First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for manufacturing a fuel cell assembly, the method comprising:
- providing a fuel source, the fuel source including a plurality of fuel source particles having a corrosion-resistance coating;
forming the fuel source into a desired shape that has an outer surface; and
coupling a flexible fuel cell anode electrode to the outer surface of the fuel source without an intervening container between the outer surface of the fuel source and the fuel cell, wherein the flexible fuel cell anode electrode conforms to the shape of the fuel source.

Abstract
An example fuel cell assembly may include a shaped fuel source that is formed into a desired shape. The shaped fuel source may have an outer surface, and a fuel cell may be mounted directly on the outer surface of the shaped fuel source. In some instances, the fuel cell assembly may also include one or more of a cathode cap, an anode cap, a refill port, and an outer shell disposed around an exterior of the fuel cell assembly, but these are not required.
