They're used at the start of the turn or when the unit benefits from an ability that says they can Reinforce (like Relics of Ancient Malifaux's Healing Magic).

You can spend one (and ONLY one) Reinforcement Token then to either flip an asset back over OR to put 2 killed models back on the unit's fireteams.  You can bring back killed fireteams in the unit this way, but only if the living ones are already on a full model count, and it comes back with however many models you still have to Reinforce.  As an example, if you have a 3-fireteam unit with one full health fireteam, one fireteam that lost one model, and one killed fireteam, in the Reinforcement step the injured fireteam can be given its model back and the killed fireteam can come back with one model on it.

Ok, this is making more sense, but does the unit need to have an asset in order to reinforce or is that just a separate option for the tokens?

Nope, it's one or the other.  If the unit is missing models it can Reinforce to bring them back, or if the unit has a damaged Asset it can Reinforce to repair it.

Where in the rules stated that the squad can receive reinforcements only once per phase? What prevents me from getting reinforcements twice by spending one token each time?

Here is a more recent discussion on your question. (I don't have the rules to hand but from what I remember reinforce is written as when you reinforce you discard 1 token. If you have a way to get multiple reinforces then you can discard 1 token for each)
