  • Publication number: 20230275243
    Abstract: A fuel cell includes a discharge structure that discharges water generated in a cathode electrode in association with an electrode reaction in the MEA to the outside. The discharge structure includes a discharge path through which air that is an oxidant flows, a passage that communicably connects an oxidant supply flow path and the discharge path and that moves water generated in the cathode electrode to the discharge path, and a discharge portion that discharges the generated water moved to the discharge path to the outside.

  • Patent number: 7220090
    Abstract: A linear motor actuated machine tool includes a bed, a column, upper and lower X-axis guides, a saddle, upper and lower X-axis linear motor magnets, and upper and lower X-axis linear motor coils. Upper and lower X-axis guides are attached to the upper and lower portion of front surface of the column, which is mounted on the bed in the vertical direction, in the horizontal direction. Upper and lower X-axis linear motor magnets is fixed on the front surface of the column at upper side and lower side of the upper and lower X-axis guides in the direction of X-axis with making pole surfaces thereof face to frontward. Upper and lower X-axis linear motor coils are fixed to upper end and lower end of the rear surface of the saddle, which is mounted on the front surface of the column with being guided by upper and lower X-axis guides and having a through space at the center portion thereof, with opposing to upper and lower X-axis linear motor.
