<p>The invention is an improved fuel cell sealing system comprising a proton exchange membrane (36) sandwiched between an anode plate and a cathode plate (16, 18). A gasket (40) is provided to seal the proton exchange membrane with the anode and cathode plates. The gasket and proton exchange membrane are formed as a unitary assembly by directly molding the gasket to the proton exchange membrane, which provides structural support for the PEM and increases the ease of handling and permitting the automated assembly of multiple fuel cells.</p> |
