Definitions
- the primary anchoring member described above can be used on an entire vessel wall or only in localized portions of the vessel wall such as the ballast zones.
- the vessel wall has a vertical component defining a height of said vessel wall in the direction of earth's gravity, the vessel wall comprising several of said primary anchoring members each comprising a base, a rod, a support element, a sealing washer and a deformable gasket as above, said several primary anchoring members being arranged on a lower portion of the vessel wall, for example at least the lower two thirds of the height of said tank wall.
- the vessel wall is a first vessel wall, the vessel further comprising a second vessel wall, the first vessel wall and the second vessel wall forming an edge of the vessel, the first vessel wall tank comprising several of said primary anchoring members each comprising a base, a rod, a support element, a sealing washer and a deformable seal as above, said several primary anchoring members being arranged at a distance of the edge of the tank lower than a predefined threshold.
- the predefined threshold corresponds to the width of five insulating panels, said several primary anchoring members being for example arranged to retain five successive primary insulating panels in a direction perpendicular to the edge.
- Primary insulation panels can be made in various ways. According to one embodiment, the primary insulating panels are parallelepipedic in shape.
- the deformable seal is completely housed in the protective portion of the bell.
- the deformable seal is protected by the bell, for example during assembly operations of the primary anchoring member in the vessel.
- the deformable seal is fixed on the rod between the passage of the mounting portion of the bell and the sealing washer.
- the bellows is of flared shape, the second axial end of the bellows fixed to the sealing washer having a circumferential dimension greater than the circumferential dimension of the first axial end of the bellows fixed to the rod.
- the secondary insulating barrier comprises an anchoring plate, the base of the primary anchoring member being anchored to said anchoring plate.
- the anchor plate is housed in a recess formed in the cover plate of a secondary insulating panel, the anchor plate having an internal surface flush with the internal face of the cover plate.
- the anchor plate comprises a threaded orifice and the base has a threaded outer end, the base of the primary anchor member being anchored onto the anchor plate by screwing the threaded end of the base into the threaded hole in the anchor plate.
- an inner end of the rod opposite the base is threaded
- the primary anchoring member further comprises a nut screwed onto said threaded inner end, the support element being interposed between said nut and the base of the primary anchor member.
- the deformable gasket is inserted between the bearing element and the sealing washer.
- the bell has freedom of movement along the thickness direction of the vessel wall.
- the freedom of movement of the bell is limited on the one hand by the nut mounted on the rod, or if necessary the elastic washer(s), and, on the other hand, by the surface of anchor shoulder anchor.
- the transfer wedge has a thickness, taken along the thickness direction of the vessel wall, less than the thickness of the bottom plate of the primary insulating panel.
- the transfer wedge further comprises an internal portion developing from the plate and surrounding the bell.
- the transfer spacer is smaller in size than the spacing available between the panels. The assembly of the wedge between the panels is thus facilitated.
- the terms “external” and “internal” will be used to designate, according to the definitions given in the description, the relative position of one element with respect to another, with reference to the interior of the tank.
- an element close to or facing the interior of the tank is qualified as internal as opposed to an external element located close to or facing the outside of the tank.
- the expressions “radially on the periphery” or “radially external” characterize the portion remote from an axis defining a circular element, as opposed to the expression radially internal which characterizes the portion close to said axis.
- the expression “transverse” is used to qualify a displacement or a direction of development of an element according to a direction situated in a plane perpendicular to the direction of thickness of the vessel wall.
- the wall of the tank comprises successively, in the direction of the thickness, from the outside towards the inside of the tank, a secondary thermally insulating barrier, hereinafter secondary insulating barrier 1, retained on a load-bearing wall (not illustrated), a secondary waterproof membrane 2 resting against the secondary insulating barrier 1, a primary thermally insulating barrier, hereinafter primary insulating barrier 3, resting against the secondary waterproof membrane 2 and a primary waterproof membrane 4 intended to be in contact with the gas natural liquid contained in the tank.
- the load-bearing structure can in particular be formed by the hull or the double hull of a ship.
- the load-bearing structure comprises a plurality of load-bearing walls defining the general shape of the tank, usually a polyhedral shape, each tank wall being anchored to a respective load-bearing wall.
- the structure of a secondary insulating panel 5 illustrated in the figure 2 comprises a bottom plate 7, a cover plate 8 and an insulating gasket 9 interposed between the bottom plate 7 and the cover plate 8.
- the bottom plates 7 and cover 8 are for example made of plywood.
- the insulating gasket 9 is for example a layer of insulating polymer foam sandwiched between the bottom plate 7 and the cover plate 8.
- the insulating gasket 9 is glued to the bottom plate 7 and the cover plate 8.
- the foam insulating polymer may in particular be a polyurethane-based foam, optionally reinforced with fibers.
- the bottom plate 13 of the primary insulating panel 11 includes grooves 18 intended to receive the raised edges of the strakes 10 of the secondary waterproof membrane 2.
