Patent ID: 6864015

Claim:
An anti-rotation terminal connection assembly, comprising: a stud having a base and a threaded shank connected thereto; a boss member connected with said stud at a location substantially adjoining said shank and said base, said boss member having a predetermined non-circular shape; a terminal having an eyelet, said eyelet having a non-circular shape complementary to said non-circular shape of said boss member, wherein said eyelet receives said boss member when said terminal lies on said base, and wherein an interfering relation between said boss member and said eyelet prevents rotation of said terminal about said shank; and a nut threadably engageable on said shank; wherein with said terminal lying on said base, said nut abuts said terminal to thereby electrically connect said terminal to said stud; wherein said non-circular shape of said boss member and said eyelet comprises a polygonal shape; wherein said nut has a perimeter, said nut having an annular lip formed at said periphery, wherein said lip only abuts said terminal when said nut is tightly threaded on said shank.
