[0027] In the present invention, LNG is the abbreviation of liquefied natural gas (Liquefied Natural Gas). LNG refers to natural gas mainly composed of methane that is processed and cooled to about -162 degrees Celsius (-260 degrees Fahrenheit) under normal pressure to be converted into a liquid state.

[0028] At present, LNG (liquefied natural gas) carriers are the main means of transporting imported LNG (liquefied natural gas). In addition, LNG carriers generally use membrane-type containment systems. The membrane-type containment system generally includes two layers, the inner side of each layer is set as a shielding structure, and the outer side is set as a heat insulation structure, ultimately forming four overlapping structural layers.

[0029] In an embodiment of the present invention, a membrane containment system for an LNG carrier is introduced.

[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, the enclosure system mainly includes a primary shielding layer 100, a primary thermal insulation layer 200, a secondary shielding layer 300, a secondary thermal insulation layer 400 and a load-bearing mastic 500. Specifically, the load-bearing mastic 500, the secondary thermal insulation layer 400, the secondary shielding layer 300, the primary thermal insulation layer 200 and the primary shielding layer 100 are stacked in sequence from the load-bearing inner wall 700 of the cabin of the transport ship.

[0031] The main shielding layer 100 is located at the innermost side of the maintenance system and forms a closed cavity for storing LNG (liquefied natural gas). The inner side of the main shielding layer 100 is in direct contact with the LNG (liquefied natural gas). The main insulation layer 200 is arranged on the outer side of the main shielding layer 100. The secondary shielding layer 300 is arranged on the outer side of the main insulation layer 200. The secondary insulation layer 400 is arranged on the outer side of the secondary shielding layer 300. The load-bearing mastic 500 is arranged between the outer side of the secondary insulation layer 400 and the load-bearing inner wall 700 of the cabin of the transport ship.

[0032] like Figure 2 As shown, an inwardly extending anchoring structure 600 is provided on the cabin load-bearing inner wall 700. The anchoring structure 600 penetrates the secondary insulation layer 400 and the secondary shielding layer 300, fixes the secondary insulation layer 400 and the secondary shielding layer 300 to the cabin load-bearing inner wall 700, and is used to provide deformation freedom for the main insulation layer 200 and the secondary insulation layer 400.

[0033] The anchoring structure 600 includes: an anchoring base 660, an anchor rod 610, a pad 620, a clamping plate 630 and a locking cap 640. The anchoring base 660 is arranged at the bottom of the anchoring structure 600. The anchoring base 660 is connected to the load-bearing inner wall 700 of the cabin. The connection method of the anchoring base 660 and the load-bearing inner wall 700 of the cabin is welding. The anchoring base 660 is provided with a thread inside, and the anchor rod 610 is connected to the anchoring base 660 through the thread.

[0034] Preferably, the anchor structure 600 is designed to have a pull-out force of at least 4900 N to ensure that it can withstand a variety of loads.

[0035] The backing plate 620 is provided with a first elongated hole 621. The clamping plate 630 is provided with a second elongated hole 631. Moreover, the first elongated hole 621 and the second elongated hole 631 are arranged in alignment. The diameter of the first elongated hole 621 is the same as the diameter of the anchor rod 610. The diameter of the second elongated hole 631 is the same as the diameter of the locking cap 640. The clamping plate 630 is provided with the second elongated hole 631, which can release a certain degree of freedom when the secondary insulation layer 400 is deformed, so as to achieve deformation coordination between adjacent secondary insulation modules 410.

[0036] Furthermore, the anchor rod 610 extends vertically inward from the load-bearing inner wall 700 of the cabin and passes through the secondary insulation layer 400, thereby ensuring that the position of the secondary insulation layer 400 is fixed.

[0037] In particular, the secondary insulation layer 400 is formed by splicing a plurality of secondary insulation modules 410. The pad 620 of the anchoring structure 600 is arranged across the connection between two adjacent secondary insulation modules 410. The anchor rod 610 is inserted into the first long hole 621 of the pad 620. The anchor rods 610 located at both ends of the pad 620 are respectively connected with different secondary insulation modules 410. The pad 620 can move in the horizontal direction relative to the anchor rod 610 through the first long hole 621, so as to allow the secondary insulation layer 400 to have a certain amount of free displacement and realize a small range displacement of the secondary insulation layer 400.

[0038] In this embodiment, the secondary insulation layer 400 is connected by the anchoring structure 600, which can provide deformation freedom for the membrane type containment system, so that the secondary insulation layer 400 can be freely deformed and displaced within a small range, avoiding mutual tearing between different structural layers of the membrane type containment system, ensuring the sealing integrity of the membrane type containment system, and thus greatly enhancing the safety and durability of the LNG transport ship.

[0039] Based on the above embodiment, in another embodiment of the present invention, a membrane type containment system for an LNG carrier is introduced.

