A holding member for holding an electrochemical cell, a holding structure for the same, an electrochemical system and a connecting member for electrochemical cells

摘要

The invention provides an assembly structure for facilitating the assembly of laminated single cells, for reducing the possibility of gas leakage after repeated cycles of temperature elevation and reduction, and for preventing the reduction of working efficiency of cells due to the gas leakage. A plate-shaped electrochemical cell 9 made of a ceramic material with a through hole 9a formed therein is held by a holding member 1. The member 1 is made of a ceramic material and has a plate-shaped main body 1a of a shape of a flat plate and a protruded portion 1b protruding from the main body 1a. A first supply hole 2A for supplying one gas and a second supply hole 2B for supplying the other gas are formed in the holding member 1. The main body 1a has a sealing surface 1c against the one main face 9a of the cell 9 while the protruded portion 1b is inserted into the through hole 9a.
