Abstract
A conveying device for a fuel cell system for conveying and/or recirculating a gaseous medium, in particular hydrogen, includes a recirculation fan, a jet pump that is driven by a motive stream of a gaseous medium that is under pressure, and a metering valve. The gaseous medium is supplied to the jet pump by the metering valve. The conveying device further includes an inlet fluidically connected to an anode outlet of the fuel cell and an outlet fluidically connected to an anode inlet of the fuel cell. The jet pump and the metering valve form a combined valve/jet-pump assembly. The components of the conveying device are positioned on a planar carrier element such that flow lines between and/or within the components extend only parallel to the planar carrier element. The planar carrier element is arranged between the fuel cell and the conveying device.
