Abstract

A structural support for cryogenic apparatus used in a vacuum vessel includes a plurality of spaced parallel plate members having honeycomb structures interposed therebetween and joined to the plate members. The honeycomb structure provides for a plurality of cells which are the same pressure existing within the vacuum vessel by reason of apertures being provided in the plate members or cell structures. The apertures are arranged so that they are offset from plate-to-plate or cell-to-cell in order that there be no direct optical path from the top of the support structure to the bottom or from side-to-side.
