ー接続端子である。FIG. 1 shows a block diagram of a first embodiment of the present invention. The charging control circuit 1 shown in FIG. 1 is a conventional battery charger. The discharge control circuit 2 is a discharger for discharging the remaining capacity of the battery before charging. 1st
In this embodiment, the battery charge/discharge switching control circuit 3 detects the remaining capacity of the battery 2 and controls whether to proceed to charging after discharging or to proceed directly to charging. That is, the configuration is such that the battery charging/discharging switching control circuit 3 switches the switching device 4. Note that 7 is a battery connection terminal for the NiCd battery 8.

すことができる。As described above, according to this embodiment, a charged battery does not start discharging (it operates in the same way as a conventional charger), but a used battery does not start discharging until -1
Since the iCd battery is discharged to its optimal final voltage (less than rs, o V for eV batteries) and then charged,
The best charging/discharging cycle μ can always be repeated for the battery.
以下、本発明の第２の実施例について図面上参照しなが

ｅ設けた点である。FIG. 2 is a block diagram of a second embodiment of the invention. Click the button in the same figure to select charging control circuit 1. Discharge control circuit 2. The battery charge/discharge switching control circuit 3 has the same configuration as that shown in FIG. What is different from the configuration shown in Figure 1 is the mode switching switch f for operating battery charge/discharge switching control.
This is the point provided by e.
