Brennstoffzellenanordnung mit in Schindelbauweise angeordneten Brennstoffzellen sowie Verwendungszwecke

(A1) Vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Brennstoffzellenanordnung, die aus mindestens zwei Einzelbrennstoffzellen besteht, wobei die Einzelbrennstoffzellen nicht parallel zueinander angeordnet sind, d. h. versetzt oder in Schindelbauweise zueinander angeordnet sind.

DE 102007050617 A1 UPAB: 20090514 NOVELTY - The cell has electro-chemical solitary cells e.g. methanol fuel cell, comprising an anode-sided arranged current conductor structure (1), a supply possibility for fuel, an electrode-membrane unit (MEA) comprising an anode-sided electrode (6), a membrane (5), a cathode-side electrode (4), a supply possibility for the oxidizing agent, and a cathode-side arranged current conductor structure (8). Each solitary cell is directly and electrically interconnected with the adjacent solitary cell and shiftably arranged with respect to adjacent solitary cell. USE - Fuel cell for supplying current to an electrically operated device and/or electronic device e.g. sensors from environmental monitoring, devices for traffic measurement technology, control system, Global system for Mobile Communication (GSM), Global positioning system, General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) navigation system, battery charging system, housing-integrated power supply unit for applications from the Consumer region such as personal digital assistant, mobile telephone and laptop, register equipment such as scanner and card reader, and intelligent and/or functional housing and/or packing (all claimed). ADVANTAGE - The fuel cell ensures electrical interconnection of multiple solitary cells, and ensures that the electrical interconnecting can be disengaged in a simple manner without additional current conductors.
