Embodiment Construction

[0046] Embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. image 3 The fixing mechanism of the fuel cell stack according to the first embodiment of the present invention is shown.

[0047] like image 3 As shown, MEAs and separators are stacked alternately to form a fuel cell stack 11, and end plates 12a and 12b are installed at both ends of the fuel cell stack 11, respectively.

[0048]The fuel cell according to the embodiment of the present invention includes a first fixing band 21 and a second fixing band 22 designed in a U shape.

[0049] The first fixing band 21 extends on two sides of the fuel cell stack 11 parallel to each other, and the second fixing band extends on a side parallel to each other, which is different from the side on which the first fixing band is placed.

[0050] Open ends of the first and second fixing straps 21 and 22 elastically press the different end plates 12a and 12b, and the firs...

Abstract

A fixing mechanism for a fuel cell, comprising: a pair of end plates, which are respectively installed at both ends of the fuel cell stack to support the fuel cell stack; and a plurality of fixing straps extending in the stacking direction of the fuel cell stack for The end plate is pressed by a predetermined pressure. This securing mechanism allows for uniform pressure on the separator and improves the sealing of the fuel cell stack.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention generally relates to a fuel cell. More particularly, the present invention relates to a fixing mechanism for a fuel cell stack having a plurality of unit cells separated by a separator, wherein the surface pressure on the separator becomes more uniform by reducing the bending load acting on the separator . Background technique [0002] Typically, fuel cells use hydrogen H 2 and oxygen O 2 React to generate electricity and include Membrane Electrode Assembly (MEA). [0003] The MEA includes a supply of hydrogen H 2 The anode and the cathode supplied with air are interposed between them to transport hydrogen ions H + electrolyte film. These MEAs and separators are stacked alternately to form a fuel cell stack. [0004] The sum of the output voltages of each unit cell constitutes the output voltage of the fuel cell stack. [0005] The performance of a fuel cell stack can be measured in terms of its output voltage level, and t...
