The electrolyte specific gravity of a lead-acid battery changes as it is charged and discharged.

The float 7 is designed to have a specific gravity value at the overdischarge limit. When the storage battery 1 is overdischarged and the specific gravity of the electrolyte drops below the specific gravity value of the float, the float 7 sinks below the liquid level 9 and the specific gravity detection lead When the switch 6 is approached, the reed switch 6 is closed and an alarm is sent to the outside.

With this structure, the diameter of the float 7 is equal to the guide tube 5.
Naturally, it is larger, and therefore, the liquid injection tap has the disadvantage that it cannot be used unless it is large.

In this way, the storage battery specific gravity detector according to the present invention is
The float is placed inside the guide cylinder, and a bar-shaped permanent magnet is used as the permanent magnet, and the permanent magnet is attached vertically to the float so that its axis is on the axis of the reed switch for specific gravity detection. The diameter of the specific gravity detector can be made significantly smaller than that of conventional ones, and it can also be suitably used for storage batteries with small liquid injection plug openings. Also, since a guide protrusion is provided on the outside of the float, which is integrated with the float, the float is guided by the guide protrusion and floats smoothly inside the guide cylinder.
The reed switch can be operated properly at all times. Furthermore, since the bottom of the float is tapered, the gas near the bottom of the float rises along the tapered surface and does not remain attached to the bottom of the float as air bubbles. There is no problem in that excessive buoyancy is applied to the float and prevents accurate operation of the float due to changes in the specific gravity of the electrolyte.

It consists of a permanent magnet 18 and a weight 22 (preferably lead grains) placed in a hollow body 21. The specific gravity of the float is 1260
Set it to, for example, 1250, which is very slightly lower than (the specific gravity of an automobile battery at the end of charging). The specific gravity value can be arbitrarily set depending on the volume of the float and the weights of the hollow body 21, the rod-shaped permanent magnet 18, and the weight 22.
