Abstract:
A charging method and an apparatus are provided. The charging method includes: constant-current charging the rechargeable battery until a voltage of the rechargeable battery reaches a first predetermined voltage; and charging the rechargeable battery with a gradually decreasing charging voltage until a charging process is completed. In this way, the capacity of a battery after being fully charged can be further increased while improving the charging speed.

Claim (Index 3):
The method of  claim 1 , wherein, charging the rechargeable battery with the gradually decreasing charging current until the voltage of the rechargeable battery reaches the charging cut-off voltage, comprises:\n constant-current charging the rechargeable battery with the gradually decreasing charging current, until the charging current is decreased to a second charging current; and constant-current charging the rechargeable battery with the second predetermined current, until the voltage of the rechargeable battery reaches the charging cut-off voltage.
