Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
An ion exchange membrane electrolyzer includes an elastic body configured to press on a second electrode so as to bring an ion exchange membrane into close contact with electrodes. The elastic body includes a fixed part fixed to one of a base part and the second electrode, and an elastic part that extends from the fixed part, and is configured to press on the second electrode by elastic deformation. The elastic part is formed so as to be plate-like and formed so as to be corrugated along a direction in which it extends, such that a top part on one side is in contact with the base part and a top part on the other side is in contact with the second electrode.

1 . An ion exchange membrane electrolyzer, comprising: a first electrode; a base part fixed with respect to and spaced from the first electrode; a second electrode disposed between the first electrode and the base part; an ion exchange membrane disposed between the first electrode and the second electrode; and an elastic body disposed between the base part and the second electrode in an elastically deformable manner, and configured to press on the second electrode so as to bring the ion exchange membrane into close contact with the electrodes, wherein the elastic body includes: a fixed part fixed to one of the base part and the second electrode; and an elastic part that extends from the fixed part, and is configured to press on the second electrode by elastic deformation, and the elastic part is formed so as to be plate-like and formed so as to be corrugated along a direction in which it extends, such that a top part on one side is in contact with the base part and a top part on the other side is in contact with the second electrode. 2 . The ion exchange membrane electrolyzer according to claim 1 , wherein at least one of the top parts on one side and the other side of the elastic part is formed in a curved shape. 3 . The ion exchange membrane electrolyzer according to claim 1 , wherein at least one of the top parts on one side and the other side of the elastic part is formed in a planar shape. 4 . The ion exchange membrane electrolyzer according to claim 1 , wherein the fixed part is formed in an elongated shape, and a plurality of elastic parts is disposed so as to extend from both sides of the fixed part in the crosswise direction. 5 . An ion exchange membrane electrolyzer comprising: an elastic body that is disposed in an elastically deformable manner between a base part, which is fixed with respect to and spaced from a first electrode, and a second electrode, which is disposed between the first electrode and the base part, and an ion exchange membrane being disposed between the first electrode and the second electrode, and that is configured to press on the second electrode so as to bring the ion exchange membrane into close contact with the electrodes, wherein the elastic body comprises comprising: a fixed part fixed to one of the base part and the second electrode; and an elastic part that extends from the fixed part, and is configured to press on the second electrode by elastic deformation, wherein the elastic part is formed so as to be plate-like and formed so as to be corrugated along a direction in which it extends, such that a top part on one side is in contact with the base part and a top part on the other side is in contact with the second electrode. 6 . The elastic body according to claim 5 , wherein at least one of the top parts on one side and the other side of the elastic part is formed in a curved shape. 7 . The elastic body according to claim 5 , wherein at least one of the top parts on one side and the other side of the elastic part is formed in a planar shape. 8 . The elastic body according to claim 5 , wherein the fixed part is formed in an elongated shape, and a plurality of elastic parts is disposed so as to extend from both sides of the fixed part in the crosswise direction.
