The method for attaching the cover 20 to the battery connection terminal 10 is as follows. One of the connection members 12 of the battery connection terminals 10 is pushed into the internal space 27 of the tube portion 22 opened in the cylindrical portion 21 of the cover 20. At this time, since the cover 20 is made of rubber and can be deformed, and the braided electric wire 11 of the battery connection terminal 10 can be bent, the battery connection terminal 10 can be easily pushed into the tube portion 22. Then, one connecting body 12 comes out of the opening on the opposite side of the tube portion 22 and then travels along the housing groove 23 to abut and reach a dead end. Then, while deforming the cylindrical part 21 of the other connecting body 12, the cylindrical part 2
1 into the accommodation groove 23. By the above, cover 2
Attachment to the battery connection terminal 10 is completed.
Here, when the cover 20 and the battery connection terminal 10 are blended, the battery connection terminal 10 is held in an arch shape following the arch shape of the cover 20 (see FIG. 1).

一致するから取付作業が極めて容易となる。The connection between the batteries B by the battery connection terminal 10 with the cover 20 is as follows. To this end, a pair of batteries B, B are fixed by fixing means (not shown), and a pair of battery posts P, P are arranged adjacent to each other as shown in FIG. Then, the seal portion 24 of the cover 20 is attached to the upper surface B of the battery B.
1, the battery post P is inserted into the insertion hole 13 of the connector 12. Here, conventionally, it took time and effort to bend the battery connection terminal which was flat in a natural state into an arch shape at the time of attachment. However, according to the battery connection terminal 10 with the cover 20 of the present embodiment, The battery connection terminal 10 itself is also formed in an arch shape by the cover 20, and the two connection holes 13
Since the pitch between the two battery posts P and P substantially coincides with the pitch between the two battery posts P, the mounting operation becomes extremely easy.

なくなる。After the battery posts P are inserted into both the insertion holes 13, the nut N is screwed into the battery post P from the upper opening of the cylindrical portion 21 of the cover 20. As a result, the connector 12 is sandwiched and fixed between the base P1 of the battery post P and the nut N, and the seal portion 24 is in close contact with the upper surface B1 of the battery B. Finally, when the cap 30 is fitted to the upper end of the tubular portion 21 of the cover 20, the waterproof lip 26 of the tubular portion 21 and the insertion wall 31 of the cap 30 are brought into close contact with each other, whereby the inside of the cover 20 becomes a waterproof space. Therefore, water does not splash on the battery connection terminal 10.

However, in this embodiment, since the battery connection terminal 10 and the cover 20 are attached in an arch shape, the arch portion can absorb the displacement of the pitch.

In some cases, cracks may occur due to creep deformation. However, the cover 20 of the present embodiment is not formed in accordance with the natural state of the battery connection terminal 10 but is formed in an arch shape in advance according to the arch shape when the battery connection terminal 10 is attached to the battery post P. Because
The internal stress does not act as described above, and therefore, the cover 20 does not shift from the battery connection terminal 10 to lower the waterproofness or to cause cracks.
