Abstract
The invention relates to a fuel cell with a stack comprising an electrolytic membrane (4), with front and rear faces (4a, 4b) on which first and second current collectors (13, 15) are respectively arranged, each comprising a metallic deposit and provided with a number of transverse passages. First and second electrodes (14, 16) are respectively arranged on the first and second current collectors (13, 15) such as to come into direct contact with the electrolytic membrane (4).
Claims6
Fuel cell comprising:
- a stack comprising a first electrode, an electrolytic membrane provided with front and rear faces, and a second electrode,
- and first and second current collectors integrated in the stack and respectively corresponding to the first and second electrodes, each current collector comprising a metallic deposit and being provided with a plurality of transverse passages for passage of a fluid,
- cell characterized in that the first and second current collectors are respectively arranged on the front and rear faces of the electrolytic membrane, between the electrolytic membrane and the corresponding electrode.
