A cell stack device in the present disclosure includes a cell stack including a plurality of arranged cells, and a first manifold configured to fix a first end of each of the cells with a sealing material and supply reactive gas to the cells. The first manifold includes a frame body configured to fix the first end of each of the cells with the sealing material inside the frame body, and a plate body bonded to a first end portion of the frame body and having a rigidity lower than that of the frame body. A module in the present disclosure includes a housing and the cell stack device housed in the housing. Furthermore, a module housing device in the present disclosure includes an external casing, the module in the external casing, and an auxiliary device configured to operate the module in the external casing.

Cell stack device, module, and module housing device

A cell stack device is provided with a cell stack comprising a plurality of cells, a manifold fixing an end of each cell of the plurality of cells thereto with a sealing material, and configured to allow a reaction gas to be supplied to each cell. An electrically conductive end member is disposed at an end portion of the cell stack in an arrangement direction of the cells, and suppressing deformation of each cell, such that a first end of the electrically conductive end member at a side of the manifold is separated from the manifold.
