Abstract
A battery terminal connector provides similar connector assemblies for electrodes of similar polarity. Each connector includes a U-shaped collector plate providing spaced and parallel flanges extending to spaced and parallel edges. U-shaped tabs are mounted on each electrode and provide legs which extend up along the outer sides of the associated flanges. Each leg provides an edge in alignment with the edge of the associated flange. An edge weld, extending lengthwise of the associated flange edge, connects the adjacent legs. In one embodiment, the legs are twisted so that their end edges extend lengthwise along the edge of the associated flange. In another embodiment, the legs are not twisted and engage the associated flange along the edge of the legs.
