1. A plate-like fluid container for the temperature control of an accumulator device for electrical energy or of an electrical consumer, the fluid container comprising:
two layers abutting to one another at least regionally;
an inlet for the pouring of a fluid into the fluid container;
an outlet for discharging the fluid out of the fluid container; and
a fluid channel system that is arranged between the layers, that connects the inlet to the outlet, and is configured to be flowed through by the fluid during the temperature control,
wherein a spacing of at least two first channel sections of the fluid channel system extending parallel to one another is larger in a first region of the fluid channel system disposed upstream than a spacing of at least two second channel sections of the fluid channel system extending parallel to one another in a second region of the fluid channel system disposed downstream;
wherein the two layers between the first channel sections that are each nearest neighbors are welded to one another by two weld seams and the two layers between the second channel sections that are each nearest neighbors are only welded to one another by one weld seam.
