  • Patent number: 7914938
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a flat fuel cell combining runner plates and a conducting layer. The flat fuel cell includes two runner plates and a conducting layer between the runner plates. There are conducting blocks embedded into the predefined locations on the assembly surfaces of two runner plates. A concave flow passage is shaped by the assembly surfaces of runner plates and the conducting blocks, thus providing a unique structure combining the runner plates and conducting layer. The conducting blocks are electrically connected through the contact of convex flanges on the conducting blocks. Thus, the flat fuel cells are developed thin, making it possible to greatly reduce manufacturing assembly costs without the need of electric wires and to achieve better economic efficiency and applicability.

    Abstract: The present invention provides a fuel cell module compatible with a dry cell. The fuel cell module includes an enclosure, a power generating unit, a hydrogen storage unit and positive/negative output ends. The hollow enclosure has an internal space, and is provided with some preset through-holes, allowing external oxygen to enter into the space. The power generating unit and hydrogen storage unit are mounted into the space of the enclosure. Positive and negative output ends are placed at both sides or adjacent at one side of the enclosure, thereby guiding the positive and negative charge generated by the power generating unit; since the fuel cell modules are compatible with existing conventional dry cells. These modules are widely applied to existing electrical or electronic products.
