A transport container for helium, having an inner container for receiving helium, a thermal shield actively coolable with the aid of a cryogenic liquid and in which the inner container is accommodated, an outer container in which the thermal shield and inner container are accommodated, and a carrying ring provided on the thermal shield. The inner container is suspended from the carrying ring with the aid of first suspension rods, wherein the carrying ring is suspended from the outer container with the aid of second suspension rods, wherein at least one of the first suspension rods has a first spring device and at least one of the second suspension devices has a second spring device in order to ensure a spring pretension of the first suspension rods and the second suspension rods for different heat expansions of the inner container and the thermal shield.

Transport container

The invention relates to a transport container () for helium (He), comprising an inner container () for receiving the liquid (He), an insulation element () that is provided on the exterior of the inner container (), a coolant container () for receiving a cryogenic liquid (N), an outer container () in which the inner container () and the coolant container () are received, and a thermal shield () which can be actively cooled with the aid of the cryogenic liquid (N) and in which the inner container () is received, wherein a peripheral gap () is provided between the insulation element () and the thermal shield (), and said insulation element () comprises a copper layer () that faces the thermal shield ().
