Specifically, when there are two membrane electrode assemblies 150, the fuel cell fixture 100 has a bipolar plate 152 corresponding thereto, and the bipolar plate 152 is located between the two membrane electrode assemblies 150; when there are three membrane electrode assemblies 150, the fuel cell fixture 100 has two bipolar plates 152 corresponding thereto, and the two bipolar plates 152 are respectively located between the two adjacent membrane electrode assemblies 150. It should be noted that the bipolar plate 152 is composed of an anode plate 140 and a cathode plate 160, and the bipolar plate 152 is provided with serpentine channels 161 on both sides facing the membrane electrode package 150, and the serpentine channels 161 have a certain depth along the thickness direction of the bipolar plate 152.

It should be noted that, in the fastening process of the fuel cell clamp 100, the bipolar plate 152 is not in contact with the fastening bolt, in addition, the bipolar plate 152 is provided with a sealing groove 121 on both sides facing the membrane electrode package 150, and a sealing gasket 122 is embedded in the sealing groove 121, so as to ensure the sealing performance inside the fuel cell clamp 100.

In order to further improve the durability of the fuel cell fixture 100, in a preferred embodiment, as shown in fig. 1 and 3, the anode plate 140 and the cathode plate 160 are made of graphite materials, and the bipolar plate 152 is also made of graphite materials when the durability performance of the membrane electrode packages 150 is tested. Because the graphite material has better rigidity, the durability of the fuel cell clamp 100 can be improved; meanwhile, when the durability performance of the plurality of membrane electrode packages 150 is detected, the phenomenon that the membrane electrode is single-low due to uneven reaction gas intake can be effectively avoided, and the detection precision of the durability performance of the membrane electrode is improved.

In order to control and monitor the operating current and voltage inside the fuel cell fixture 100, in a preferred embodiment, as shown in fig. 1, the fuel cell fixture 100 further includes a polling device (not shown), the first current collecting plate 130 is provided with an electrically conductive connector 131 extending to the outside, and the second current collecting plate 170 is also provided with an electrically conductive connector 131 extending to the outside. Specifically, the conductive connector 131 may be disposed on the first current collecting plate 130 and the second current collecting plate 170 by welding, screwing, and the like, and the conductive connector 131 is connected to an electronic load, so as to control and monitor the operating current and voltage. The polling instrument is electrically connected with the conductive connector 131 through a wire, and monitors the current and voltage of the membrane electrode in real time, so as to avoid the single-low phenomenon on the membrane electrode, which causes the fuel cell clamp 100 to have errors in the detection of the membrane electrode performance.

In order to simplify the manufacturing process of the first current collecting plate 130 and the second current collecting plate 170, as shown in fig. 1 and 3, a preferred embodiment is that the first current collecting plate 130 is made of copper and the second current collecting plate 170 is also made of copper, the first current collecting plate 130 and the second current collecting plate 170 made of copper in the embodiment are easy to process, low in processing cost and easy to thin, the manufacturing process of the first current collecting plate 130 and the second current collecting plate 170 can be simplified, the volume of the fuel cell fixture 100 can be reduced, and the miniaturization design of the fuel cell fixture 100 can be realized. And the mechanical strength of copper is high, which can improve the bearing capacity of the first current collecting plate 130 and the second current collecting plate 170, and prolong the service life of the fuel cell fixture 100.

In addition, gold layers are coated on the surfaces of the first current collecting plate 130 and the second current collecting plate 170 to improve the conductivity of the first current collecting plate 130 and the second current collecting plate 170, and since the fuel cell fixture 100 needs to detect the performance of the membrane electrode under an acidic or alkaline condition, the gold layers are coated on the surfaces of the first current collecting plate 130 and the second current collecting plate 170 to enhance the corrosion resistance of the first current collecting plate 130 and the second current collecting plate 170, and improve the electron transfer efficiency and the service life of the fuel cell fixture 100.
