Abstract A heat storage means with an inner container, an outer container surrounding the inner container with clearance and with the formation of a preferably evacuated insulating space has two ducts leading through the insulating space into the inner container, one of such ducts serving as a supply duct and the other serving as a return duct for a heat transport vehicle fluid. The duct sections passing through the insulating space pass from the lower side of the outer container through the insulating space as far as the upper part of the insulating space and then via a bend into the upper part of the inner container and the part, adjacent to the outer container and the bend of the duct sections are deformable and are preferably like bellows.
A heat storage means comprising an inner container with a storage core therein, an outer container surrounding the inner container with clearance and so as to form an evacuated insulating space, two ducts running from the outside through the insulating space into the inner container, one of such ducts serving as a supply duct for a heat vehicle fluid and the other thereof serving as a return line for same, the duct sections passing through the insulating space having a straight section extending outwards through the outer container and an elbow opening into the inner container and adjoining said straight section, said straight and bent sections both being deformable and being adjustable such that the sections extend and contract along a longitudinal axis of the sections for enabling stretching and compressing of said sections to accommodate connection of said ducts and means for coupling said ducts with a connecting pipe, said coupling means integrally formed at a free end of the straight sections.
