is a connection terminal that is fastened to a post 2 of a battery (not shown), and has a crimping part 3 bent into a substantially circular shape so as to be crimped onto the circumferential surface of the post 2, and a predetermined connection to this crimping part 3. It consists of a fastening part 6 that is tightened with a bolt 4 and a nut 5 to provide frictional force.
A cable 7 for distributing power to electrical equipment (not shown) is connected to the fastening portion 6. In addition, 8 is an auxiliary terminal for distributing power directly from the battery to other electrical components.
A bolt 4 and a nut 5 are used to tighten the connecting terminal 1 together, and a connector 10 having a cable 9 connected to the auxiliary terminal 8 can be fitted therein.
