[0002] Lead-acid batteries, as rechargeable secondary batteries, are widely used in backup, power, and energy storage applications. After production, the battery voltage needs to be tested, and batteries with similar voltage values ​​are packaged together to facilitate their use in the same vehicle or equipment.

The automatic battery measuring mechanism forms a battery testing position by controlling a baffle plate. The testing components are installed on both sides of the battery testing position and consist of two cylinder assemblies with probes.
