<p>The present invention concerns a metal membrane for a low-temperature-fluid storage tank wherein longitudinal and transverse corrugations are formed and both corrugations intersect each other. In the intersection of the corrugations, a bidirectional expandable member connected to each corrugation is formed so that the bidirectional expandable member is longitudinally and transversely expandable. The bidirectional expandable member is protruded and is shaped like a pyramid, a dome or a cross. Each metal membrane is welded into a unit panel and the edge of each metal membrane is welded with the common edge of another adjacent metal membrane to keep a cargo warehouse air-tight, and ultra-low-temperature LNG is stored inside the cargo warehouse, so when the metal membrane contracts due to thermal deviation, the present invention reduces plane rigidity and, at the same time, equalizes plane rigidity of two intersecting directions. Accordingly, durability is improved, air-tightness is maintained and storage of low-temperature liquid is stabilized, regardless of extreme thermal deviation. Furthermore, fabrication of the storage tank is improved because the present metal membrane is easily clamped by a clamping unit of a welding robot or a transfer device.</p> |
