<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent a load placed on a power generation part in a flat plate type SOFC module from reaching or exceeding a predetermined value. <P>SOLUTION: A loading mechanism 21 applies the load on the power generation part 2 constituted by stacking and electrically connecting a plurality of power generation units 1 during initial reduction and normal operation. The loading mechanism 21 includes a press plate 8 arranged on a bolt 10 in a vertically movable state, a ceramic spring 9 attached in an elasticity retained state between the press plate 8 and a top plate 3, and a nut 11 screwed to the bolt 10. Further, burning-preventive sheets 41, 42 formed of material which is never scorched on metal even at a high temperature of about 800°C are interposed between the top plate 3 and a stopper 35 and between the stopper 35 and the press plate 8. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
