Die Erfindung wird im folgenden unter Bezugnahme auf die Figur näher beschrieben, die ein Schaltungsdiagramm in Blockform wiedergibt.The invention is described in more detail below with reference to the figure, which is a circuit diagram in block form reproduces.

Eine Batterie B soll mittels eines Ladegerätes 5 in Form eines Konst'antstrom-Generators aufgeladen werden.A battery B should by means of a charger 5 in the form of a Constant current generator are charged.

Die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung ist an die Batterie B und das Ladegerät 5 angeschlossen, um während des Ladevorganges die Gasbildung zu überwachen bzw. zu messen. Die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung umfaßt ein erstes Differenziergerät 1, ein zweites Differenziergerät 2, einen Gleichrichter 3, ein Filter 4, die alle in Reihe liegen, und einen Niveauabtastvergleicher 6, der zur Steuerung des Ladegerätes 5 dient.The device according to the invention is connected to the battery B and the charger 5 to during the charging process to monitor or measure the gas formation. The device according to the invention comprises a first differentiating device 1, a second differentiator 2, a rectifier 3, a filter 4, all of which are in series, and a level scanning comparator 6, which is used to control the charger 5.

Beim Betrieb der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung wird so gearbeitet, daß die Klemmenspannung des Akkumulators in den in Kaskade geschalteten Differenziergeräten 1 und 2 zweifach differenziert wird. Das erste Differenziergerät leitet die Klemmenspannung in Abhängigkeit von der Zeit ab, und das zweite Differenziergerät leitet hinsichtlich der Zeit die zeitliche Ableitung ab, die von dem ersten Differenziergerät 1 erhaltenThe operation of the device according to the invention is carried out in such a way that that the terminal voltage of the accumulator in the cascaded differentiators 1 and 2 is doubled is differentiated. The first differentiator derives the terminal voltage as a function of time, and the second Differentiating device derives the time derivative with regard to time that is obtained from the first differentiating device 1

wird. Die auf diese Weise erhaltene zweite zeitliche Ableitung der Klemmenspannung hat positive und negative Abweichungen bzw. Schwankungen und wird in dem Gleichrichter 3 gleichgerichtet und in dem Filter 4 gefiltert. Die von dem Filter 4 erhaltene Gleichspannung ist ein Maß für die Intensität des Gaserzeugungsprozesses in dem Akkumulator, und dessen Gleichspannungsniveau wird in dem Vergleicher 6 abgetastet bzw. ermittelt. Die in Frage stehende Gleichspannung wird in Abhängigkeit von der Erhöhung der Gaserzeugung in dem Akkumulator während des Ladeprozesses anwachsen,,will. The second time derivative of the terminal voltage obtained in this way has positive and negative deviations or fluctuations and is rectified in the rectifier 3 and filtered in the filter 4. The filter 4 The DC voltage obtained is a measure of the intensity of the gas generation process in the accumulator and its DC voltage level is sampled or determined in the comparator 6. The DC voltage in question is dependent on from the increase in gas generation in the accumulator during the charging process,

Mit der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung bestehen zumindest zwei Möglichkeiten zur Steuerung des Aufladens des Akkumulators.With the device according to the invention there are at least two possibilities for controlling the charging of the accumulator.

Die eine Möglichkeit besteht darin, daß, wenn die Gaserzeugungsintensität ein bestimmtes vorgegebenes Maß annimmt, d.h. wenn die beschriebene Gleichspannung einen bestimmten Wert erreicht, der Aufladeprozeß ganz ablaufen wird. In diesem Fall ist ein verhältnismäßig hoher Ladestrom verwendet worden, und der Akkumulator ist voll aufgeladen, wenn dieses Intensitätsmaß bzw. der vorgegebene Gleichspannungswert erreicht worden ist.One possibility is that when the gas generation intensity assumes a certain predetermined level, i.e. when the described direct voltage reaches a certain value, the charging process will complete. In this case, a relatively high charging current has been used, and the accumulator is fully charged when this intensity level or the specified DC voltage value has been reached is.

Der von dem Ladegerät kommende Ladestrom I wird dann direkt auf Null reduziert, und zwar aufgrund der automatischen Steuerung des Ladegerätes durch den Vergleicher 6 in Abhängigkeit von der von dem Filter 4 kommende Spannung, die ein bestimmtes Niveau entsprechend der vollen Akkumulatorladung erreicht hat.The charging current I coming from the charger is then reduced directly to zero due to the automatic control of the charger through the comparator 6 depending on the voltage coming from the filter 4, which is a certain Has reached the level corresponding to the full battery charge.

Eine zweite Möglichkeit besteht darin, daß dann,, wenn der Gaserzeugungsprozeß, verglichen mit der zuerst beschriebenen Möglichkeit, ein bestimmtes niedrigeres Maß erreicht, der Ladestrom fortschreitend mittels des Vergleichers 6 reduziert" wird, der auf ein anderes niedrigeres Niveau eingestellt ist«. In diesem Fall wird der Umfang der Gaserzeugung in dem Akkumulator auf einem niedrigen konstanten Wert gehalten.A second possibility is that, when the gas generation process, compared to the first described possibility, the charging current reaches a certain lower level progressively reduced by means of the comparator 6 " which is set to another lower level «. In this case, the amount of gas generation in the accumulator becomes held at a low constant value.
