Abstract

A tank device for storing a gaseous medium, in particular hydrogen, includes a valve device and a tank. The valve device includes a valve housing having a longitudinal axis, in which valve housing an interior is formed. An actuation valve element is movable along the longitudinal axis and is arranged in the interior, which actuation valve element interacts with a valve seat in order to open and close an outlet opening and thus forms an actuation valve. The valve device includes a solenoid. The valve seat is formed downstream on the valve housing and at the outlet opening, and the cylindrical outlet opening leads into a cylindrical passage channel, the diameter D of the passage channel is greater than the diameter d of the outlet opening.
