CONTAINER FOR THE CRYOGENIC STORAGE OF FUEL

The invention relates to a container for the low-temperature, cryogenic storage of fuel, formed by an outer container and an interior container of cylindrical cross-section having dome-shaped ends, comprising an intermediate space between the outer container and the inner container, in which intermediate space at least a super-insulating means and a device for introducing gaseous fuel into and removing and blowing off gaseous fuel from the container are provided, which device consists at least of a pipe leading from outside of the container in the region of the dome through the outer container and the super-insulating means into the inner container. According to the invention said container is characterized in that the pipe is fastened to the inner circumference of the outer container by means of a fastening device, the pipe extending at least partially along the inner circumference of the outer container, in such a way that, during a blow-off operation, fuel that is flowing through the pipe and that is to be blown off is heated by heat conduction from the outer container via the fastening device in such a way that the fuel can be fed to a utilization system outside of the container, which utilization system at least has lines that are not suitable for low-temperature fuel.
