Abstract
A battery terminal includes a penetrating plate disposed to penetrate annular portions from one end portions of the annular portions to the other end portions of the annular portions with slits interposed therebetween; a fastening bolt supported by a threaded hole of the penetrating plate to be rotatable about an axial direction; and a spacer as a pressing force converting member disposed to come into contact with edge portions of the annular portions from an end portion side of the penetrating plate where the threaded hole is provided, and converts an axial-direction fastening force, which is generated between the fastening bolt and the threaded hole with the rotation of the fastening bolt about the axial direction, into a long-side-direction pressing force that presses the annular portions in a direction, in which intervals of the slits of the annular portions are reduced, of a long-side direction.
