<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enable wiring of a fuel cell which is capable of efficient wiring operation even in the case of a lot of cells and is less affected by temperature variation. <P>SOLUTION: A lot of cell tubes of cylindrical fuel cells are arranged and fixed in parallel to each other in a fuel cell module. A sheet metal having drilled positions corresponding to the ends of a lot of the cell tubes, respectively, is prepared. On the insides of holes, metallic springs to apply elastic force pushing towards the insides are disposed. Such insertion into the sheet metal that the ends of a lot of the cell tubes penetrate through the holes, respectively, causes electrical connection of the metallic spring to the electrodes of the ends of the cell tubes to electrically connect the electrodes of a lot of the fuel cell at once. Because connection portions are the spring, margins are allowed for temperature deformation. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT |
