Cable connecting assembly for machine

A cable connecting assembly for a machine, the cable connecting assembly comprising:

• a cable;
• a contact terminal configured to connect with the cable, the contact terminal including:
• a first body portion defining a first diameter, a first end, and a second end opposite the first end, wherein the first body portion extends along a first distance between the first end and the second end;
• and
• a second body portion extending from the first body portion and defining a second diameter, wherein the second diameter is greater than the first diameter of the first body portion;
• and
• a connecting device configured to connect with the contact terminal, the connecting device extending along a longitudinal axis, wherein the connecting device includes:
• a connecting plate including:
• a first portion;
• and
• a second portion connected to the first portion, the second portion defining a first side and a second side, such that the second portion is connected to the first portion at the first side;
• a bracket configured to removably connect with the second portion of the connecting plate, such that the bracket and the second portion are together configured to removably connect the contact terminal with the connecting device;
• and
• at least one coupling device configured to removably connect the bracket with the second portion of the connecting plate,
• wherein, when the contact terminal is connected to the connecting device, the contact terminal at least partially abuts the second side of the second portion of the connecting plate,
• wherein the second portion includes a first curved section, and wherein the second portion defines a first slot extending orthogonally to the first curved section,
• wherein the bracket includes a second curved section, wherein, when the bracket is connected to the connecting plate, the first curved section of the second portion and the second curved section of the bracket together define a passage, such that the passage at least partially receives the contact terminal therein, and wherein, when the contact terminal is connected to the connecting device, at least a portion of the second body portion is received within the first slot of the second portion, and
• wherein the bracket defines a second slot extending orthogonally to the second curved section, and wherein, when the contact terminal is connected to the connecting device, at least a portion of the second body portion is received within each of the first slot of the second portion and the second slot of the bracket.
