Consumer battery comprising a fuel cell

摘要

Consumer battery which comprises an electricity generating unit (EGU) 100 and a fuel carrying unit (FCU) 200 that form a passive tubular fuel cell. The EGU comprises an outer tubular collector 130 and an inner tubular collector 140, so that the parts of the EGU are arranged between both collectors and the inner collector applies an outward pressure on said parts. The EGU also comprises two adjacent electricity generating tubular cells 110 and 120 that are connected in series and that can be arranged either consecutively or concentrically. Each tubular cell comprises a proton exchange membrane that, on each side, has a catalyst and a gas diffuser, and also comprises two or more cylindrical seals for sealing the cell and preventing gas leakage.
