Apparatus for automatically stacking fuel cell stack

An apparatus for automatically stacking a fuel cell stack, comprising:

• a component pick-up unit configured to simultaneously pick up one separating plate component and one membrane-electrode assembly (MEA) sheet component accommodated in magazines, respectively, and load the components onto a start end of a component transfer route of a conveyor;
• a component aligning unit installed to be connected to a distal end of the component transfer route of the conveyor, and configured to align the separating plate component and the MEA sheet component transferred through the conveyor at predetermined locations;
• a component stacking unit installed at the component aligning unit, and configured to grip the separating plate component and the MEA sheet component and stack the components on a stack guide provided to be transferred in a direction crossing the component transfer route of the conveyor;
• and
• a component pressurizing unit installed at an upper side of a transfer route of the stack guide, and configured to pressurize the separating plate component and the MEA sheet component which are sequentially stacked on the stack guide.

• an end plate loading unit installed at an external side of a transfer route of the stack guide between the component stacking unit and the component pressurizing unit, and configured to grip each of upper and lower end plates and load the gripped end plate onto the stack guide;
• and
• a transferring unit configured to transfer the stack guide, on which the separating plate component and the MEA sheet component are stacked by the component stacking unit from a start end of the transfer route of the stack guide to the component pressurizing unit side, and transfer a stack body, in which the separating plate component and the MEA sheet component are stacked by the component pressurizing unit, from the component pressurizing unit side to a finish end of the transfer route of the stack guide, separately from the stack guide.
