.~.~> Clamp secured to and separated from post by same screw-threaded member
DEFINITION
Classification: 439/757
With clamp-to-post joint separator:
(under subclass 754) Electrical connector having some positive means to break the joint between the battery terminal post and clamp connector by causing movement of the connector or a part thereof with respect to the terminal post.
(1) Note. In these connectors the coupling is not removed completely from the battery post, nor need it be even electrically separated therefrom. The joint separating means in these connectors is intended primarily to break a "frozen" joint to permit further separation of the parts by other means. A connector which has means for separating one coupling part of a coupling from another coupling part may be found in subclasses 152+.
