FUEL CELL AND MOBILE UNIT

March 7, 2024
A fuel cell includes metallic separators and has an anode-gas channel, a cathode-gas channel, and a coolant channel. The metallic separators include a flat separator and a channel-equipped separator. A peripheral edge of a manifold of the channel-equipped separator whose first surface has a channel serving as the coolant channel is provided with a step. The step surrounds the peripheral edge of the manifold to increase a height of a gas inlet disposed at a second surface of the channel-equipped separator. A shortened seal member having a thickness smaller than a thickness of a peripheral seal member provided in a region other than the peripheral edge of the manifold is disposed on the step to surround the peripheral edge of the manifold.
