[0002] With the growth of global energy demand and the increasing awareness of environmental protection, the development of clean energy technologies has received unprecedented attention. Among them, fuel cells, as a highly efficient and clean energy conversion device, have received widespread attention in research and application. Proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) have become one of the most promising types of fuel cells due to their high efficiency, low emissions, and rapid start-up. In PEMFCs, the catalyst-coated membrane (CCM) is a core component, and its preparation quality and performance directly affect the overall performance of the cell.
[0003] However, existing fuel cell CCM assembly systems have several shortcomings. First, traditional systems have complex operating procedures requiring frequent manual intervention, leading to low production efficiency. Second, due to the lack of effective positioning and fixing mechanisms, CCMs are prone to displacement during assembly, affecting product quality. Third, traditional assembly-hot pressing systems struggle to achieve uniform heating of each CCM, resulting in inconsistent heating and consequently impacting the final performance of the CCMs. Finally, existing systems have high maintenance costs and complex equipment, increasing the burden on users.
[0004] To address the aforementioned issues, this invention proposes a novel fuel cell CCM assembly system, aiming to simplify the operation process, improve production efficiency, ensure the stability of the CCM during assembly and hot pressing, achieve uniform heating, and reduce maintenance costs, thereby meeting the market demand for efficient, stable, and low-cost fuel cell production equipment.
