Battery connector for generator

1. A connector of a generator for connecting a battery terminal to the generator, the connector comprising:

a fixed base including first locking members;

a rotatable base coupled to the fixed base and rotatable 360° relative to the fixed base, the rotatable base including second locking members configured to cooperate with the first locking members to prevent rotation of the rotatable base relative to the fixed base when the first locking members are in cooperation with the second locking members; and

a receiver at the rotatable base configured to receive the battery terminal and retain the battery terminal at the rotatable base;

wherein the receiver is a bolt.

2. The connector of claim 1 , wherein the rotatable base is coupled to the fixed base with a spring that is arranged to bias the rotatable base against the fixed base and the second locking members into cooperation with the first locking members.

3. The connector of claim 1 , wherein the first locking members are first teeth and the second locking members are second teeth configured to cooperate with the first teeth.

4. The connector of claim 1 , wherein the bolt receiver is a threaded bolt configured to cooperate with a nut, the nut is threaded on the bolt to retain the battery terminal on the bolt and on the rotatable base.

5. The connector of claim 1 , wherein the fixed base and the rotatable base are both made of a polymeric material.

6. The connector of claim 1 , wherein the battery terminal is a battery positive terminal.

7. The connector of claim 1 , wherein the rotatable base further includes a terminal anti-rotation feature that restricts rotation of the battery terminal relative to the rotatable base when the battery terminal is coupled to the receiver.

8. The connector of claim 7 , wherein the terminal anti-rotation feature includes a first post and a second post both extending from the rotatable base on opposite sides of the receiver.

9. The connector of claim 7 , wherein the battery terminal includes an eyelet terminal.

10. A connector of a generator for connecting a battery terminal to the generator, the connector comprising:

a fixed base including first locking teeth;

a rotatable base including second locking teeth configured to mesh with the first locking teeth, the rotatable base is connected to the fixed base with a spring that biases the second locking teeth into cooperation with the first locking teeth to restrict rotation of the rotatable base relative to the fixed base; and

a receiver at the rotatable base configured to receive the battery terminal and retain the battery terminal at the rotatable base;

wherein the rotatable base is rotatable 360° relative to the fixed base upon pulling of the rotatable base apart from the fixed base to expand the spring and separate the second locking teeth from the first locking teeth; and

wherein the receiver is a bolt.

11. The connector of claim 10 , wherein the bolt is a threaded bolt configured to cooperate with a nut, the nut is threaded on the bolt to retain the battery terminal on the bolt and on the rotatable base.

12. The connector of claim 10 , wherein the battery terminal includes an eyelet terminal.

13. The connector of claim 10 , wherein the fixed base and the rotatable base are made of polymeric material.

14. The connector of claim 10 , wherein the battery terminal is a battery+terminal.

15. The connector of claim 10 , wherein the rotatable base further includes a terminal anti-rotation feature that restricts rotation of the battery terminal relative to the rotatable base when the battery terminal is coupled to the receiver.

16. The connector of claim 15 , wherein the terminal anti-rotation feature includes a first post and a second post both extending from the rotatable base on opposite sides of the receiver.

17. A connector of a generator for connecting a battery terminal to the generator, the connector comprising:

a fixed base including first locking members;

a rotatable base coupled to the fixed base and rotatable 360° relative to the fixed base, the rotatable base including second locking members configured to cooperate with the first locking members to prevent rotation of the rotatable base relative to the fixed base when the first locking members are in cooperation with the second locking members; and

a receiver at the rotatable base configured to receive the battery terminal and retain the battery terminal at the rotatable base;

wherein the rotatable base further includes a terminal anti-rotation feature that restricts rotation of the battery terminal relative to the rotatable base when the battery terminal is coupled to the receiver; and

wherein the terminal anti-rotation feature includes at least one slot defined by the rotatable base that is sized and shaped to receive the battery terminal therein.

18. A connector of a generator for connecting a battery terminal to the generator, the connector comprising:

a fixed base including first locking teeth;

a rotatable base including second locking teeth configured to mesh with the first locking teeth, the rotatable base is connected to the fixed base with a spring that biases the second locking teeth into cooperation with the first locking teeth to restrict rotation of the rotatable base relative to the fixed base; and

a receiver at the rotatable base configured to receive the battery terminal and retain the battery terminal at the rotatable base;

wherein the rotatable base is rotatable 360° relative to the fixed base upon pulling of the rotatable base apart from the fixed base to expand the spring and separate the second locking teeth from the first locking teeth;

wherein the rotatable base further includes a terminal anti-rotation feature that restricts rotation of the battery terminal relative to the rotatable base when the battery terminal is coupled to the receiver; and

wherein the terminal anti-rotation feature includes at least one slot defined by the rotatable base that is sized and shaped to receive the battery terminal therein.
