A fuel cell coupler includes a nozzle part (9) arranged on a fuel cartridge, and a socket part (6) arranged in a fuel cell body, and the parts are detachably coupled to each other. The nozzle part (9) has a resin part which deforms to detach from the socket part (6) when a bending load is applied on the fuel cartridge coupled to the fuel cell body. A guide groove (18) for guiding insertion of the nozzle part (9) into the socket part (6) deforms so that a key section (29) disengages and the nozzle part (9) detaches from the socket part (6) when the bending load is applied to the fuel cartridge coupled to the fuel cell body.
