Specifically, referring to fig. 11, a charging circuit structure provided on a charging stand is shown. The charging circuit 35' disposed on the charging stand includes an over-temperature protection circuit 354 and an equalizing charging unit.

The first equalizing charge unit 352a' is used to explain the structure and operation principle thereof.
The equalizing charge unit 352a' includes a twenty-first resistor R21, a fifth voltage regulator D9, a twenty-second resistor R22, a fifth switch Q5, and a third diode D10.
Specifically, the twenty-first resistor R21 is a voltage dividing resistor, and the fifth regulator D9 is a regulator. The twenty-first resistor R21 is connected with the positive and negative ends of the first battery unit BT1 in parallel, and the voltage-dividing end of the twenty-first resistor R21 is connected with the voltage-stabilizing end of the fifth voltage-stabilizing tube D9. One end of a twenty-second resistor R22 is connected with the negative electrode of the first battery unit BT1, the other end of the twenty-second resistor R22 is connected with the negative electrode of a fifth voltage-regulator tube D9, and the positive electrode of the fifth voltage-regulator tube D9 is connected with the positive electrode of the first battery unit BT 1.

The fifth voltage regulator tube D9 is a controllable precise voltage regulator structure, and the current charging voltage of the first battery cell BT1 is collected through the twenty-first resistor R21, and through the arrangement of the fifth voltage regulator tube D9 and the twenty-second resistor R22, when the voltage at the two ends of the first battery cell BT1 reaches a preset voltage threshold (i.e., full charge), the fifth switch tube Q5 is turned on, so as to isolate the first battery cell BT1, the charging power supply does not charge the first battery cell BT1 any more, and the rest of the battery cells are continuously charged, so that the battery overcharge can be prevented, and the service life of the battery pack price is further prolonged.
Furthermore, the equalizing charge unit 352a' further includes a twenty-third resistor R23, a third led D11, and a twenty-third resistor R23 connected in series with the third led D11 and then connected in parallel with the third diode D10.

In the over-temperature protection circuit 354, the twenty-ninth resistor R29 is an NTC temperature-sensing resistor, and is located in the battery assembly 200 for detecting the temperature of the battery cells during the charging process. Due to the characteristics of the NTC temperature-sensing resistor, the higher the temperature is, the smaller the resistance value thereof is, so when the resistance value of the twenty-ninth resistor R29 is less than or equal to a certain value, the reverse voltage loaded on the seventh voltage-regulator tube D15 makes the seventh voltage-regulator tube D15 break down in the reverse direction, and at this time, the voltage of the seventh switch tube Q7 is reduced, so that the seventh switch tube Q7 is in a cut-off state, the connection between the DC input and the battery assembly 200 is cut off, and the charging of the battery assembly 200 is stopped. On the contrary, when the resistance of the twenty-ninth resistor R29 is smaller than a certain value, the seventh regulator D15 is not broken down, and the seventh switch Q7 is in a conducting state, so as to continuously charge the battery pack 200.
In this embodiment, the seventh voltage regulator tube D15 is a controllable precision voltage regulator structure, and the parameters of the twenty-seventh resistor R27, the twenty-ninth resistor R29, and the seventh voltage regulator tube D15 are selected so that when the temperature of the battery unit in the charging process is greater than or equal to a preset temperature threshold value, the seventh voltage regulator tube D15 is turned off, the charging of the battery assembly 200 is stopped, and the charging protection of the battery assembly 200 in an over-temperature state is realized.
