For example, when the fuel cell assembly does not supply power to the outside or has residual capacity after supplying power to the outside, the residual capacity can be supplied to the water electrolysis equipment, so that the supply of external energy is reduced, and the energy utilization rate is improved.

The novel fuel cell system in the embodiment realizes online power generation by using the connection of the light energy conversion unit, the water electrolysis equipment and the fuel cell assembly. The combination of the hydrogen storage unit and the water electrolysis equipment is utilized to store electric energy. The way of storing electric energy in the existing battery is changed.

Referring to fig. 18 and 13 again, in the assembled relationship between the second electrode plate 031 and the second sealing film M12, the second sealing film M12 has the same shape and structure as the second groove 02, so that when the second electrode plate 032 is inserted into the second reaction chamber formed by the second groove 02, the second sealing film M12 serves to seal the second reaction chamber. The specific mode is that two pieces of second sealing films M12 clamp the second electrode plate 032, so as to play a role in sealing protection.

Referring to fig. 14, in the present embodiment, a fifth hollow area is disposed in the third sealing film M3, and the first hollow area, the second hollow area, the third hollow area and the fourth hollow area are matched with each other. The fifth hollowed-out area is matched with the first hollowed-out area and the third hollowed-out area and is smaller than the first hollowed-out area and the second hollowed-out area, and when the proton exchange membrane is overlapped with the third sealing membrane M3, an overlapped area can appear. In addition, the third sealing film M3 has a fifth top slot (upper left in FIG. 14) and a sixth top slot (upper right in FIG. 14) on the top, please refer to FIGS. 7 and 8, the fifth top slot is matched with the first top slot 101 and the third top slot 202, and the sixth top slot is matched with the second top slot 102 and the fourth top slot 201; the bottom of the third sealing film M3 is provided with a fifth bottom slot (lower left in FIG. 14) which mates with the first bottom slot 103, the third bottom slot 203, and a sixth bottom slot (lower right in FIG. 14) which mates with the second bottom slot 104, the fourth bottom slot 204.

In this embodiment, the first groove pieces 01, the second groove pieces 02, the first sealing film M11, the second sealing film M12, and the fourth sealing film may have the same structure, shape, and size. This makes the manufacturing process simpler.

In addition, referring to fig. 15 in conjunction with fig. 19, the proton exchange membrane Z functions to separate the hydrogen production unit H and the oxygen production unit O. Here, referring to fig. 14, when the proton exchange membrane Z sandwiched between the first slot piece 01 and the second slot piece 01 overlaps the third sealing membrane M3, the third hollow area is also blocked. The area of the proton exchange membrane Z may be larger than the first hollow area and also larger than the second hollow area, and at this time, the edge of the proton exchange membrane Z partially overlaps with the third sealing membrane M3. The proton exchange membrane may be less than 1mm thick. As shown in fig. 16, the proton exchange membrane Z is assembled with the third sealing membrane M3 stacked.

In this embodiment, the first electrode plate 031 and the second electrode plate 032 are made of foam nickel plates loaded with catalyst, and the shape may be rectangular, and the electrodes between the hydrogen production units H are connected in parallel. The first electrode plate 031 is a cathode, and the second electrode plate 032 is an anode.

Referring to fig. 19, fig. 19 is only an example of a hydrogen production unit and an oxygen production unit to illustrate the assembly and cooperation relationship of the hydrogen production unit, the oxygen production unit, the fourth sealing film, the proton exchange membrane, the third sealing film and the outer layer slot, but not to limit the scope of the present invention. In the electrolytic hydrogen and oxygen production configuration device of the embodiment, the hydrogen production unit H and the oxygen production unit O can be respectively not less than 3 groups. In a test, 3 groups of hydrogen production units, 3 groups of oxygen production units, 3 groups of hydrogen production units connected in parallel, 3 groups of oxygen production units connected in parallel, electrolyte component of 5.3% (weight percent) of potassium hydroxide, solution dosage of 400mL, voltage of 2V, current of 21 Amp, time of 30 minutes, test results show that 4.86L of hydrogen and 2.43L of oxygen are obtained, the total power consumption is 0.021% (about 4.3kWh/Nm 3H 2), and the electrolytic efficiency is 83%. Therefore, the electrolytic hydrogen and oxygen production matching device is simple in structure, and the electrolytic efficiency is effectively improved.

Next, the method for producing the above electrolytic oxyhydrogen production apparatus according to the present embodiment is described in detail, and includes:

step 102: clamping a first sealing film and a first electrode plate between the two first groove sheets to form a hydrogen production unit, and clamping a second sealing film and a second electrode plate between the two second groove sheets to form an oxygen production unit; clamping a proton exchange membrane between the hydrogen production unit and the oxygen production unit;

step 103: clamping the hydrogen production unit, the oxygen production unit and a proton exchange membrane clamped between the hydrogen production unit and the oxygen production unit in a compressed state; the hydrogen production unit and the oxygen production unit are the hydrogen production unit and the oxygen production unit described above in this embodiment, and reference may be made to the above description, which is not described herein again.

Here, the hydrogen production units and the oxygen production units are alternately arranged and stacked and clamped; side holes are arranged at the edge of the outer layer slot sheet; in step 102, outer layer slot pieces are further arranged on the outer surfaces of two sides of the stacked hydrogen production unit and oxygen production unit.

In step 103, the stacked hydrogen and oxygen production units are clamped and compressed by inserting bolts into the side holes and tightening.

Step 2: the hydrogen production unit and the oxygen production unit are stacked, so that a hydrogen production gas path channel and an oxygen production gas path channel penetrate through the top of the hydrogen production unit and the top of the oxygen production unit, and the hydrogen production liquid path channel and the oxygen production liquid path channel penetrate through the bottom of the hydrogen production unit and the bottom of the oxygen production unit.

Therefore, the electrolytic hydrogen and oxygen preparation set device has simple structure, greatly simplifies the preparation method, improves the production efficiency and is particularly suitable for large-scale production.
