METHOD AND ELECTRIC CIRCUIT FOR INCREASING THE LIFE OF STORAGE BATTERIES

摘要

The object of the invention is a method for increasing the life of storage batteries, in the course of which a part of the chemical energy stored in the battery is utilized for the treatment of the battery. The essence of the method is that a small fraction of the chemical energy stored in the battery (of the order of the chemical energy used up in the course of self-discharging of the battery) is continuously transformed into electric energy. The charge gained this way is stored and accumulated, and at stated intervals this charge is fed back to the battery in the form of a short pulse. This process is continuously repeated. The object of the invention is an electronic circuit as well.
