Abstract

Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of manifold adapter technology, specifically relating to a manifold adapter. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, hydrogen-oxygen fuel cells are finding increasingly diverse applications, making fuel cell stack testing particularly important. During stack testing, the current lines on the testing equipment are relatively thick, which presents rigidity and space limitations when directly connected to the current collector in the hydrogen-oxygen fuel cell. Therefore, a converter is needed to connect the two.
[0003] However, with the increasingly widespread application of hydrogen-oxygen fuel cells, the current collectors in these cells are constantly evolving with technological advancements. When the current collector of the tested hydrogen-oxygen fuel cell has a low compatibility with the testing equipment, existing adapters require more intermediate components for connection, which is too complex and costly for hydrogen-oxygen fuel cell stack testing, and is not well-suited for hydrogen-oxygen fuel cell stack testing.
[0004] Because the current lines of the current collector and the test equipment need to be connected during the testing process, this is not conducive to the stack testing of hydrogen-oxygen fuel cells. Summary of the Invention

[0009] As an optional technical solution of this utility model, the vertical part is provided with a second mounting hole for fixing the current line.
[0010] As an optional technical solution of this utility model, the horizontal part is provided with a third mounting hole for installing the collector plate connector.
[0011] As an optional technical solution of this utility model, the third mounting hole is provided with a plurality of semi-circular mounting grooves on its periphery, and the collector plate connector is provided with a plurality of semi-circular fixing parts that cooperate with the semi-circular mounting grooves on its periphery.
[0012] As an optional technical solution of this utility model, the collector plate connector is installed in the first mounting hole through a semi-circular fixing part and a semi-circular mounting groove, and is fixed by a fixing member.
