Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A slip sheet for a fuel cell stack that includes a plurality of spaced fluid channel support protrusions protruding from a main body, at portions which face fluid channel protrusions of a separator plate in such a manner that the spaced fluid channel support protrusions come into contact with the fluid channel protrusions of the separator plate.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A separator plate storage assembly, comprising: a slip sheet comprising a plurality of spaced fluid channel support protrusions protruding from a main body; and a separator plate, wherein the spaced fluid channel support protrusions protrude at portions which face fluid channel protrusions of the separator plate in such a manner that the spaced fluid channel support protrusions come into contact with the fluid channel protrusions of the separator plate, wherein a sum of a height of the fluid channel support protrusions and a height of the fluid channel protrusions is greater than a height of a gasket of the separator plate to form an empty space between the slip sheet and the gasket. 2. The separator plate storage assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the height of the fluid channel support protrusion is less than a value which is two times the height of the gasket of the separator plate. 3. The separator plate storage assembly according to claim 1 , having a surface roughness within a portion thereof which faces the gasket of the separator plate. 4. The separator plate storage assembly according to claim 1 , wherein a size of the fluid channel support protrusion is set such that each of the fluid channel support protrusions support at least two fluid channel protrusions.
