Patent number: 11652217Abstract: A fuel cell is provided to include a cell stack in which unit cells are stacked in a first direction, an end plate disposed at the end of the cell stack, and a current-collecting plate disposed between the end plate and the end of the cell stack. The current-collecting plate includes a conductive area having a conductive surface, which is in electrically conductive surface contact with a reaction surface of the end of the cell stack, and configured to collect power generated by the cell stack, and an airtight area having an airtight surface, which is in airtight surface contact with a non-reaction surface of the end of the cell stack, and surrounding the conductive area. The degree to which the conductive surface protrudes toward the end of the cell stack is different from the degree to which the airtight surface protrudes toward the end of the cell stack.Type: GrantFiled: October 5, 2020Date of Patent: May 16, 2023Assignees: Hyundai Motor Company, Kia Motors CorporationInventor: Hyun Woong Ko

Patent number: 11450875Abstract: A fuel cell is provided that includes a cell stack having a plurality of unit cells stacked in a first direction. An enclosure is disposed to surround the cell stack and includes an inlet that suctions external air and an outlet that discharges air that has been suctioned through the inlet and has circulated in the space between the cell stack and the enclosure. An insulating member is disposed to extend in the first direction in the space between an outer surface of the cell stack and an inner surface of the enclosure. The insulating member divides the space into a plurality of spaces and has an aperture formed therein to provide communication between the divided plurality of spaces, and an air intake member configured to suction air discharged from the outlet.Type: GrantFiled: August 12, 2019Date of Patent: September 20, 2022Assignees: Hyundai Motor Company, Kia Motors CorporationInventors: Duck Whan Kim, Gi Young Nam, Suk Min Baeck, Hyun Woong Ko, Ju Han Kim, Seung Jun Yeon, Ki Wook Ohm, Kwi Seong Jeong, Yong Suk Heo
