Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、原子炉圧力容器内の炉心支持板およびそれに多数取付けられている燃料支持金具を清掃する炉内清掃装置に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
原子炉圧力容器の中間部には図10に示す炉心支持板10が固定され、その炉心支持板10に多数形成された円形孔に夫々燃料支持金具5の中間部以下が嵌着される。この燃料支持金具5は図11および図12に示す如く、その上端部に膨大部5aが形成され、その膨大部5aの上面に四つの受け口6が等間隔に離間して設けられている。膨大部5aの下方は横断面円形に形成され、その内部と受け口6内とが連通する。受け口6内は、その上部において中間側に向かって案内する湾曲面5bを有する。
【0003】
また、燃料支持金具5の中間部外周には連通孔31が形成され、それが各受け口6に連通する。さらに燃料支持金具5の中央位置には横断面十字状の制御棒挿通孔37が上下方向に貫通している。そしてそこに制御棒32が上下動自在に挿通される。この制御棒32は図10に示す如く、四本の燃料集合体28の間にできる十字状の隙間に挿脱自在に挿通されるものである。
【0004】
このような構造を有する燃料支持金具5の内部および炉心支持板10の表面には、放射性物質を含む塵埃が次第に堆積される。そこで、定期的にその堆積物を清掃する必要がある。その際には、圧力容器の上蓋を取り外し、夫々の燃料集合体28を取り除くと共に、制御棒32を引抜く。そして、圧力容器内に炉水を満たした状態で清掃が行われる。
従来の清掃方法は、操作用ポールに吸引ホースを縛り付け、燃料支持金具の受け口からそれを挿入して内部の塵埃を炉水と共に吸引する。また、炉心支持板上も同様の方法により吸引し、清掃していた。
【0005】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
このような清掃は、約20m程上方から操作用のポールで吸引ホースの先端を移動しつつ行っていたため、その吸引ホースの先端を迅速に燃料支持金具の受け口内に挿入することが面倒であり、多大の時間と労力を要していた。
また、その操作中に炉内機器に操作用ポールが接触するおそれもあるため、慎重に行なう必要があり極めて面倒な作業であった。
そこで本発明は、複数の位置決め部材を用いて迅速に燃料支持金具5の内部および炉心支持板10の表面を清掃することができる清掃装置を提供することを課題とする。
【0006】
【課題を解決するための手段】

【0010】
【発明の実施の形態】
次に、図面に基づいて本発明の実施の形態につき説明する。
図1は本清掃装置の一部を省略した正面図であり、図2はその側面図、図3はその平面図である。そして図4は同清掃装置下部の要部を示す分解斜視図であり、図5は同要部の正面図、図6は同側面図、図7は図6の VII− VII矢視図である。また、図8は図5,図6の駆動手段12を示す説明図であり、図9はその駆動手段12のピストンロッド27を下降させたときの、第二吸引ノズル11の移動状況を示す説明図である。
【0011】
この炉内清掃装置35は、装置本体3と、その下端に一対突設された下部位置決め部7と、下部位置決め部7の下面に突設された一対の第一吸引ノズル8と、一対の第一吸引ノズル8の裏面側に配置された第二吸引ノズル11とを有する。
装置本体3は、その横断面の全てが図10に示す上部格子1の格子開口2よりも小に形成されている。装置本体3の中間部よりも上方は、パイプ材を用いた枠形に形成され、その上端部外周は前記上部格子1の格子開口2の内周に略整合する。即ち、その外周は格子開口2よりも僅かに小に形成されて上部位置決め部4を構成する。そして上部位置決め部4の下端には、テーパー状のガイド部38が形成されている。
【0012】
さらに中間部には、一対のフランジ39を介して炉内清掃装置35の下部が接続されている。このフランジ39の下面にはヘッダ19が設けられ、そのヘッダ19に水パイプ20が連通する。また、そのフランジ39には3本の吸引管18,41が貫通し、そのうち一対の吸引管18の先端部外周には下部位置決め部7が固定されている。そして吸引管18はその下端部位置決め部7を貫通し、その先端に第一吸引ノズル8が設けられている。一対のこの第一吸引ノズル8は、先端開口が図7の如くハの字状に位置される。そして下部位置決め部7の上面側には図4に示す如くブラケット9が設けられ、このブラケット9に第二吸引ノズル11が矢印方向に移動自在に取付けられ、ブラケット9に対して第2吸引ノズル11を水平方向に往復動させるように駆動手段12が設けられている。
【0013】
この駆動手段12は、図8,図9に示すカム機構22からなり、ブラケット9に固定された基板9aに水平ガイドレール40が案内され、そのガイドレール40に第2吸引ノズル11が固定されている。そのガイドレール40にはピン26が突設され、そのピン26が基板9aおよび垂直ガイド9bの図示しない水平なスリットを貫通する。さらにそのピン26がカム板25のカム溝25aに案内されている。そのカム板25はシリンダ23のピストンロッド27の先端に固定されている。
そしてシリンダ23のピストンロッド27を図8の状態から図9の如く伸張させることにより、カム機構22のカム溝25aにピン26を案内させ、それに伴って第二吸引ノズル11を基板9aに対して左方(矢印方向)に移動させるものである。この移動によって第二吸引ノズル11は、後述するように炉心支持板10の表面を広範囲に清掃することができる。
