JIG FOR SURFACE TREATMENT OF A SEPARATOR AND A SEPARATOR FOR A FUEL CELL MANUFACTURED BY SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17875634 titled 'JIG FOR SURFACE TREATMENT OF A SEPARATOR AND A SEPARATOR FOR A FUEL CELL MANUFACTURED BY SAME

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a jig designed for surface treatment of a separator used in coating layers. The separator has a concavo-convex shape with alternating lands and channels on both sides. The jig consists of two parts:

1. First jig: It has a plate part placed on one side of the separator and protruding mask parts to cover the inner surface of one side-channel. 2. Second jig: It has a plate part placed on the other side of the separator and protruding mask parts to cover the inner surface of the other side-channel.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Surface treatment of separators in various industries such as battery manufacturing, fuel cells, and filtration systems.
  • Coating processes where a concavo-convex shape is required.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Ensures uniform and precise surface treatment of separators with concavo-convex shapes.
  • Prevents coating material from reaching undesired areas by covering the inner surfaces of the channels.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved efficiency and accuracy in the surface treatment process.
  • Reduces the risk of coating material wastage and contamination.
  • Enables consistent and high-quality coating on separators.


Original Abstract Submitted

Disclosed is a jig for surface treatment of a separator which is used to partially form a coating layer on a surface of the separator in which each land and each channel are alternately and repeatedly formed on one side and the other side according to a concavo-convex shape. In particular, the jig includes: a first jig which has a first plate part disposed on the one side of the separator and first mask parts protruding from the first plate part to cover an inner surface of one side-channel; and a second jig that has a second plate part disposed on the other side of the separator and second mask parts protruding from the second plate part to cover an inner surface of the other side-channel.
