Description

A kind of fuel cell end plate
Technical field
The present invention relates to fuel cell technology field, be specifically related to a kind of fuel cell end plate.
Background technology
Fuel cell is high with its energy conversion efficiency, noise is low, low-carbon (LC), zero discharge, flexible and convenient to use, operating temperature is low, energy density advantages of higher, is more and more liked by people and uses.Fuel cell is mainly divided into the five large classes such as phosphate fuel cell (PAFC), Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells (PEMFC), alkaline fuel cell (AFC), molten carbonate fuel cell (MCFC), Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC).Fuel cell need to be assembled into pile by the mode of series connection by multiple cells conventionally.The indoor design of pile and mounting technology determine the performance of pile, determine the output of pile.
Fuel cell pile is mainly made up of membrane electrode (MEA), bipolar plates, collector plate, end plate and fastening bolt etc.Fuel cell is fixed field, and traditional fixed form is to utilize many standing screws of two outer end plates to be connected and fixed, and this fixed mode is had relatively high expectations to machining tolerances such as MEA, bipolar plates and end plates, has increased the production cost of pile.If the machining accuracy of the each parts of pile is inadequate, cause the pile inside inequality that is stressed, can cause the scale error of pile surrounding larger, be not easy to the pile standardization of product-quality indicators and produce; Due to the pile inside inequality that is stressed, can cause the parts contact elasticity of pile inside different, cause the internal resistance of pile to increase, along with pile uses, performance can decline to a great extent.Sometimes, the pile inside inequality that is stressed, can cause bipolar plates or MEA to damage.
Denomination of invention is " for the end plate of battery system and use the battery system of this end plate " (application number: 200810088784.2), a kind of end plate for battery system is disclosed, this end plate is that multiple rib structures are prepared in stacked mode, so that end plate has stronger structural rigidity, pressure obtains being evenly distributed in battery pack, but this structure is in the time that the machining tolerance of MEA and cell bipolar plate thickness is larger, still cannot solve the problem of isostasy.
Denomination of invention is " having the fuel cell of well-distributed pressure device " (application number: 01124222.1) disclose a kind of fuel cell with well-distributed pressure device, comprise two end versions, each end plate has a middle section and a peripheral edge margin, be located at the fuel cell pack between the middle section of this two end plate, be located at the tying device on this two end plate, and a well-distributed pressure device, comprise at least one pressure bellows, be fixedly arranged on this battery pile and wherein with between end plate.Change because of the caused pressure of expanding with heat and contract with cold by well-distributed pressure device adjustment, in this structure, pressure bellows directly contact with battery pile, need the area of pressure bellows almost to approach the area of battery pile, complicated structure; Otherwise the change in location of pressure bellows will cause pressure to change, and cannot reach the object of counterpressure.
Denomination of invention is " fuel cell end plate " (application number is 200480001636.2), a kind of fuel cell end plate is disclosed, comprise first, second structure member, connect multiple vertical member of the first structure member and the second structure member, fuel cell end plate is configured to laminating and transmits substantially constant pressure with the surface of fuel cell with the surface along described fuel cell.Be out of shape or fit in the example of unparalleled surface of terminal fuel cell at fuel cell end plate, the first and second structure members of end plate are substantially parallel transmits substantially invariable pressure to stride across the surface of terminal fuel cell.This structure can not effectively solve the pressure balanced problem of inside configuration.
Summary of the invention
Goal of the invention: the object of the invention is to for the deficiencies in the prior art, a kind of fuel cell end plate that can make the equilibrium of fuel cell pile internal pressure is provided.
Technical scheme: a kind of fuel cell end plate of the present invention, be suitable for being disposed at the two ends of fuel cell unit, this end plate comprises outer end plate, pressure buffer and pressure distributed equalization plate three parts; Described pressure buffer is elastomeric element, is vertically set between described outer end plate and pressure distributed equalization plate.By secure component, the end plate at battery pack two ends is closely linked together, pressure buffer and pressure distributed equalization plate can effectively regulate the machining tolerance due to MEA and cell bipolar plate thickness, the pile surrounding height heterogeneity causing and the phenomenon of inner discontinuity equalization.
In order to prevent that pressure buffer from sliding, on the medial surface of described outer end plate, be provided with pressure buffer fixed leg, one end of pressure buffer is set on pressure buffer fixed leg.
Preferably, described pressure buffer inside is cylindrical structural.
In order to facilitate the fixing of pile, on the side of described outer end plate, be provided with the T-shaped draw-in groove with work type fastener end adaptation; The side correspondence position of described pressure distributed equalization plate is provided with the adaptive draw-in groove in work type securing member middle part.
Preferably, described pressure buffer is elastic performance metal material or nonmetallic materials are made.
The present invention compared with prior art, its beneficial effect is: the present invention regulates by the pressure of self inside, solve the inner unbalance stress local pressure of the pile causing because of the each parts machining error of pile excessive, the problem that pile surrounding apparent size differs greatly; Can reduce the requirement to the each device fabrication tolerance in pile inside, effectively reduce the processing cost of the inner each parts of pile, improve production efficiency.Due to the pressure self-adjusting joint of pile inside, pile life-span and performance are improved.Guaranteeing, under the condition that apparent size is constant, can to meet pile inside due to the space requirement that expands with heat and contract with cold.
