Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of fuel cells, and in particular relates to a liquid-path built-in aluminum-air fuel cell unit and a cell stack. Background technique [0002] Aluminum-air battery uses active metal aluminum as fuel source, air or oxygen as oxidant, alkaline solution or neutral salt solution as electrolyte, and converts chemical energy stored in metal aluminum into electrical energy through electrochemical reaction. Although the aluminum-air fuel cell has many advantages, its current monomer structure has the following disadvantages: First, the traditional monomer liquid delivery is realized by adding many electrolyte liquid pipes, and each monomer has a liquid inlet channel. The pipes and one outlet liquid pipe have complex structures, low degree of engineering, complicated guarantee, inconvenient operation, and many liquid pipe interfaces; the second is that the positive and negative electrodes of the traditional monomer a...

Although the aluminum-air fuel cell has many advantages, its current monomer structure has the following disadvantages: First, the traditional monomer liquid delivery is realized by adding many electrolyte liquid pipes, and each monomer has a liquid inlet channel. The pipes and one outlet liquid pipe have complex structures, low degree of engineering, complicated guarantee, inconvenient operation, and many liquid pipe interfaces; the second is that the positive and negative electrodes of the traditional monomer are connected by welding the connecting wires on the The conductive current collector of the air electrode is realized from above. This method has a low degree of engineering, and is bonded after manual welding. The manufacturing process of the monomer is complicated, inconvenient to operate, and not beautiful. The third is that the traditional monomer air electrode and the monomer matrix frame are sealed with AB
