[0002] The low-temperature multi-layer insulated pressure vessel involves a double-layer structure. The liquid inlet pipe passes through the outer container and then enters the inner container, transporting the medium to be stored outside the storage tank to the inner container. The interlayer space between the inner and outer containers has insulating material and is evacuated. In order to maintain good thermal insulation of the tank, it is necessary to control the heat input as small as possible, reduce the heat transfer area and reduce the temperature difference.
[0003] In the prior art, the liquid passes through the outer container through a straight tube liquid inlet pipe, enters the top of the inner container from the vacuum interlayer, and then passes through the upper head of the inner container to enter the inner container.

[0015] The technical solution of the embodiment of the utility model has at least the following advantages and beneficial effects:
[0016] In the low-temperature insulated storage tank of the utility model, the liquid inlet pipe is arranged in a winding shape in the vacuum interlayer between the inner container and the outer container, thereby extending the length of the liquid inlet pipe between the inner and outer containers, reducing the heat transferred from the external environment to the inner container, and reducing the amount of liquid vaporization in the inner container, so that the storage tank is pressurized slowly, the pressure in the tank is stable, and there is no need to empty it outside the tank, which is economical and reasonable; at the same time, the liquid pipe passes through the outer container and the inner container in sequence upward along the bottom of the tank body, and enters the inner top side of the inner container, so that the liquid inlet pipe is immersed in the liquid in the inner container for a long time, and then the temperature of the input medium is close to the temperature of the medium in the tank, and the temperature difference is small.

[0020] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the present invention to be protected, but merely represents selected embodiments of the present invention. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0021] Reference Figure 1 The utility model discloses a novel low-temperature insulated storage tank, comprising an outer container 1 and an inner container 2, wherein the inner container 2 is installed inside the outer container 1, and a vacuum interlayer 17 is provided between the inner container 2 and the outer container 1.
[0022] Among them, the outer container 1 and the inner container 2 are both welded by a head and a straight cylinder, that is, the outer container 1 includes an outer straight cylinder 15, an outer container upper head arranged at the upper end of the outer straight cylinder 15, and an outer container lower head 12 arranged at the lower end of the outer straight cylinder 15, and the inner container 2 includes an inner straight cylinder 14, an inner container upper head arranged at the upper end of the inner straight cylinder 14, and an inner container lower head 13 arranged at the lower end of the inner container 14.
[0023] Reference Figure 1 The liquid inlet end of the liquid inlet pipe 11 extends to the outside of the outer container 1, and the liquid outlet end passes through the outer container 1 and the inner container 2 in sequence, and the liquid outlet end of the liquid inlet pipe 11 extends to the inner top side of the inner container 2.
[0024] Among them, the liquid inlet pipeline 11 includes a liquid-sealed elbow 9, a first inner liquid inlet pipe 7 and a second inner liquid inlet pipe 3 connected in sequence, wherein the liquid-sealed elbow 9 is placed in the vacuum interlayer 17, and the liquid-sealed elbow 9 is arranged in a winding shape; the liquid-sealed elbow 9 is connected between the outer container lower head 12 of the outer container 1 and the inner container lower head 13 of the inner container 2, that is, one end of the liquid-sealed elbow 9 is installed on the outer container lower head 12 through the outer container joint 10, and the other end of the liquid-sealed elbow 9 is connected to the first inner liquid inlet pipe 7 through the inner container joint 8 installed on the inner container lower head 13.
[0025] The first inner liquid inlet pipe 7 and the second inner liquid inlet pipe 3 are both placed in the inner container 2, and the first liquid inlet pipe 7 extends vertically upward; the liquid outlet end of the second inner liquid inlet pipe 3 is horizontally suspended on the inner top of the inner container 2, and the liquid outlet faces the bottom of the inner container 2, and the first inner liquid inlet pipe 7 and the second inner liquid inlet pipe 3 are connected through the air-sealed elbow 6; Figure 1 The air-sealed bent pipe 6 is in a coil shape, and the axis around which the coil is wound is in a horizontal state.
[0026] Among them, refer to Figure 1 The second inner liquid inlet pipe 3 is fixed to the inner wall of the inner container 2 through multiple groups of tie rods 4, and a sleeve 5 is installed at the free end of the tie rod 4, that is, the second inner liquid inlet pipe 3 is inserted into the sleeve 5.
[0027] In this embodiment, the liquid inlet pipes 11 all adopt a flexible hose structure. In addition, the vacuum interlayer 17 is also filled with a heat insulating material 16 .
[0028] In the low-temperature insulated storage tank of the utility model, the liquid inlet pipe 11 passes through the outer container 1 and the inner container 2 in sequence and then extends to the top of the inner container 2, and the liquid-sealed elbow 9 in the vacuum interlayer 17 and the gas-sealed elbow 6 in the inner container 2 are both arranged in a curved shape.

The liquid inlet pipe 11 adopts a movable support structure, so that the liquid inlet pipe 11 can freely expand and contract due to the change of temperature difference during liquid inlet operation, thereby reducing the local stress increased by the support constraint, thereby extending the service life, reliability and safety of the liquid inlet pipe and the entire tank body.
[0030] In addition, the liquid inlet pipe 11 is inserted into the inner container 2 from bottom to top, and the liquid inlet pipe 11 is immersed in liquid for a long time, so that the temperature of the input medium is close to the medium in the tank, and the temperature difference is small; the liquid seal elbow 9 is arranged in a curved shape, so that the liquid inlet pipe 11 is far away from the wall of the outer container 1, and finally the heat transmitted to the tank from the external environment is greatly reduced, the pressure of the storage tank is slowly increased, only a small amount of liquid is vaporized into gas, the pressure in the tank is stable, and there is no need to empty it outside the tank, which is economical and reasonable.
