Of course, the number of the first acid outlet pipes 11 can be increased or decreased according to the actual needs.
[0062] Two lead-acid batteries 91 connected in parallel between a pair of circulation interface inlet pipes 21 and circulation interface outlet pipes 22 can simultaneously carry out acid circulation internalization. Of course, the number of lead-acid batteries is only for illustration, and the parallel number of lead-acid batteries can be set as required during actual use.
[0063] Each first acid outlet pipe 11 is provided with a first valve 13, and each first acid outlet pipe 11 is connected to the same first acid return pipe 12. The first acid return pipe 12 is provided with a first acid pump 15. A second valve 14 is provided in a section of the first acid return pipe 12 between the first acid pump 15 and the circulation working tank 10.
[0064] By controlling the opening and closing of the first valve 13 and the second valve 14, the amount of acid flowing out of each lead-acid battery 91 and the amount of acid flowing out of the lead-acid battery 91 and into the circulation working tank 10 are controlled.

[0067] Before the initial acid addition, the acid solution needs to be heated so that the temperature of the acid solution is between 35°C and 65°C. After the acid solution flows into each lead-acid battery 91 for formation, the temperature will rise. When the temperature of the acid solution in the lead-acid battery 91 rises to 75°C, it needs to be discharged and cooled before the next use. Therefore, a cooling mechanism and a heating mechanism 50 need to be set in the system.
[0068] The low-density acid tank 40 has a second acid outlet pipe 41 and a second acid return pipe 42. The second acid outlet pipe 41 is connected to a section of the first acid return pipe 12 located before the first acid pump 15.

[0071] After the lead-acid battery 91 is fully charged, the acid solution in the lead-acid battery 91 needs to be discharged and the second density (1.280 g / cm 3 -1.315g / cm 3 ) is imported into the lead-acid battery 91, the second density acid solution stored in the high-density acid tank 60 is obtained by mixing in advance in the circulation working tank 10 before formation begins, and the acid solution of the second density also needs to flow into the circulation working tank 10 first when importing the lead-acid battery 91, so the 3rd acid return pipe 62 and the 3rd acid outlet pipe 61 all must be communicated with the first acid return pipe 12.
[0072] A detection branch pipe is provided between one of the circulation interface inlet pipes 21 and a section of the first acid return pipe 12 before the first acid pump 15. The detection branch pipe is provided with a densitometer 92 for detecting the density of the acid liquid and a first flow meter 93 for detecting the flow rate of the acid liquid.
[0073] During the entire chemical formation process, the density of the acid solution will change, so it is necessary to test the density of the acid solution to confirm again where this batch of acid solution needs to be directed.
[0074] A filter element 94 for filtering the acid solution is provided on the first acid return pipe 12 , at the upstream side of the first acid pump 15 .
[0075] The acid liquid flowing out of the lead-acid battery 91 is involved in the chemical formation process, so the acid liquid will contain impurities such as lead paste dropped from the pole plate, so it is necessary to set a filter element 94 to filter it.
[0076] The acid circulation internal formation system of the lead-acid battery of the present application further comprises a concentrated alkali tank 95 for storing alkali solution, and the concentrated alkali tank 95 is connected to the circulation working tank 10 via an alkali solution inlet pipe 97 , and a seventh valve 98 and a second flow meter 96 are provided on the alkali solution inlet pipe 97 .
[0077] When high-density acid solution is prepared, concentrated alkali needs to be used, so it is appropriate to set up a concentrated alkali tank 95 for storing concentrated alkali. Of course, alkali solution is also needed for regular pipeline cleaning.
