Abstract
A fuel cell stack includes unit cells, a resin load receiver, and a connecting member. The resin load receiver is provided in each of a first and second separators. The resin load receiver has a projecting portion that projects outwardly from an outer peripheral edge of each of the first and second separators and that has a projecting portion lateral face. The connecting member includes an engagement portion engaged with the resin load receiver and having a depressed portion into which the projecting portion is inserted and which has a depressed portion lateral face facing the projecting portion lateral face. A distance between the projecting portion lateral face and the depressed portion lateral face at a root portion of the projecting portion is smaller than a distance between the projecting portion lateral face and the depressed portion lateral face at an end of the projecting portion.
