PURPOSE:To prevent displacement caused by a horizontal load such as earthquake by installing holes in each separator and mounting pins to form a stacked structure. CONSTITUTION:A cathode electrode (air electrode) 2 on the upper side of an electrolyte retaining plate 1 and an anode electrode (fuel electrode) 3 on its lower side are placed between separator 4 and they are stacked to assemble a stacked cell. Grooves which cross at right angle each other are installed on the upper and lower surfaces of the separator 4, and grooves on the upper surface form air passage 5 and grooves on the lower surface form fuel passages. Holes 8 are installed diagonally in the separator 4 and pins 9 are inserted into the holes for stacking. A wet sealing part 14 is formed in the circumference of the electrolyte retaining plate 1 to prevent the movement of electrolyte, caused by pressure difference, which is retained by surface tension in the pores of the electrolyte retaining plate 1 and also prevent gas leakage. |
