An MEA 15 is arranged between frames 13, 14. A first gas flow passage forming member 21 is arranged between an anode electrode layer 17 of the MEA 15 and a first separator 23 fixed to an upper surface of the frame 13. A second gas flow passage forming member 22 is arranged between a cathode electrode layer 18 of the MEA 15 and a second separator 24 fixed to a lower surface of the frame 14. The gas flow passage forming members 21, 22 are each formed by a metal lath 25. The metal lath is formed by forming a plurality of through holes 26 in a thin metal plate in a mesh-like manner and forming the thin metal plate in a stepped shape. The gas flow passage forming members 21, 22 each include a plurality of annular portions 27 forming the through holes 26. Each of the annular portions 27 has a flat surface portion 28a in a first contact portion 28, which contacts a carbon paper 19, 20.

L'invention concerne un MEA (15) qui est disposé entre des structures (13, 14). Un premier élément de formation d'un conduit d'écoulement gazeux (21) est disposé entre une couche d'électrode d'anode (17) du MEA (15) et un premier séparateur (23) fixé sur la surface supérieure de la structure (13). Un second élément de formation d'un conduit d'écoulement gazeux (22) est disposé entre une couche d'électrode de cathode (18) du MEA (15) et un second séparateur (23) fixé sur la surface inférieure de la structure (14). Les éléments de formation d'un conduit d'écoulement gazeux (21, 22) sont construits à partir d'un métal en lattes (25). Le métal en lattes est formé par la formation, selon un modèle maillé, de trous passants (26) dans une plaque métallique mince, puis par la formation de la plaque métallique mince selon une forme d'escalier. Les éléments de formation d'un conduit d'écoulement gazeux (21, 22) possèdent des parties en anneau (27) formant les trous passants (26). Les parties en anneau (27) possèdent des parties à surface plane (28a), placées sur des premières parties de contact (28) établissant un contact avec du papier carbone (19, 20).
