[0002] After the lead-acid battery is charged with acid once, the electrolyte temperature will continue to rise to the maximum value in the first 4 to 6 hours of formation charging due to the influence of chemical reaction and electrochemical reaction. Excessive temperature during the battery formation process will cause the failure of negative electrode auxiliary materials and accelerate the corrosion of positive electrode grids, affecting the performance of lead-acid batteries. At present, during the formation process of lead-acid batteries, the batteries to be formed are placed in the formation tank, and then circulating water is added to cool the batteries to be formed.

[0003] The patent document with application number CN202221243941.4 and titled "A Lead-acid Battery Formation Tank" discloses a lead-acid battery formation tank in which hot water after absorbing heat rises to the top of the formation tank, overflows from the top of the drainage baffle and enters the drainage tank for discharge. When it is necessary to cool down batteries with smaller specifications, due to the large water storage capacity in the formation tank, the heat generated by the battery inside is difficult to be quickly taken away by the cooling circulating water, resulting in uneven water temperature in the formation tank, affecting the formation quality of the battery. If formation tanks of different sizes are set according to the specifications of the battery, the equipment investment cost is relatively high. Utility Model Content
