Abstract: The invention relates to a fuel cell (1), a fuel cell stack (10) having at least two fuel cells (1), a fuel cell device having a fuel cell stack and a motor vehicle having a fuel cell device. In order to prevent a production-related mispositioning of a membrane electrode assembly (13) of the fuel cell (1) from causing obstructions in the operating media flow, it is provided according to the invention that at least one of the bipolar plates (2, 3) projects farther into an operating media line (4) than the other of the bipolar plates (2, 3).

Abstract: The invention relates to a bipolar plate (10) for a fuel cell (100), comprising—an internal coolant flow field (33), which comprises a coolant channel (43), and—a first and a second flat side (11, 12) with a first and second reactant flow field (31, 32) respectively, which has at least one first and second channel structure (41, 42) respectively, wherein—the first and the second channel structure (41, 42) each form a trunk channel (44) and branch channels (46), wherein the branch channels (46) branch off in a branching region (48) from the respective trunk channel (44), and a first intermediate region (51) is formed between the branch channels (46) of the first channel structure (31), and a second intermediate region (52) is formed between the branch channels (46) of the second channel structure (32), wherein normal projections of the first and second intermediate region (51, 52) onto a center plane (56) of the bipolar plate (10), which center plane is arranged between the two flat sides (11, 12) of the bipol
