Definitions

  • the invention relates to a transport and / or storage container for irradiated fuel elements, defective fuel elements and / or fuel element rods of defective fuel elements, with a container jacket, Container interior and arranged therein Storage basket for the fuel elements and / or Fuel rods, the receiving basket via plug connections made of neutron-absorbing light metal plates is assembled and the assembled Light metal plates form receiving shafts in the Metal sleeves are fitted.
  • the invention has for its object a transport and / or To design storage containers of the type mentioned in the introduction that with it also the defective fuel elements and Fuel rod transported defective fuel elements and / or can be stored without the grid of the basket to change.
  • the solution to this problem according to the invention consists in that at least one metal sleeve as a jacket for a sleeve the immediate reception of the defective fuel elements and / or fuel rods of such fuel elements are used is.
  • the invention is based on knowledge from that the previously known transport and / or storage containers for irradiated fuel rods also for the named special purpose can be used if the defective fuel elements and / or fuel rods defective fuel elements are reloaded into cans, the Jacket consists of the metal sleeves. That way it is possible intact and defective irradiated fuel assemblies as well possibly also defective individual fuel rods Transport fuel elements together in the container and to store.
  • the jacket on is provided with wall recesses in the upper end Gripper elements of a sleeve manipulation device can be inserted are.
  • the can itself has one at the bottom of the mantle fastened bottom and one on the upper end on the cover.
  • This lid is preferably provided with a locking device, to be able to load and unload the rifle.
  • the transport and / or storage container shown in the figures is used for the transport or storage of irradiated Fuel elements, defective fuel elements and Fuel rods from defective fuel elements.
  • the Receiving basket 3 is made of neutron-absorbing connectors
  • the receiving shafts 4 are metal sleeves 5th fitted, partially as a jacket of a sleeve 6 for the immediate recording of the defective fuel elements and / or Defective fuel rods are used.
  • the jacket 5 is at the upper end Wall recesses 7 provided in the gripper organs Rifle manipulation device, not shown in detail can be introduced.
  • the bushing 6 a bottom 9 attached to the lower end of the jacket 5 and a lid exposed on the upper end of the jacket 5 10 has.
  • the lid 10 is with a locking device 11 provided in further recesses 12 of the wall enclosing bolts 13. Furthermore you can see in the figures that the bottom 9 and the lid 10 each have at least one opening 14 into which a Filter insert 15 is inserted.