- the cover plate 15 includes anchoring strips 19, illustrated on the figure 1 , to anchor the primary waterproof membrane 4. These anchoring strips 19 are housed in counterbores formed on the internal face of the cover plate 15.
- the primary insulating panel 11 may further comprise relaxation slots 20 formed in the plate cover 15 and in an internal portion of the primary insulating gasket 14. Such relaxation slots 20 have the function of preventing deformation or degradation of the primary insulating panel 11 due to the differential contractions between the cover plate 15 and the primary insulating gasket 14. Such relaxation slots 20 also make it possible to let corrugations 21 work and thus avoid creating stresses in the primary waterproof membrane 4 and in the primary insulating barrier 4 in the case of a primary waterproof membrane 4 comprising undulations 21 as described below.
- the recess 23 has an inner section 24 having a first diameter and an outer section 25 having a second diameter.
- the second diameter is greater than the first diameter so that the outer section 25 of the recess 23 forms lateral recesses interposed between a portion of the cover plate 8 surrounding the inner section 24 and the insulating gasket 9.
- This sealing washer 34 comprises an annular body 35 having a central orifice 36.
- the sealing washer 34 further comprises a collar 37 developing radially outwards from an outer portion of the radially outer face of the annular body 35.
- an internal face 38 of the annular body 35 comprises a rib 39 projecting in the direction of thickness of the vessel wall. This rib 39 develops from a radially inner portion of said inner face 38.
- the flange 37 is for example formed by a peripheral portion of the annular body 35.
- the primary anchoring member 12 comprises an anchoring shoulder 40 projecting radially outwards from the rod 31.
- This anchoring shoulder 40 is inserted between the sealing washer 34 and the primary bearing plate 16
- the anchoring shoulder 40 has a planar anchoring surface 41 developing in a plane perpendicular to the direction of thickness of the vessel wall. This anchoring surface 41 faces the inside of the tank.
- the protective portion 45 is hollow and has an inner end adjoining a peripheral edge of the mounting portion 44.
- the protective portion 45 develops from its inner end along the bellows 42 in the direction of the sealing washer 34 , the bellows 42 being housed in said hollow protection portion 45 .
- the protective portion 45 is also flared so that an outer end of said protective portion 45 is arranged in line with the flange 37 of the sealing washer 34.
- the collar 37 being fixed in a sealed manner to the secondary sealed membrane 2, during deformation of the bearing wall or in the presence of an overpressure in the secondary sealed membrane 2, the local deformation of the secondary sealed membrane 2 at the level of the primary anchoring member 12 is blocked by the abutment of the flange 37 of the sealing washer 34 on the abutment surface 47.
- the mounting portion 44 of the bell 43 is fixed on the rod, for example by welding.
- the primary insulating panels 11 and the secondary insulating panels 5 have identical dimensions and are arranged so that the corners of the secondary insulating panels 5 are aligned along the thickness direction of the vessel wall with the corners of the primary insulating panels 11.
- the primary anchoring member 12 is not anchored in a secondary insulating panel 5 but directly on the secondary anchoring member.
- Such a configuration is for example described in the document WO2014096600 which has a joint anchoring device for the secondary insulating panels 5 and the primary insulating panels 11, the base 30 of the primary anchoring member 12 being fixed to one end of the secondary anchoring member.
- the inner face 38 of the annular body 35 of the sealing washer 34 does not have the rib 39, said inner face 38 being flat.
- the external axial end of the bellows 42 is fixed directly to the internal surface 38 which is flat.
- the bellows 42 having a flared shape, the outer axial end of said bellows 42 is fixed on a radially outer peripheral edge of said inner surface 38.
- the rod 31 has a shoulder 48 projecting laterally.
- This shoulder 48 is inserted between the anchoring shoulder 40 and the sealing washer 34.
- this shoulder 48 has at least one transverse dimension greater than the dimension of the central orifice of the sealing washer 34.
- this shoulder 48 has an outer face 49 facing the inner surface 38 of the annular body 35 of the sealing washer 34.
- a peripheral portion of this outer face 49 forms the abutment surface 47
- This shoulder 48 thus fulfills the function of abutment of the sealing washer 35 blocking the movement towards the interior of the tank of the said sealing washer 34 and preventing the local deformation of the secondary sealed membrane 2.
- the assembly portion 55 of the anchoring cross 54 is flat and develops in a plane perpendicular to the direction of thickness of the vessel wall. This assembly portion 55 has a central hole through which the rod 31 passes so that the anchoring cross 54 is mounted on the rod 31.
- the protective portion 45 of the bell 43 is cylindrical and has a generatrix parallel to the direction of thickness of the vessel wall.
- the outer end of the protective portion 45 of the bell 43 is arranged in line with the inner face 38 of the annular body 35.
- the abutment surface 47 formed by the rim 46 of the outer end of the portion of protection 45 cooperates with the inner face 38 of the annular body 35 to block the movement of the sealing washer 34 towards the inside of the tank.
