PROCESSING APPARATUS FOR GAS-DIFFUSION LAYER SHEETS
First Claim
1. A processing apparatus for gas-diffusion layer sheets, the processing apparatus comprising:
- a first roller around which a gas-diffusion layer sheet is wound, the gas-diffusion layer sheet being an electrically conductive porous member;
a second roller configured to take up the gas-diffusion layer sheet wound around the first roller; and
a processing oven configured to heat process a portion of the gas-diffusion layer sheet, the portion having been fed from the first roller but not yet taken up by the second roller, whereina heat-resistant lead is provided, the heat-resistant lead having a length at least extending to the second roller through the processing oven, being configured to be taken up by the second roller, andbeing bonded to the gas-diffusion layer sheet impregnated with a thermosetting resin.

Abstract
The processing apparatus includes: a first roller 10 around which a gas-diffusion layer sheet (carbon paper CP) is wound, the gas-diffusion layer sheet being an electrically conductive porous member; a second roller 20 configured to take up the carbon paper CP wound around the first roller 10; and a processing oven configured to heat process a portion of the carbon paper CP, the portion having been fed from the first roller 10 but not yet taken up by the second roller 20. A heat-resistant lead LE is provided, the heat-resistant lead LE having a length at least extending from the first roller 10 to the second roller 20 through the processing oven, being configured to be taken up by the second roller 20, and being bonded to the carbon paper CP impregnated with a thermosetting resin AD.
