Abstract

A fluid supply container that can continuously apply pressure to a fluid stored therein and enhance the supply rate of the fluid to a liquid acceptor is provided. Also, a fuel cell system including the fluid supply container is provided. A fluid supply container 1 includes a fluid storage unit 20 and a pressurizing mechanism 30 for pressurizing the fluid storage unit 20 and supplies a fluid stored in the fluid storage unit 20 to a fluid acceptor. The fluid storage unit 20 includes a first storage chamber 21 and a second storage chamber 22 defined by a flexible member 23 and connected to the first storage chamber 21 so as to allow the fluid to flow to/from the first storage chamber 21. The flexible member 23 is reversed by means of pressurization by the pressurizing mechanism 30 so that the flexible member 23 enters the first storage chamber 21, thereby reducing the volume of the fluid storage unit 20 storing the fluid. The fuel cell system uses this fluid supply container 1.
