<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an air humidification device for a fuel cell for making use of generated water which is generated by power generation of the fuel cell for humidifying reaction air, for suppressing the enlargement of the device and an increase in its weight by maintaining the constitution to humidify the reaction air simple, and for saving the consumption of power by making electrical equipment such as a valve or a pump unnecessary. <P>SOLUTION: There are provided an air filter 22a eliminating dust in the reaction air, and a water guiding pipe 84 in which while one end 84a connected to the fuel cell 12 (specifically, installed below a reaction air exhausting opening 80a of the fuel cell 12) and another end 84b is installed above the air filter 22a. At the same time, an air filter 22a is moisturized by having the generated water generated by the power generation of the fuel cell 12 dropped onto it through the water guiding pipe 84. Therefore, the reaction air fed to an air pole of the fuel cell 12 through the air filter 22a is humidified. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI |
