Date Nov. 25, 1993The charging device for charging a plurality of rechargeable batteries according to the invention includes at least two sensors associated with each rechargeable battery for measuring a measurable parameter, e.g. voltage, temperature, etc, of the rechargeable battery associated therewith; switchable devices for electrically connecting one or more rechargeable batteries at a time for charging; a control device for selecting rechargeable batteries for charging in an order determined by measured values of the measurable parameters obtained from the sensors associated with each rechargeable battery. The control device includes a device for weighting the measured parameters of each of the rechargeable batteries according to a priority factor to obtain weighted combined values, a device for comparing said weighted combined values to at least one predetermined limiting value to determine the order in which the rechargeable batteries are selected for charging and a device for controlling the switchable device to connect the rechargeable batteries for charging according to that order.</p> |
