1. A temperature-control device of an energy store, comprising:
a first circuit, in which a first heat transfer unit and the energy store to be temperature-controlled are arranged and connected to one another in a heat-transferring manner via a first heat transfer medium,
a second circuit, in which a second heat transfer unit and the first heat transfer unit are arranged and connected to one another in a heat-transferring manner via a second heat transfer medium,
wherein in at least one of at least one line of the first circuit and at least one line of the second circuit at least one of a predetermined breaking point and a predetermined bending point is arranged which upon a predefined force effect interrupts a flow of at least one of the first heat transfer medium and the second heat transfer medium in the respectively associated circuit, and
wherein the predetermined breaking point provides a break point with a reduced cross section relative to the reminder of the at least one line, and wherein the predetermined bending point provides a bend in a straight portion of the at least one line.
