The invention can be used for storing liquefied gas for the fuel and energy industry. The inventive device comprises a tank (1) arranged on supports and placed in a bank (17), a pipe for a vapour phase (13), a pipe (16) for extracting liquefied gas which is connected to the bottom part of the tank (1), a pipe (14) for loading liquefied gas, a drain pipe (15), a shielding pipe (10) and a supporting wall (18) adjacent to the bank (17). The shielding pipe (10) is connected to the external surface of the tank (1). The vapour phase pipe (13), the pipe for loading liquefied gas (14) and the drain pipe (15) are arranged in the cavity of the shielding pipe (10) and fixed on to the tank (1) one side thereof and to the end flange (10') of the shielding pipe (10) on the other side. The ends of the vapour phase pipe (13), liquefied gas loading pipe (14) and of the drain pipe (13) arranged inside the tank (1) are embodied such that they are curved. The supporting wall (18) is provided with two through holes. The shielding pipe (10) is arranged in one hole and the pipe (6) for extracting liquefied gas passes through the second hole. Said device can be embodied in the form of several tanks and provided with recirculation pipes (23). The aim of the invention is to develop a compact and safe gas storage device. |
