Abstract
An electrical storage battery is supported on a tray which is secured to a frame member. The tray and battery have interlocking notches which maintain the battery relative to the tray. A heat shield is positioned to cover the battery and secured to the tray. The securement structure includes a slot in the tray, retaining tab on the heat shield and a retaining clip. The retaining tab is inserted in the slot in the tray. The retaining clip passes through a slot on the heat shield and engages the slot in the tray to restrict movement of the retaining tab. The periphery of the heat shield is supported on three sides in grooves on the tray.