【0014】
その第二吸引ノズル11の上端には、図1の如く、吸引ホース17の下端が接続され、その吸引ポース17の上端が吸引管41に連結されている。
次に、下部位置決め部7は円板状に形成され、その外周が燃料支持金具5の上端に設けた受け口6に整合する。そして、一対の下部位置決め部7の間隔は燃料支持金具の5の隣接する一対の受け口6のそれに整合する。
また、装置本体3の上端には、上端板13が固定されている。この上端板13にはその中心に操作棒取り付け端16が突設されると共に、その操作棒取り付け端16の近傍にワイヤ係止部15が突設されている。このワイヤ係止部15は、装置全体の重心を通る垂直線上に位置にされている。
図3において、上端板13の右側にはケーブル挿通孔14が開口し、その開口に電気ケーブルや吸引ホース・水ハイプ用の連結ホースが挿通される。
【0015】
このようにしてなる炉内清掃装置35は、図16に示すように使用される。即ち、圧力容器33の上方に走行自在に配置された燃料交換機34から吊り下げ装置40を介してワイヤ36により炉内清掃装置35を吊り下げる。そして、その炉内清掃装置35を圧力容器33内に降ろし、上部格子1の格子開口2を通過させ、その先端を炉心支持板10の燃料支持金具5に挿入する。
このとき炉内清掃装置35の上部位置決め部4の外周が上部格子1の格子開口2に整合し、炉内清掃装置35の下端の一対の下部位置決め部7が燃料支持金具5の一対の受け口6に整合する。そして下部位置決め部7から突出された第一吸引ノズル8が受け口6内に進入し、その一対のノズル端が図13に示す如く、燃料支持金具5のハの字状に中心側に向けられ、特に塵埃が堆積しがちなその部分を集中的に清掃するものである。
【0016】
なお、この第一吸引ノズル8の下端外周には図4に示す如く、小孔21が背面および両側に配置され、内部に導かれた水パイプ20から噴出する水を小孔21からその背面側および両側側に噴き出させる。そして燃料支持金具5の受け口6内に堆積した塵埃を巻き上げ、その巻き上げた塵埃を炉水と共に第一吸引ノズル8によって吸い上げる。
このとき、第二吸引ノズル11の先端は図10の炉心支持板10上に僅かな隙間を開けて対向する。そして炉心支持板10上の塵埃を炉水と共に吸い上げる。
【0017】
次いで図14の如く、左側のシリンダ23のピストンロッド27を縮小すると共に、右側のシリンダ23のピストンロッド27を伸張させることにより、夫々のカム機構22を介して第二吸引ノズル11を図において右側に移動させ、その位置の炉心支持板10上の塵埃を第二吸引ノズル11の下端から吸い込む。
次いで図15に示す如く、図14の場合とは逆に左側のシリンダ23のピストンロッド27を伸張させると共に、右側のシリンダ23のピストンロッド27を縮小させ、第二吸引ノズル11を下部位置決め部7に対して左側に水平移動させる。そしてその位置の炉心支持板10上の塵埃を吸引して清掃するものである。
【0018】
以上のようにして、図13における一つの燃料支持金具5の左側における一対の受け口6の内部および炉心支持板10上を清掃する。
次に、一つの燃料支持金具5の右側の受け口6内を清掃するには、図16において炉内清掃装置35を一旦引き上げ、それを左右逆向きにして再び同一の上部格子1の格子開口2内に挿入する。即ち、図1において一対の第一吸引ノズル8および第二吸引ノズル11は、上部位置決め部4の中心対して左側に寄った位置に配置されているものを、180°回転させることによりそれらを右側に寄らせることができる。するとそこで、燃料支持金具5の右側の一対の受け口6内を清掃することができる。それと共に、燃料支持金具5の右側における炉心支持板10部分を清掃できる。
【0019】
なお、図13において燃料支持金具5より上側および下側を第二吸引ノズル11で清掃するには、炉内清掃装置35を90°回転してから格子開口2の上部格子1に挿入し、その下端を炉心支持板10の燃料支持金具5に嵌着させれば良い。
図16において、ワイヤ36は図1の上端に突設されたワイヤ係止部15に係止される。このワイヤ係止部15は、炉内清掃装置35の重心上の真上に位置するため、装置全体を垂直に保って下降することができる。また、上端板13の操作棒取り付け端16には図示しない操作棒が取付けられる。この操作棒は、炉内清掃装置35の姿勢および位置を圧力容器33の上方から作業員が手動で制御するものである。その操作棒は、定尺のものを順次直列に連結できるような構造となっている。
【0020】
【発明の作用・効果】
本発明の炉内清掃装置は、長尺な装置本体3の下部に下部位置決め部7が突設され、それが燃料支持金具5の受け口6に整合すると共に、下部位置決め部7の下端より下方に第一吸引ノズル8が突設されているから、下部位置決め部7を燃料支持金具5の受け口6に嵌着状態で、受け口6内を第一吸引ノズル8によって確実に清掃することができる。
さらに、第一吸引ノズル8の先端開口を燃料支持金具5の中心側に向けたので、燃料支持金具5の塵埃の溜まり易い部分を集中的に清掃することができる。
【0021】
上記構成において、装置本体3の上部に上部格子1の格子開口2に整合する上部位置決め部4を設け、下部位置決め部7および第一吸引ノズル8を夫々一対、装置本体3の下端に並列して突設することができる。それにより、一対の受け口6を同時に効率良く清掃することが可能となる。
また、上部位置決め部4の存在により一対の下部位置決め部7を夫々の受け口6に容易に嵌着することができる。
【0022】
