A rechargeable battery includes a battery core and a connection member. The connection member includes a guide plate and a first connecting plate integrally formed on the guide plate and connected to a tab of the battery core. The first connecting plate is disposed in a bendable manner relative to the guide plate, and at least one indentation is present between the first connecting plate and the guide plate. The tab extends from a side of a core body of the battery core in a width direction. At least a portion of the guide plate protrudes, relative to the first connecting plate, towards the core body of the battery core to form a protrusion, and the protrusion abuts against the battery core.

A device that is capable of creating multiple connections on a grounding point in a single airport hangar, as well as reducing the likelihood of there being a tripping hazard over the connected cables, while also assisting in preventing damage to cable connections which may result from vehicles being driven inside an airport hangar.

A connection arrangement comprising a metallic flat conductor having an at least quadrangular cross-sectional profile and at least two mutually opposing first and second surfaces extending at least partially parallel to one another in the longitudinal direction, at least two parts which are flat in the overlap region and which are formed as connecting lugs and which rest on the first surface with an overlap joint and project beyond one or both longitudinal edges of the flat conductor, characterized in that a metallic friction stir welded joint zone is formed starting from the second surface through the flat conductor towards the first surface and projecting into the connecting lugs.

A terminal 12 connected to a front end portion of an electric cable 11 in the extension direction thereof is provided with a terminal main body 15 sandwiching the electric cable 11, and a slide member 16 which is capable of sliding relative to the terminal main body 15 in the extension direction of the electric cable 11. The terminal main body 15 includes a sandwiching portion 19 which is formed by means of a machined metal sheet material 60 and which sandwiches the electric cable 11, wherein: the sandwiching portion 19 includes a first holding projecting portion 23B which is formed by folding over the metal sheet material 60 at a side edge thereof that intersects the extension direction of the electric cable 11, and which projects out toward the electric cable 11 and is in contact with the electric cable 11, and a second holding projecting portion 23C which is formed by folding over the metal sheet material 60 at a side edge thereof in the extension direction of the electric cable 11, in such a way as to be positioned forward of the first holding projecting portion 23B in the extension direction of the electric cable 11, and which projects out toward the electric cable 11 and is in contact with the electric cable 11; and the slide member 16 includes a pressing portion which presses the sandwiching portion 19 toward the electric cable 11.

A connector includes a housing defining a first receiving space and a second receiving space, a conductive electrical connecting element arranged in the second receiving space, a retaining element engaging around at least portions of the electrical connecting element and a contact-securing insert arranged in the first receiving space. The conductive electrical connecting element includes a contact sleeve adapted to connect to a contact pin, and an electrical contact adapted to connect to an electrical conductor. The contact-securing insert fixing the electrical connecting element and the retaining element within the housing in an axial direction of the electrical connecting element.

A battery terminal clamp is provided for a rechargeable storage battery. The battery terminal clamp includes a body portion made of a conductive material. The body portion has a top planar element and a bottom planar element. The top planar element includes an orifice for accommodating the terminal post of a storage battery, and a tab integrally formed with the body portion. This tab extends upwardly from the top planar element, and serves as a secure attachment point for jumper cables.

A grounding clamp includes a plate having a first and second opposite longitudinal edges extending in a first direction, and first and second opposite transverse edges extending perpendicularly to the longitudinal edges in a second direction. First and second cable fastening region extend along the first and second transeverse edges, respectively, and are configured to fasten and electrically contact first and second cables to the plate, respectively. An opening is arranged between the cable fastening regions for inserting a fastener. An arm extends from the first or second longitudinal edge in the second direction so that the arm runs parallel to the first and/or second cable fastening region. A tab extends at a free end of the arm parallel to the first and/or second longitudinal edge and perpendicularly to a plane of the plate in a direction of an underside of the plate.
