考えられる。
本発明はバッテリ端子を覆うバッテリカバーにおいて、バッテリカバーがバッテリにガタ付きなく固定されるようにしながら、バッテリカバーをバッテリに固定された状態から容易に取り外すことができるように構成することを目的としている。 However, as in Patent Document 1, if the claw portions of the pair of arm portions of the battery cover and the fixing portion on the battery side are formed slightly diagonally, the fixing action of the battery cover may be slightly sweetened. It is conceivable that the battery is slightly loose when it is fixed to the battery.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a battery cover that covers a battery terminal so that the battery cover can be easily removed from a state of being fixed to the battery while the battery cover is fixed to the battery without looseness. Yes.

Is not in contact with the upper surface of the battery 1 so that the upper part of the cover part 14 of the battery cover 12 is elastically deformed downward, but instead of the battery terminal 3 or the connection terminal part 10 of the fuse box 4. A convex portion (not shown) is extended upward from this, and the convex portion is brought into contact with the back surface of the cover portion 14 of the battery cover 12, thereby pushing the push portion 14a of the cover portion 14 of the battery cover 12 from above. Then, while the upper part of the cover part 14 of the battery cover 12 is elastically deformed downward, the pair of arm parts 16 of the battery cover 12 are mutually connected. It may be configured to open on the side (the left-right direction in FIG. 4) away.

前述の［発明を実施するための最良の形態］において、バッテリカバー１２の基部１３及びヒンジ部１５を廃止して、カバー部１４のみによってバッテリカバー１２を構成してもよい。このように構成するとバッテリカバー１２（カバー部１４）をバッテリ１から完全に取り外すことができる。   In the above-mentioned [Best Mode for Carrying Out the Invention], the battery cover 12 may be configured only by the cover portion 14 by omitting the base portion 13 and the hinge portion 15 of the battery cover 12. If comprised in this way, the battery cover 12 (cover part 14) can be removed from the battery 1 completely.

前述の［発明を実施するための最良の形態］において、バッテリカバー１２の一対のアーム部１６の爪部１６ａが、ヒューズボックス４の接続端子部１０の一対の切欠き部１０ｃではなく、バッテリ端子３やバッテリ１の上面に係合して、バッテリカバー１２のカバー部１４がバッテリ１に固定（閉じ位置）されるように構成してもよい。   In the above-mentioned [Best Mode for Carrying Out the Invention], the claw portions 16a of the pair of arm portions 16 of the battery cover 12 are not the pair of cutout portions 10c of the connection terminal portion 10 of the fuse box 4, but the battery terminals. 3 and the upper surface of the battery 1 may be engaged so that the cover portion 14 of the battery cover 12 is fixed to the battery 1 (closed position).
