摘要： A shipping container is constructed for shipping channeled fuel bundle assemblies. The shipping container includes an outer container, an inner container sized to fit within the outer container, and shock absorbing material disposed at least between the outer and inner containers. The inner container is shaped to house at least one pre-channeled fuel bundle assembly including a channel, a channel fastener, and an array of fuel rods supported by grid spacers between an upper tie plate and a lower tie plate. The inner container includes a lower tie plate restraint device shaped to receive the lower tie plate and a lower portion of the channel, and an upper tie plate restraint device shaped to receive the upper tie plate and an upper portion of the channel and channel fastener assembly. The lower and upper tie plate restraint devices are lockable within the inner shipping container.

摘要： A lifting tool is used for lifting a channel on and off of a nuclear fuel bundle. The lifting tool includes a lifting bail and a leg assembly secured to the lifting bail. The leg assembly has an adjustable width, adjustable between a narrower pre-lifting position and a wider lifting position. The lifting legs are engageable with the channel clips in the lifting position.
