燃料電池システム
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP4627997
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
A fuel cell system includes: a liquid storage section (1) for storing a reacting solution; a reacting section (2) for generating reacting gas from the reacting solution supplied from the liquid storage section (1); and a fuel cell having an electrode which is arranged being joined to a solid high molecular electrolyte film (4b), generating electricity while the reacting gas supplied from the gas storage section (3) is being used as fuel. The fuel cell system also includes: a gas storage section (3) for storing the reacting gas supplied from the reacting section (2); and a liquid feeding device for feeding the reacting solution from the liquid storage section (1) to the reacting section (2). The liquid feeding device includes: an accommodating section for accommodating the reacting solution which moves from the liquid storage section (1) to the reacting section (2); and an accommodating section moving mechanism for moving the accommodating section, where the accommodating section is a container having an opening section and a shut-off section. When the opening section moves to the reacting section (2) and the shut-off section moves to the liquid storage section (1) according to a decrease in the inner pressure in the gas storage section (3), the communication between the accommodating section and the liquid storage section (1) is shut off and the accommodating section and the reacting section (2) are communicated with each other; whereas, when the opening section moves to the liquid storage section (1) and the shut-off section moves to the reacting section (2) according to an increase in the inner pressure in the gas storage section (3), the accommodating section and the liquid storage section (1) are communicated with each other and the communication between the accommodating section and the reacting section (2) is shut off. The liquid feeding device prevents the reacting solution from flowing backward from the reacting section (2) to the liquid storage section (1), and when the inner pressure in the gas storage section (3) is lowered according to the consumption of the reacting gas, the liquid feeding device moves the reacting solution from the liquid storage section (1) to the reacting section (2).
