Abstract
A method of producing a fuel cell by layering a large number of sheets of unit fuel cells (). A first supporting plate () is placed at the front section of a pusher unit () in a slightly inclined, upward facing position, and then a large number of sheets of unit fuel cells are layered on the first supporting plate (). After that, while making the pusher unit fall into a horizontal position, vibration is applied to the layered unit fuel cells for alignment. A second supporting plate () is provided at the front end surface of the aligned unit fuel cells. The first and second supporting plates are connected using connection plates () while a predetermined pressing force is applied to the unit fuel cells through the first supporting plate and the second supporting plate.
