Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a polar plate of a hydrogen production electrolytic cell. Background Art

[0002] Alkaline water electrolysis is a common water electrolysis hydrogen production technology. Its basic principle is to decompose water into hydrogen and oxygen through water electrolysis. In hydrogen production equipment, the electrolyzer is its core equipment. In the process of alkaline water electrolysis hydrogen production, alkaline electrolyte is usually used as the electrolyte. The electrolyte in the hydrogen production electrolyzer provides ion conductivity.

[0003] The two circular plates are used as the anode plate and cathode plate respectively. The nipple structure on the plate is formed by stamping, and a channel is formed in the middle to allow the electrolyte to pass through. The pole frame set on the outside of the plate is circular and made of carbon steel. It has a large volume and weight. The thickness of the pole frame is more than 10mm. The single section size is large and heavy, and the material utilization rate is not high. In addition, the process of turning, milling, welding, and leveling the plate and pole frame is time-consuming and costly, resulting in low output. Therefore, it takes a lot of cost and time to make a set of pole frames and plates. Summary of the invention

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to overcome the above-mentioned shortcomings and provide a polar plate for a hydrogen production electrolyzer with low cost, high production efficiency and convenient production.

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is achieved in this way:

[0006] A polar plate for a hydrogen production electrolyzer, the polar plate is mainly formed by stacking multiple plates up and down, two adjacent plates are placed front and back, each plate is circular, and a corrugation is provided in the middle of the plate. The plate is punched once by a press, and the corrugation between the two adjacent plates forms a liquid channel for allowing electrolyte to pass through. After the plates are stacked, sealing gaskets are added, and then tension bolts are used to vertically pass through the edges of the plates to fix all the plates together.

[0007] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0008] The plate of this type of hydrogen production electrolyzer is punched out into a complete plate by a press, and the plates are matched with each other. At least one sealing groove is opened on the edge of the plate, and a protruding sealing ring is placed in the sealing groove, so that it can replace the pole frame and play a sealing role. In this way, there is no need to make a pole frame, and the processes of turning, milling, welding, and leveling are omitted, which improves the production efficiency of the plate, reduces the production cost, and thus increases the output.
