A fuel cell (10) includes a plurality of metal clip members (56) for holding outer regions of first and second metal separators (24, 26) at a plurality of positions. Each of the metal clip member (56) includes a side plate (68) and first and second holding portions (70, 72). The side plate (68) is curved at opposite ends, and the first and second holding portions (70, 72) are extending from the opposite ends of the side plate (68). The first and second holding portions (70, 72) generates a predetermined elastic force for holding the first and second metal separators (24, 26). The outer ends of the first and second metal separators (24, 26) are covered by insulating sections, and the insulating sections are held between the first and second holding portions (70, 72) so that the entire unit cell (12) is tightened by the predetermined elastic force. <IMAGE> |
