Abstract

A covering element for an alternator pole includes a body which is provided with a portion adapted to be fitted on the alternator pole and a portion adapted to be fitted on the cable that is connected to the alternator pole. The portion of the body which is adapted to be fitted on the alternator pole is provided with coupling teeth which are adapted to allow coupling to a coupling flange of the alternator pole. At least one of the teeth is elastically yielding so as to allow the coupling of the covering element to different diameters of the coupling flange.

Claims (8)

1. A covering element for an alternator pole, the covering element comprising: a body having a portion adapted to be fitted on the alternator pole and a portion adapted to be fitted on a cable that is connected to the alternator pole, wherein said portion of the body which is adapted to be fitted on the alternator pole is provided, at a lower portion thereof and at an outer edge, with a plurality of coupling teeth adapted to allow coupling to a coupling flange of said alternator pole, at least one of said teeth being elastically yielding so as to allow the coupling of said covering element to different diameters of the coupling flange, and wherein said portion of the body of the covering element adapted to be fitted on said alternator pole is provided internally, at an upper portion thereof, with a plurality of centering teeth adapted to allow a centering of said pole with respect to said portion of the covering element adapted to be fitting on the pole of the alternator, said centering teeth being arranged coaxial to the coupling teeth.

2. The covering element according to claim 1 , further comprising three coupling teeth which are elastically yielding and are provided with discontinuities with respect to a lower portion of said portion of the body of the covering element which is adapted to be fitted on said alternator pole.

3. The covering element according to claim 1 , wherein said portion of the body of the covering element adapted to be fitted on said cable is provided internally with a pair of teeth adapted to allow the coupling of said second portion to said cable.

4. The covering element according to claim 1 , wherein said portion adapted to be fitted on the cable is provided with a coupling element which is connected in a captive manner to said portion adapted to be fitted on the cable and is adapted to allow a crimping of said cable.

5. The covering element according to claim 4 , wherein said coupling element is provided with a plurality of teeth adapted to allow the crimping of cables of different dimensions.

6. The covering element according to claim 4 , wherein said coupling element connected in a captive manner to said portion of the body of the covering element which is adapted to cover said cable is provided in two semicircles, which are mutually connected and are adapted to crimp around said cable.

7. The covering element according to claim 1 , wherein said coupling teeth adapted to allow the coupling of the alternator pole to said coupling flange are provided with a slot adapted to allow the insertion of a tool for releasing said teeth.

8. The covering element according to claim 1 , wherein said portion of the body of the covering element adapted to cover said cable is provided with a plurality of slots adapted to allow a passage of a tie for the fastening of said covering element to said cable in the event of breakage of said coupling teeth configured for coupling to said flange.
