摘要 |
The invention relates to a sealed insulating vessel, particularly for liquefied natural gas, comprising: a supporting wall (1) having anchoring members (2) arranged in a repeating pattern; a sealing barrier that is to be in contact with a material contained in the vessel; and a thermally insulating barrier arranged between the sealing barrier and the supporting wall, the thermally insulating barrier comprising a plurality of insulating panels (30-33) arranged in the repeating pattern, an insulating panel being attached each time to the supporting wall by an adhesive (46) placed onto a bottom surface of the insulating panel, and one or more anchoring members of the supporting wall engaging each time with a bore (45, 47) passing through the insulating panel. The number of anchoring members per insulating panel is between 1 and 6, preferably between 2 and 3. A method for attaching the insulating panels involves using a clamping tool (40-44). |
