Abstract

The invention relates to a bipolar plate forming technology, in particular to super-plastic forming device and process of a metal bipolar plate for a proton exchange membrane fuel cell. The device comprises a pressure plate, guide sleeves, springs, guide posts, a pressing rod, an environmental box, an upper template, a lower template, a base, a connection plate, a blank pressing plate, a metal plate and a support rod. The process implemented by the device comprises the following steps: (1) opening the environmental box; (2) fixing a metal sheet of a processed part on the lower template; (3) closing the environmental box, determining the super-plastic forming temperature according to a processed plate and inputting the super-plastic forming temperature into a control system; (4) setting the stroke and the movement rate of the upper template according to the super-plastic strain rate and flow channel shape of the processed plate; (5) starting a circuit system and the environmental box, starting a pressure forming machine to move downwards, and finishing stamping; (6) starting the upper template of a press to reversely return back to the initial position; and (7) opening the environmental box, and cooing and taking out a formed part. According to the super-plastic forming device and process, the material is effectively prevented from rebounding, and the forming accuracy and the dimensional accuracy are ensured.

Description

1. Technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of forming bipolar plates for proton exchange membrane fuel cells, in particular to a superplastic forming device and process for metal bipolar plates of proton exchange membrane fuel cells. 2. Background technology [0002] A fuel cell is a power generation device that directly converts chemical energy stored in fuel and oxidant into electrical energy. It has the advantages of high energy conversion efficiency and low environmental pollution. It has become an alternative to existing fossil fuel power generation equipment and fossil fuel power equipment. best choice. Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC), which uses hydrogen as raw material, has the characteristics of cleanness, high efficiency and regeneration. It is considered to be the preferred power generation technology in the 21st century. Application prospect. [0003] As one of the key components of PEMFC, the bipolar plate not only accoun...
