Abstract

PURPOSE:To produce an excellent adiabatic performance by fixing thread fittings on both the ends of supporting rod made of low thermal conductive material, and coating low friction material on either a spherical seat or a spherical nut fitting on a screw. CONSTITUTION:Thread fittings 36 are fixed on both the ends of a supporting rod 3a made of low thermal conductive material, and a spherical seat 4 is loosely fitted near the thread end of the thread fittings 3b, then a spherical nut is engaged on its thread. Low friction material is coated on the spherical seat 4 and the opposite plane of the spherical nut 5 to the above seat 4, and the engaged part 2a of a peripheral vessel 2 supports the engaged part 1a of very low temperature vessel 1 through a supporting rod 3. Consequently, since no bending stress is generated in the supporting rod, the adiabatic supporting member can be diminished in its sectional area to reduce the quantity of heat entering the very low temperature vessel.

In addition to the weight of the cryogenic container0), this heat insulating support device is subject to various loads such as thermal contraction displacement caused when the cryogenic container cools, vibration loads due to transportation and earthquakes, and electromagnetic force in the case of superconducting equipment. ing. When the aforementioned heat shrinkage displacement or displacement due to various loads acts in the direction of the arrow (■) in the drawing, the spherical seat) and the spherical part of the spherical nut 0 automatically slide through the low-friction material 0, and the heat insulating support ■The support direction changes. Therefore, only a simple tensile load acts on the heat insulating support (3). That is, since no bending stress is generated in the heat insulating support (2), only the strength against a simple tensile load needs to be considered, and the cross-sectional area of the heat insulating support can be set small. This leads to the effect that the amount of heat intrusion can be reduced because the amount of heat conducted by the cryogenic container is proportional to the cross-sectional area. In addition, a heat insulating support (3) on the contact surface between the cryogenic container (1) or the outer peripheral container (■) and the spherical seat (0)
