Abstract
A fluid distribution device distributes at least two fluids of a fuel cell. The fluid distribution device comprises a block body, first and second external manifolds and first and second communicating portions. The block body includes a side surface that receives the fuel cell. The first external manifold is disposed adjacent the side surface. The second external manifold is disposed away from the side surface. The first and second external manifolds partially overlap, as viewed from the side surface. The second external manifold includes an extension portion that does not overlap with the first external manifold as viewed from the side surface. The first communicating portion has a first hole only communicating a first fluid to the first external manifold from the side surface. The second communicating portion has a second hole portion only communicating a second fluid to the extension portion from the side surface.
