This threshold value is set as follows for the following reason. The charging method of the charging means of the present embodiment is constant voltage / constant current charging. When charging the discharged storage battery 2, a large current flows at the beginning of charging, and when the storage battery voltage reaches a certain voltage, the charging current is reduced. It is a charging method that causes the battery to hang down. In the case of constant voltage constant current charging, the charging current at the end of charging is much smaller than the charging current at the beginning of charging. However, the charging current at the end of charging has a characteristic that it increases with the deterioration of the storage battery 2. Storage battery 2
Is composed of a plurality of cells, when the storage battery 2 deteriorates and the internal impedance of a certain cell decreases or short-circuits, the voltage applied to other cells increases, and the charging current at the end of charging decreases. growing. Therefore, a current value between the charge current value at the end of charging before the storage battery 2 reaches the end of its life and the charge current value at the end of charge after the end of the life of the storage battery 2 is set as the threshold value in advance. More specifically, the charging current flowing through the storage battery 2 was defined as an IC, the current flowing through the storage battery 2 at the end of charging when the storage battery 2 was charged before the end of life was charged, and the storage battery 2 after the end of the life was charged. In this case, when the current flowing through the storage battery 2 is ICE2 and the threshold current in the charging current detecting means 3 is ICD, the relationship between these current values is set as follows.

ICE1 <ICD <ICE2 The microcomputer 4 starts a built-in timer when the charging current IC> ICD. As shown in FIG. 2, the charging current IC at the initial stage of charging is equal to or larger than the ICD. Therefore, when the storage battery 2 is charged, the timer built in the microcomputer 4 starts. When the charging is continued and the voltage VB of the storage battery 2 reaches the constant voltage value VB1 of the charging means 1, the charging means 1 drops the charging current IC while keeping the voltage of the storage battery 2 substantially constant. After this, the charging current IC becomes IC <ICD at some point, and finally, the current value IC at the end of charging IC
E1 is reached. The timer is set to stop when IC <ICD, and the time from timer start to stop is T1. In addition, this timer is set to measure until a predetermined time T0 when the state of IC> ICD continues. Here, the relationship between T0 and T1 is set so that T1 <T0.

FIG. 2 shows the change of the voltage of the storage battery 2 and the charging current IC of the charging means 1 with time from the start of charging until the charging current reaches ICE1. This shows a case where the charging current from the initial stage of charging to immediately before dripping is substantially constant. As shown in the figure, when the IC becomes ICD within a certain time T1, the storage battery 2 is regarded as normal, and the microcomputer 4 sets the alarm means 5

However, the end-of-charge current ICE2 of the storage battery after the end of its life remains larger than the ICD, and the microcomputer 4 determines that the storage battery 2 has deteriorated after the timer inside the microcomputer 4 has continued measurement until the specified time T0.

However, when the storage battery 2 deteriorates, the timer built in the microcomputer 4 starts when the terminal current of the charge exceeds the ICD. The microcomputer 4 also when this state IC> has elapsed T0 while sustained state of ICD determines that the storage battery 2 has deteriorated, and outputs to the alarm to the user to the alarm means 5.
