Problems solved by technology

The shortcomings of this method still exist: First, even if the torque of tightening the bolts is controlled, due to the difference between the bolts, the tension tolerance on the cable tie is relatively large, resulting in uneven pressure distribution of the end plate on the internal components of the battery stack. ; In order to obtain a uniform internal pressure of the battery stack, the thickness and strength of the end plate can only be increased, sacrificing the power density of the stack
Third, even if the width of the cable tie is much larger than the diameter of the bolt, the position where the cable tie is fixed by the bolt is still the weak link in the fastening strength of the cable tie

Abstract

The invention discloses a fuel cell stack fastening method and its fastening device, and a fuel cell, in which at least two cable tie units are wound around, each cable tie unit includes at least a first end and a second end, and the third end and the fourth end; The ends are respectively connected with the third connecting rod and the fourth connecting rod arranged in parallel and spaced apart; at the same time, between the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod and between the third connecting rod and the fourth connecting rod respectively pass through The fasteners are fastened and installed and connected; the opposite fastening force is applied to the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod, and the fastening force is transmitted to the cable tie unit until the stack reaches the working pressure; the invention ensures that the fuel cell stack To obtain the force distribution effect required for better stack sealing and electrical performance, at the same time, more initiative and flexibility can be obtained in the process of stack installation and life cycle maintenance of the stack.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of fuel cells, in particular to a fastening method for a fuel cell stack, and also relates to a fastening device for a fuel cell stack and a fuel cell used therefor. Background technique [0002] A fuel cell is a chemical device that directly converts the chemical energy of fuel into electrical energy, also known as an electrochemical generator. Since the fuel cell converts the Gibbs free energy in the chemical energy of the fuel into electrical energy through an electrochemical reaction, it is not limited by the Carnot cycle effect, and the energy conversion rate is high; and the reaction product of the fuel cell using hydrogen as fuel is Water, environmentally friendly, theoretically can achieve zero pollution emissions; in addition, the fuel cell has no mechanical transmission parts, less moving parts, and low noise during operation; moreover, the fuel cell also has high specific energy, high reliability, wide fuel...
