Disclosed is a battery pack using a direct cooling method on the edge surface of a battery. The direct cooling-type battery pack, which is prevented from leakage caused by swelling through a cooling surface formed on an edge surface of a battery cell and is applicable to a bi-directional cell, includes: a battery module having a plurality of battery cells stacked therein; a cooling frame corresponding to a casing in which the battery module is received, and forming a cooling surface on an edge surface in a direction of 90&#xb0; from a stacking surface on which the battery cells are stacked; and a heat sink which is positioned at the bottom of the cooling surface, is coupled with a cooling frame enclosing the battery module and mounted to the upper part thereof, stores a coolant therein, and supplies the stored coolant to the cooling surface. According to the present disclosure, a direct cooling-type cooling surface is formed on one edge surface of a battery pack to prevent leakage of a coolant caused by swelling and to provide a battery pack applicable to a bi-directional cell.

The present invention relates to a thin plate bonding method or a thin plate assembly, and more particularly, to a thin plate bonding method which includes coating with a coating material after increasing a surface roughness or increasing a surface roughness through coating with a coating material, and then, conducting diffusion bonding, such that excellent bonding strength is achieved even when the diffusion bonding is performed at low temperature and low pressure, thin plate deformation by thermal stress may be prevented, and high air tightness may be obtained since the coating material fills micro-pores.

Plate bonding method and plate assembly

The present invention relates to a hydrogen production module by an integrated reaction/separation process, and a hydrogen production reactor using the same, and more specifically, provides a hydrogen production apparatus which laminates a plurality of layered unit cells, is mounted in a pressure-resistant chamber, and can be operated at a high pressure, wherein the unit cell comprises a first modified catalyst, and a second modified catalyst opposite to a hydrogen separator. The hydrogen production module can produce hydrogen using a hydrocarbon, carbon monoxide and an alcohol as sources. Particularly, all the modified catalysts are formed into a porous metal plate form, thereby maximizing the heat transfer effect necessary for reaction. While a reaction and separation of hydrogen simultaneously occur, separated reactants permeate the first modified catalyst so as to come in contact with the same, and then pass through the gap between the hydrogen separator and the second modified catalyst opposite to each other. Therefore, it is possible to obtain a high efficiency over the equilibrium conversion rate of reaction temperature, and high purity hydrogen can be obtained.

The present invention relates to a multilayer module for hydrogen separation using a pressure-resistant chamber so that unit cells using a metal separation membrane through which only hydrogen selectively passes are stacked to improve separation efficiency, and a mixed gas is uniformly supplied into each of the unit cells. In the multilayer module, the unit cells are stacked on each other, and the mixed gas is supplied into the chamber. Also, mixed gas input ports are each disposed in the side surfaces of the unit cells to supply the mixed gas.
