Problems solved by technology

However, this arrangement is not entirely satisfactory, since it requires a very precise relative positioning of the individual zones, otherwise the corrugations formed in the transition zones have irregularities that could destroy the mechanical properties of the metal sheet

Embodiment Construction

[0055] figure 1 Shown is a corrugated metal sheet 1 used to form the sealing membrane of a tank for storing cryogenic fluids such as liquefied natural gas.

[0056] The metal plate 1 comprises a first series of parallel corrugations 2, called lower corrugations, extending along the y-direction, and a second series of parallel corrugations 3, called upper corrugations, extending along the x-direction. extend. The direction x and the direction y of these series of corrugations are perpendicular. The corrugations 2, 3 protrude from the sides of the inner face of the metal plate 1 to come into contact with the fluid contained in the tank. In this case, the edges of the sheet metal 1 are parallel to the corrugations 2 , 3 . It should be noted that the terms "upper" and "lower" have relative meanings and mean that the corrugations 2, called lower corrugations, have a lower height than the corrugations 3, called upper corrugations. Furthermore, in an embodiment not shown, the co...

Abstract

The invention relates to a bending machine for forming an undulation in a metal sheet (1), the bending machine comprising: a first punch (11) having a head (14) that has a V-shaped cross section and that comprises at least one first portion (41) and two second portions (35) arranged on either side of the first portion (41) in the longitudinal direction, the first portion (41) being connected to each of the second portions (35) by a transition zone (38, 54); a die (13) having at least one first portion (42) and two second portions (43) arranged on either side of the first portion (42) in the longitudinal direction; the two transition zones (38, 54) are respectively arranged opposite the one and the other of the second portions (43) of the die (13) and are suitable to be received therein during a bending operation.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a bending (folding) device (machine) for forming corrugations in metal sheets and a method of using the bending device. [0002] More specifically, the invention relates to the field of sealed and thermally insulated membrane tanks for the storage and / or transport of fluids, such as cryogenic fluids, in which the corrugated metal sheets obtained by means of the bending device according to the invention are used in particular For the construction of the sealing membrane of such tanks. Background technique [0003] In the prior art, corrugated sealing membranes are known for forming coatings for liquefied natural gas storage tanks. Each sealing membrane is formed from a plurality of metal plates having a series of vertical corrugations to allow deformation of said metal plates under the action of thermal and mechanical stresses generated by the fluid stored in the tank. [0004] Such a corrugated sealing membrane is disclosed, ...