上記何れかの構成において、装置本体3の下端部外周のブラケット9に第二吸引ノズル11を可動自在に取り付けることができる。そして駆動手段12によって、第二吸引ノズル11を水平方向に往復駆動することにより、炉心支持板10の表面をより広い範囲で清掃することが可能となる。

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to an in-core cleaning device for cleaning a core support plate in a reactor pressure vessel and a number of fuel support fittings attached thereto.
[0002]
[Prior art]
A core support plate 10 shown in FIG. 10 is fixed to the intermediate portion of the reactor pressure vessel, and the portions below the intermediate portion of the fuel support fitting 5 are fitted into circular holes formed in the core support plate 10. As shown in FIGS. 11 and 12, the fuel support fitting 5 has an enormous portion 5a formed at the upper end portion thereof, and four receiving ports 6 are provided at equal intervals on the upper surface of the enormous portion 5a. The lower portion of the enormous portion 5a is formed in a circular cross section, and the inside communicates with the inside of the receiving port 6. The interior of the receiving port 6 has a curved surface 5b that guides toward the middle side at the top.
[0003]
Further, a communication hole 31 is formed in the outer periphery of the intermediate portion of the fuel support fitting 5 and communicates with each receiving port 6. Further, a control rod insertion hole 37 having a cross-shaped cross section penetrates in the center of the fuel support fitting 5 in the vertical direction. And the control rod 32 is inserted there through so as to be movable up and down. As shown in FIG. 10, the control rod 32 is removably inserted into a cross-shaped gap formed between the four fuel assemblies 28.
[0004]
Dust containing radioactive material is gradually deposited inside the fuel support fitting 5 having such a structure and on the surface of the core support plate 10. Therefore, it is necessary to clean the deposits periodically. At that time, the upper lid of the pressure vessel is removed, the respective fuel assemblies 28 are removed, and the control rod 32 is pulled out. And cleaning is performed in the state which filled the reactor water in the pressure vessel.
In the conventional cleaning method, a suction hose is tied to the operation pole, and the suction dust is inserted together with the reactor water by inserting it from the receiving port of the fuel support fitting. The core support plate was also sucked and cleaned by the same method.
[0005]
