Description of the Related Art As a method for charging a lead storage battery, there are various charging methods such as constant voltage charging, semi-constant voltage charging, constant current charging, and two-stage constant current charging. Then, in order to fully exhibit the cycle life capability of the lead storage battery, proper charging without insufficient charging or overcharging is required. Among them, the two-stage constant current charging is widely adopted because of its easy handling. Conventional two-stage constant current charging is a method in which the charging voltage of a battery is detected in the first-stage charging, the current is changed to a low current in the second-stage charging, and the charging is terminated by a timer.

ることを目的とするものである。In the two-stage constant current charging, the time until the voltage of the rechargeable battery reaches the detection voltage determines the amount of electricity charged in the first stage. The amount of charge in the first stage has a substantially constant ratio with respect to the amount of discharge, so that if the amount of discharge is constant, it is possible to charge an appropriate amount of charge. But,
In normal cycle applications, the amount of discharge electricity is not constant. In the second-stage charging, a constant amount of electricity is supplied to the lead storage battery by a timer in which a charging time is set in advance, regardless of the amount of discharged electricity before charging. As a result, if the discharge before charging is shallow, overcharging may occur, while if discharging is deep, insufficient charging may occur.
It was difficult to set the timer time for proper charging. The present invention solves one of the drawbacks of the conventional two-stage constant current charging system, namely, the problem of supplying a constant amount of charged electricity to a lead storage battery regardless of the amount of discharged electricity before charging. It is an object of the present invention to provide a charging method for performing proper charging of a storage battery with little excess or deficiency.

なる。DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS In a lead storage battery, the normal detection voltage of 2.40 to 2.45 V / cell is a voltage at which hydrogen starts to be generated at room temperature. The particles are aggregated, and the surface area of the aggregated lead particles is reduced. When the surface area of the lead particles decreases, the current density increases, the efficiency of the charge / discharge reaction decreases, hydrogen is easily generated, and the charging voltage is easily increased. Therefore, by repeating charge and discharge,
The amount of electricity charged from the discharged state to the generation of hydrogen is reduced.

る。[0006] Therefore, by setting the charging current low, it is possible to suppress the decrease in the amount of charge from the discharge state due to the repetition of the cycle to the generation of hydrogen by reducing the rise in the current density. Therefore, the accuracy of estimating the amount of discharged electricity from the amount of charged electricity increases until the generation of hydrogen when the current is set low. However, if the charging current is reduced, the charging time becomes longer, so it is not preferable to reduce the charging current too much. Therefore, by detecting the charging voltage with the lowest current for charging, the amount of discharged electricity can be estimated from the amount of charged electricity with the highest accuracy among the set charging conditions.

The system was terminated. Discharge is 12Ah and 44A by pattern discharge

FIG. 1 shows the charging characteristics of this storage battery. FIG.
The transition of the amount of charged electricity in the first stage and the first to fourth stages in 200 cycles after the initial stage with the amount of discharged electricity is shown.

Therefore, the charging is performed with the lowest current during the charging up to the detection voltage, and further, the charging is performed for a certain time with the same or higher current. By doing so, charging without excess and deficiency becomes possible.
