HEAT-INSULATING SEALED TANK BUILT INTO BEARING STRUCTURE Russian patent published in 2024 - IPC F17C13/08 F17C3/02 B63B25/16 

FIELD: ships and other floating facilities.

SUBSTANCE: group of inventions relates to a wall of a reservoir, as well as to a vessel containing said reservoir. Wall includes a heat-insulating barrier attached to the support wall and a sealed membrane supported by a heat-insulating barrier. At that, support wall supports retaining elements (21, 22) interacting with edges of insulation panels (3) of row. At that, the retaining elements comprise the first retaining elements (21) located at the first edges parallel to the first direction. First retaining elements (21) are located on one line with skin belts (12), covering the row and adjacent rows. Besides, there are second retaining elements (22) located on second edges parallel to the second direction, wherein second retaining elements (22) are located at a distance from the corners of the insulation panels of the row and on the same line with one or each belt of skin (11), which rests completely on the row.

EFFECT: development of tank wall design and, in particular, design of insulating barrier, having favourable properties from the point of view of heat insulation, mechanical strength and support of stretched sealed membrane.