[0040] The secondary thermal insulation layer 400 includes a secondary thermal insulation module 410 and a pre-compression thermal insulation filling module 413 .

[0041] The plurality of secondary insulation modules 410 are arranged and distributed in a matrix form. The pre-compression insulation filling modules 413 are embedded between adjacent secondary insulation modules 410 to compensate for the deformation of the secondary insulation modules 410 when they shrink due to cold.

[0042] The pre-pressed heat-insulating filling module 413 is made of elastic material and is pre-pressed before filling, so as to realize self-adjustment of thermal deformation and compensate for the deformation displacement caused by thermal expansion and contraction of the adjacent secondary heat-insulating module 410 .

[0043] The anchoring structure 600 has two anchor rods 610 arranged in parallel and spaced apart. The anchoring structure 600 crosses the pre-compression heat insulation filling module 413. Moreover, the anchoring structure 600 is connected with the adjacent secondary heat insulation modules 410 respectively through the anchor rods 610.

[0044] Furthermore, the anchoring structure 600 includes a backing plate 620 and a clamping plate 630. The backing plate 620 is provided with a first elongated hole 621. The clamping plate 630 is provided with a second elongated hole 631. The backing plate 620 and the clamping plate 630 are overlapped and installed on the top of the anchor rod 610.

[0045] The first elongated hole 621 and the second elongated hole 631 are aligned and sleeved on the anchor rod 610 .

[0046] Furthermore, the anchoring structure 600 includes a locking cap 640 sleeved on the anchor rod 610 .

[0047] like Figure 3 As shown, the diameter of the first elongated hole 621 is the same as the diameter of the anchor rod 610. The diameter of the second elongated hole 631 is the same as the diameter of the locking cap 640. The locking cap 640 is embedded in the second elongated hole 631. In addition, the top surface of the locking cap 640 is lower than the plate surface of the clamping plate 630 to prevent the locking cap 640 from blocking the displacement of the insulation module and ensure that a certain degree of freedom is released when the insulation module is deformed.

[0048] Based on the above embodiment, in another embodiment of the present invention, a membrane type containment system for an LNG carrier is introduced.

[0049] The main heat insulation layer 200 is bonded to the secondary shielding layer 300 by glue. The main heat insulation layer 200 is composed of a main heat insulation module 210 and the pre-pressed heat insulation filling module 413 .

[0050] The plurality of main insulation modules 210 are arranged and distributed in a matrix form. The pre-compression insulation filling modules 413 are embedded between adjacent main insulation modules 210 to compensate for the deformation of the main insulation modules 210 when they shrink due to cold.

[0051] Preferably, the material of the pre-compression heat-insulating filling module 413 is polyurethane foam or glass wool, because they are elastic and can be pre-compressed before filling, thereby compensating for the deformation of the main heat-insulating module 210 when it shrinks due to cold.

[0052] Based on the above embodiment, in another embodiment of the present invention, a membrane type containment system for an LNG carrier is introduced.

[0053] The secondary shielding layer 300 is composed of two layers of glass fiber and an aluminum sheet located between the two layers of glass fiber. The glass fiber is used to provide mechanical bearing performance. The aluminum sheet is used to provide sealing performance.

[0054] Based on the above embodiment, in another embodiment of the present invention, a membrane type containment system for an LNG carrier is introduced.

[0055] A pre-compression insulation filling module 413 is arranged between adjacent main insulation modules 210. The main insulation module 210 comprises a stacked main plywood 211 and a main insulation material 212. The main plywood 211 is located on the inner side and is attached to the main shielding layer 100. The main insulation material 212 is located on the outer side and is attached to the secondary shielding layer 300.

[0056] Furthermore, the secondary heat insulation module 410 includes a stacked secondary plywood 411 and a secondary heat insulation material 412. The secondary plywood 411 is located on the outside and is attached to the load-bearing adhesive 500. The secondary heat insulation material 412 is located on the inside and is attached to the secondary shielding layer 300.

[0057] Specifically, the main plywood 211 is bonded to the main heat-insulating material 212 by glue. The secondary plywood 411 is bonded to the secondary heat-insulating material 412 by glue. Moreover, in the vertical direction of the cabin load-bearing inner wall 700, the main plywood 211 and the main heat-insulating material 212 are sequentially overlapped from the cabin to the cabin load-bearing inner wall 700. The secondary plywood 411 and the secondary heat-insulating material 412 are sequentially overlapped from the cabin load-bearing inner wall 700 to the cabin, which is exactly the opposite of the structure of the main heat-insulating module 210.

[0058] In order to prevent the anchor rod 610 from transferring heat, a heat preservation ring 650 is provided on the outer side of the anchor rod 610. The heat preservation ring 650 is made of glass wool.

[0059] Furthermore, when the anchoring structure 600 is connected to the secondary insulation module 410 , polyurethane paint is applied to ensure that the secondary insulation layer 400 is completely sealed.

[0060] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it.
