Disclosed is an unlatching tool (100) that may be used to unlatch a control rod from a control drive. The unlatching tool may include a baseplate (110), a first guide member (120) and a second guide member (125) attached to the baseplate (110), a first frame (140A) and a second frame (140B) attached to the baseplate (110), a stepper motor (155) attached to the first frame (140A), a worm drive (150) attached to the first frame (140A), a cable reel shaft (400) attached to the first and second frame (140A,140B), a hose (200) wrapped around the cable reel shaft (400), and a hook (180) attached to a first end of the hose (200). The hook (180) may include a cylindrical sleeve (182) having at least one finger (184,185,186) configured to fold and unfold. Disclosed also is a method of unlatching a control rod from a control drive.

Refueling of a nuclear reactor (40) includes removing a fuel assembly (10). The removal method includes lowering a lifting tool (80) of a crane (44) onto a top of the fuel assembly. The lowered lifting tool including a plurality of downwardly extending elements (82) that surround and vertically overlap a portion (74) of a control rod assembly (70) extending above the top of the fuel assembly. The downwardly extending elements are locked with corresponding mating features (26) at the top of the fuel assembly to connect the lifting tool with the fuel assembly. The connected fuel assembly is moved into a spent fuel pool (42) using the crane, and the lifting tool is disconnected from the top of the fuel assembly by unlocking the downwardly extending elements from the corresponding mating features at the top of the fuel assembly.

A load compensating device (15) for a nuclear fuel element handling machine has : a frame (16) fitted to a fixed supporting structure (13); a slide (17), which runs along the frame (16) and is attached to a hoisting member (6) such as a cable; a first and second fluid-operated piston device (18a, 18b) connected mechanically in series to each other and to the slide (17); and an operating fluid feed circuit (19) for parallel-feeding operating fluid to the piston devices (18). The first piston device (18a) is designed to keep the tension of the hoisting member (6) above a given minimum value (T min ); and the second piston device (18b) is designed to keep the maximum tension of the hoisting member (6) below a given maximum value (T max ).
摘要:
The invention refers to a device and a method for handling a fuel assembly (3), which comprises a number of fuel rods extending between a lower part and an upper part of the fuel assembly, a debris filter located in the lower part of the fuel assembly and a casing surrounding the fuel rods. The device comprises a lifting device (15) for engaging, during a lifting operation, a fuel assembly located in a reactor vessel (1) and lifting the fuel assembly upwards and out from the reactor vessel. A conduit member is connected to the upper part of the fuel assembly. A pump (32) creates a flow of water through the conduit member and the fuel assembly during the lifting operation. The flow has such a size that possible debris particles contained in and/or immediately beneath the debris filter at least are retained in and/or immediately beneath the debris filter during the iifting operation.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a method for fuel handling comprising lifting of fuel assemblies (4) out of/into a nuclear reactor. The nuclear reactor comprises a reactor vessel (1) which in turn comprises a reactor core (5) with a plurality of fuel assemblies (4) and control rods (11) and a fuel pool (3) arranged adjacent the reactor vessel (1). According to one aspect of the invention, the whole of or parts of the reactor core (5) is or are simultaneously lifted out of and into the reactor vessel (1), respectively. The removed fuel assemblies (4) or the control rods (11) or the fuel assemblies (4) and the control rods (11) are arranged temporarily in the fuel pool (3).

The present invention relates to a method and a device for correction of the movements of a suspension device (9a) and positioning thereof in a fluid. The suspension device (9a) is provided with a first and a second end, and the first end is suspended from a point (S). A correction device (13) is arranged at the second end of the suspension device (9a) and adapted to generate a force which provides an acceleration in the fluid such that the position of the second end of the suspension device (9a) is corrected.
