After connecting to the power supply, the battery charger obtains power through the power input module 6 to power the other modules of the charger and begin charging.

[0038] In this embodiment, a boost module 8 is also included. When the battery is placed in the battery housing 11, the boost module 8 is electrically connected to the battery, the control module 1, the battery voltage detection module 3, and the display module 4. The boost module 8 is used to increase the input voltage of the battery 20 to power the control module 1, the battery voltage detection module 3, and the display module 4.

With this structure, the cover 13 of the battery charger is rotatably fitted onto the compartment 12 via the pivot, facilitating opening and closing for the user. When the user closes the cover 13 onto the compartment 12, the magnetic element 121 and the magnetic engaging element 131 automatically attract and connect through magnetic force, ensuring that the cover 13 is securely closed onto the compartment 12. This design not only simplifies the closing operation of the cover 13 but also provides a more stable closing state, preventing the charger's performance or safety from being affected by a loose cover 13.

[0045] In this embodiment, the housing 12 includes an outer shell 122 and a charging base 123 disposed within the outer shell 122.

The digital display module 42 includes several digital displays 421. The battery receiving slots 11 are arrayed on the compartment 12, and the cover 13 is provided with digital displays 421 at positions corresponding to the battery receiving slots 11. When the battery voltage detection module 3 detects that the battery 20 is in a first voltage range, the digital displays 421 display the first numerical range. When the battery voltage detection module 3 detects that the battery 20 is in a second voltage range, the digital displays 421 display the second numerical range. When the battery voltage detection module 3 detects that the battery 20 is in a third voltage range, the digital displays 421 display the third numerical range.

[0049] In this embodiment, the first voltage range is 0V-1.3V, and the first numerical range is 0%-33%; the second voltage range is 1.31V-1.45V, and the second numerical range is 34%-66%; the third voltage range is 1.46V-1.5V, and the third numerical range is 67%-100%. By setting the digital display module 42 and the specific voltage range corresponding to the power display, the user can clearly and intuitively understand the power status of each battery 20. The percentage display on the digital display screen 421 can accurately convey the remaining power of the battery 20, avoiding the ambiguity of traditional chargers that only use indicator lights 411 or simple icons to indicate the power of the battery 20, thereby improving the user experience and ease of use.
