A plurality of reinforcing ribs 8 and 9 are formed on an end wall of a battery container 2 of a battery B, and a pair of notches 11 are defined in the reinforcing rib 9 at an upper end. A battery suspending jig J has a pair of hooks 14 formed on a base plate 12 formed of a metal plate material. An attaching/detaching portion 14.sub.1 of the hook 14 is passed through an attaching/detaching bore 11.sub.1 of the notch 11 and then moved upwards, whereby an engage portion 14.sub.2 of the hook 14 is brought into engagement into an engage bore 11.sub.2 of the notch 11, and a receiving portion 14.sub.3 of the hook 14 is urged against a lower surface of the reinforcing rib 9. Thus, the battery B can be suspended and moved by connecting the battery suspending jig J to a chain block or a winch through a wire.
A battery suspending jig for suspending a battery, said battery including a battery container having one side open, a top lid for covering the opened side of said battery container, and a suspending support portion which is formed on a reinforcing rib protruding outwards from a side wall of said battery container, wherein said support portion is a notch which opens into an outer edge of said reinforcing rib, said jig comprising a plate-shaped hook fitted from sideways into said notch in said reinforcing rib for supporting a lower surface of said reinforcing rib,
