Abstract
1358199 Fuelling reactors ATOMIC ENERGY OF CANADA Ltd 10 Sept 1971 [26 Oct 1970] 42373/71 Heading G6C A nuclear reactor fuel channel 38 which extends horizontally and is sealed by a flap valve 40 is fuelled by means of a fuelling machine 1 comprising a casing 2, a driven endless conveyer 4 within the casing, a fuel stringer engaging means 30 and fuel stringer guides 32 on the conveyer, a rotatable ram 6 having an inclined end face 33, and means 10, 35 for rotating the ram when it has been advanced to open the flap valve 40 so that the inclined face 33 is turned away from the flap valve. By sealing the fuelling machine 1 to a pressurized fuel channel 38, the ram 6 may be advanced to open the flap valve 40, rotated, and then retracted to allow a spent fuel stringer 42 to be moved out of the fuel channel 38 by the coolant flow until the fuel stringer is engaged by the means 30 and hauled on to the conveyer 4. A second fuelling machine containing a fresh fuel stringer may be connected to the other end of the fuel channel and the spent fuel stringer assisted from the fuel channel by the advancement of the fresh fuel stringer.
