Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of lead-acid batteries, and particularly relates to an acid adding pot for lead-acid batteries. Background Technique

[0002] A lead-acid battery is a storage battery whose electrodes are mainly made of lead and its oxides, and the electrolyte is a sulfuric acid solution. When the lead-acid battery discharges, lead dioxide at the positive electrode and spongy lead at the negative electrode are converted into lead sulfate; when charging, lead sulfate at the positive and negative electrodes is respectively converted into lead dioxide and spongy lead.

[0003] Formation is a key process in the production of lead-acid batteries. Through charge and discharge, the positive active material is converted into lead dioxide, and the negative active material is converted into spongy lead. The acid adding pot is a container for storing sulfuric acid solution during the formation process of the battery.

[0004] For example, the utility model patent with the authorization publication number CN218919010U discloses an acid adding pot for negative pressure formation, including a pot body and a pot cover. The pot body further includes support rods fixed at the bottom of the cavity, on opposite sides of the acid outlet hole, for fixing the acid adding pot on the storage battery. In this prior art, the support rods are an integral structure with the pot body, and the support rods are easily knocked off during use, resulting in the scrapping of the entire acid adding pot. Therefore, the structure of the acid adding pot needs to be further improved to enhance its durability.
