Abstract
In a structure for connecting a battery terminal to a battery post of a battery, a terminal body has a U-shaped curved portion which is formed between a distal end portion and a proximal end portion of the battery terminal. A retaining portion, at which the distal end portion of the battery terminal is retained, is provided in the vicinity of the battery post. Locking members lock the proximal end portion of the battery terminal in a position where the proximal end portion has been pivoted in a leverage manner while the distal end portion is retained in the retaining portion as a fulcrum, and while the U-shaped curved portion is press-fitted onto an outer periphery of the battery post.
