Problems solved by technology

[0005] ①Acid replenishment repair: add high-concentration sulfuric acid to the battery, the battery capacity will rise rapidly, but the maintenance time is very short, and the liquid electrolyte will seriously corrode the battery plate, which will speed up the scrapping speed of the battery
If the electrolyte density of the battery is too high, only water will be decomposed during charging, and it will be difficult for the active material to fully recover its performance
[0007] ③High-frequency pulse: use high current, high voltage, and high frequency for repair, which is prone to heat generation, swelling, swelling, powder removal, low repair rate, serious damage to the plate, and short battery life
Because the voltage is too large, it is dangerous, and it is easy to make the battery generate a lot of heat, aggravate the loss of water, and have great damage to the active material.
[0009] For batteries stored for an extended period of time, when they are not put into use, the water and acid inside the battery are basically not lost, so it is meaningless to use the above ①-② repair methods
In addition, the valve-controlled sealed battery needs to be pried off, and the control of the amount of acid water added is difficult for ordinary people to grasp and control. Improper disposal will also bring potential hidden dangers to quality; and ③-④ (or combined with ①-②) The repair method uses high-frequency pulse and high-current and high-voltage charging methods, which are rarely used due to battery damage and safety issues such as heat generation, water loss, and even swelling during the repair process.

Abstract

The invention discloses an overdue storage battery capacity recovery method. The optimal discharge depth value of a repaired battery is determined by measuring the internal resistance of the battery before repair, predicting the internal vulcanization degree of the battery and comparing the relation curve of the internal resistance / rated capacity ratio and the discharge depth. According to the overdue battery repaired by the method, the storage period is about one year, and the capacity is recovered to a new battery state. When the battery is stored for two years, the capacity is recovered tomore than 90% of that of a new battery. No obvious temperature rise or heave phenomenon exists in the repairing process, no damage is caused to the strength of active substances, and the expected service life is ensured. Various external substances such as repair liquid do not need to be added in the repair process, the process is simple and controllable, and operability is high. Therefore, the old battery is repaired as good as new, the after-sales market battery management cost is saved, resources are effectively utilized, and waste is reduced.

Description

Technical field[0001]The invention relates to the technical field of lead storage battery production, in particular to a method for restoring the capacity of an over-storage battery.Background technique[0002]Due to the characteristics of lead-acid batteries, unused batteries need to be recharged for maintenance every month, especially under high temperature and humidity conditions. The manufacturer has a striking reminder in the battery manual. The excessive and deep self-discharge caused by long-term storage of batteries, combined with the incomplete initial charging of some new batteries, and the insufficient reduction of active materials, the battery sulfation has become an inevitable trend. This kind of hard white lead sulfate crystals formed on the plate is difficult to convert into active lead sulfate. This is the irreversible lead sulfate salting of the plate, which is called "sulfide" for short. The main reason for the formation of such lead sulfate crystals is the self-disc...
