Abstract
A battery terminal for terminating to a terminal post of a battery. A lever is rotatably mounted to a lever engaging portion and includes an engagement member with a pair of mounting members extending therefrom. The mounting members are spaced apart by a first distance which is greater than a second distance which is the distance that the lever receiving members are spaced from each other. The mounting members are positioned to the outside of the lever receiving members. Camming members extend from the mounting members. The camming members have engaging portions which extend inward from the mounting members. The camming members and the engaging portions have an elastic spring behavior which allows the camming members and the engaging portions to be elastically deformed when the lever is rotated between an open position and a closed position.
