Definitions

  • Such elements are utilized in atomic piles and embody a central active portion containing the nuclear combustible, and two inert ends or extremities, all enclosed in a cartridge or sheath which may, for example, be of stainless steel or of an alloy of zirconium known as Zircaloy. After a period of irradiation in the pile the combustible must be treated or processed for the purpose of restoring its purity to a predetermined value, by elimination or extraction therefrom of fission products so that it may be re-used.
  • FIG. 23 is a detail sectional view on line 23 23, FIG. 22;
  • a passageway 17 opens through one side wall of chamber 6 and extends outwardly and upwardly, FIG. 5, to open through the floor of enclosure 34, FIG. 3.
  • Spaced parallel rails 18 extend along this passageway to support a carriage 14 rolling on flanged wheels 19.
  • the carriage is elongated and has chains or cables 20, 21 attached at spaced points along its length. Chain also appears upon FIG. 5. These chains are connected at their other ends to Windlass means subsequently described, by which the carriage loaded with an element 1 may be pulled upwardly out of chamber 6, in guided translation on and along tracks 18.
  • the saws of one pair are identified generally at 72 and 73 where they are shown so located in enclosure 34 as to operate upon the nuclear elements moved to the left as viewed upon FIG. 10.
  • a second pair of such saws is, as previously noted, provided at 85, 86, FIG. 3, for operation upon elements 1 when moved to the right from the central position indicated, FIG. 10.
  • Each arm like 61a is provided with a sloping surface such as 61c, followed by a vertical surface forming a shoulder with the horizontal surface of the respective arm.
  • pulleys 88, 89 are journaled in superposed relation and guide a saw blade or band 90 in the manner conventional with ban saws.
  • the frame of saw 72 includes an abutment 91 threaded onto a shaft 92, FIG. 17, so that it may be adjusted on and along the shaft for engagement with the corresponding end of element 1.
  • the element is thereby accurately collocated with respect to blade 90, to assure that its out is in the correct plane normal to the longitudinal axis of the element.
  • Band saw pulley 89 is connected to be driven by a motor 93. There is one of these motors for each saw, located within enclosure 34, and each may protected by suitable sheathing of lead or like material, not shown.
  • Motor 56 is continued in operation until the element being moved thereby, rests upon the fixed supporting surfaces such as 1 12, 113, FIG. 14, with which all of the saws are provided. The motor is then stopped. Next, handwheels 79 and 84 are operated to move each saw 72, 73 along its tracks until each abutment like 91, FIGS. 14 and 17, is in contact with its respective end 2 of element 1. The saw motors like 93, of saws 72 and 73 are then energized and motor 56 is started in a direction which advances the element into the blades of the saw, to thereby cut off ends 2.
  • handwheel 221 is rotated until pointer 223 indicates on dial 222 that spout 192 is vertically above another selected pipe such as 199.
  • I-Iandwheel 215 is then reversely rotated to lower casing 192 until spout 192b is fully seated on the rim of the selected opening in the bottom wall 193a.
  • the apparatus is then in condition for further operation to fill the second pipe such as 199, with sheared fragments and detritus.