- the flange 37 projects radially outwards from the annular body 35 beyond the flange 46.
- the internal axial end of the bellows 42 is anchored in a sealed manner, for example by welding, on an external face of the anchoring shoulder 40, that is to say on a face of the anchoring shoulder 40 facing the sealing washer 34.
- the base 63 rests on the secondary sealing membrane 2 around the collar 37.
- the bottom plates 13 of the primary insulating panels 11 cooperating with the primary anchoring member 12 may have an external counterbore 67 to house the base 63.
- the outer skirt 68 has a circular cylindrical wall whose generatrix is parallel to the direction of thickness of the vessel wall. This external skirt 68 develops from the internal periphery of the base 63, that is to say from the edge of the central orifice 66 of the base 63. The external skirt 68 develops towards the inside of the tank on a thickness, along the direction of thickness of the vessel wall, greater than or equal to the thickness, taken along said direction of thickness of the vessel wall, of the annular body 35. Thus, an inner end of the outer skirt 68 is radially in line with the protective portion 45 of the bell 43.
- the inner skirt 69 has a circular cylindrical wall whose generatrix is parallel to the direction of thickness of the vessel wall. This internal skirt 69 develops from the internal periphery of the central plate 82, that is to say from the edge of the central plate 82 delimiting the central orifice 83. The internal skirt 69 develops towards the inside of the tank on a thickness less than the thickness of the protective portion 45 of the bell 43. Thus, the internal skirt 69 surrounds the protective portion 45 of the bell 43 over only part of the thickness of said protective portion 45.
- the envelope 64 surrounds the flange 37 and forms a housing, visible on the figure 11 And 12 , in which the collar 37 is housed with a clearance, ensuring the protection of said collar 37.
- FIG. 13 And 14 illustrate a primary anchor 12 according to a sixth embodiment.
- the transfer wedge 62 is formed by a block 84.
- This block 84 has a central orifice.
- This central orifice has an internal diameter slightly greater than the external diameter of the protective portion 45 of the bell 43 so that the block 84 surrounds the protective portion 45 of the bell 43.
- the block 84 has a thickness, taken along the thickness direction of the vessel wall, less than the thickness of the bottom plate 13 of the adjacent primary insulating panels 11 so that an internal face of the block 84 is arranged at the outside, in the direction of thickness of the vessel wall, of the internal face of the bottom plates 13. Furthermore, in the embodiment illustrated in the figure 13 , the block 84 rests on an internal face of the rim 46 of the protective portion 45 of the bell 43.
- a peripheral side face of the block 84 is of generally complementary shape to the recesses made in the bottom plates 13 of the primary insulating panels 11 cooperating with the primary anchoring member 12.
- the distance separating the bottom plates 13 from the panels primary insulators 11 and block 84 substantially corresponds to an assembly clearance.
- a lateral displacement of a primary insulating panel 11 generates almost from the start of said displacement a support on the peripheral side face of block 84.
- the primary anchor member 12 is at least partially prefabricated.
- a prefabricated portion of the primary anchor member 12 comprises for example, as illustrated in the figure 16 , the base 30, the rod 31, the bellows 42, the internal axial end of which is fixed to the anchoring shoulder 40, and the sealing washer 34 to which the external axial end of the bellows is fixed.
- the method for mounting the primary anchoring member 12 provides for the use of a hollow key 87 comprising internal faces 88 complementary to the flats 85 and 86.
- the hollow portion of the key 87 preferably has a height greater than the height of the rod 31 and at least greater than or also the distance between the internal axial end of the rod and the flat 85 carried by the sealing washer 34.
- the anchoring shoulder 40 and the body 35 comprise six flats 85 and 86, however the number and dimensions of these flats may be different, the primary anchoring member 12 possibly comprising one, two or more flats 85 and 86 complementary to the internal faces 88 of the key 87 so that the sealing washer 34 and the anchoring shoulder, and therefore the rod 31 and the base 30, are connected in rotation when using the key 87 .
- the bell 43 has a flat 89 similar to the flat 86 of the anchoring shoulder 40. Furthermore, the sealing washer 34, and more particularly the flat 85, is arranged radially beyond the rim 46 of the bell 43.
- the internal faces 88 of the key 87 cooperate with the flat of the bell 43 and the flat of the sealing washer 34 to allow the base 30 to be screwed into the housing 29 while driving the washer in rotation. sealing 34 so as not to generate torsion in the bellows 42.
- the technique described above for producing a leaktight and thermally insulating tank can be used in different types of tanks, for example to form an LNG tank in an onshore installation or in a floating structure such as an LNG carrier or other.
- loading/unloading pipes 73 arranged on the upper deck of the ship can be connected, by means of appropriate connectors, to a maritime or port terminal to transfer a cargo of LNG from or to the tank 71.
- pumps on board the ship 70 and/or pumps fitted to the shore installation 77 and/or pumps fitted to the loading and unloading station 75 are used.
