Abstract

An electric storage battery, preferably a lead-acid battery, such as used for starting, lighting and ignition of an automobile or the like, includes a handle attached to the cover of the battery through a pin-and-button structure which is attached to the battery by insertion into an insertion aperture and is then moved into an assembly position where the handle can be rotated from a rest position adjacent the side of the cover to an upright, service position for carrying the battery.
