Abstract
L'invention se rapporte notamment à une installation de nettoyage (IN) d’un assemblage combustible (1) qui comporte un embout supérieur (10) et un embout inférieur (11) entre lesquels s’étend une structure de réception de crayons de combustible (14), ledit embout inférieur (11) étant pourvu plusieurs pieds (15) pour l’appui dudit assemblage sur un support, caractérisée par le fait qu’elle comporte : - une enceinte (2) de réception de la partie basse dudit assemblage (1), qui comporte un fond (20) duquel s’élève sensiblement perpendiculairement une paroi périphérique (21) dont le sommet borde une ouverture d’accès (OU), cette ouverture (OU) étant dimensionnée de manière à permettre l’introduction d’au moins l’embout inférieur (11) dudit assemblage (1) ; - un ensemble de verrouillage (3) mobile dans une direction sensiblement parallèle audit fond (2), cet ensemble de verrouillage (3) étant mobile entre une position de repos dans laquelle il ne contrarie pas l’introduction dudit embout inférieur (11) dudit assemblage (1) et une position active de verrouillage dans laquelle il s’appuie sur la paroi périphérique dudit embout inférieur (11) et l’immobilise dans une position telle que lesdits pieds (15) sont positionnées à distance dudit fond (20) de l’enceinte (2) ; - un plateau (4) à surface supérieure (40) accidentée, qui s’étend parallèlement audit fond (20), qui est centré sur l’axe longitudinal (Y-Y’) de ladite enceinte (2) et qui est d’une part mobile en rotation autour dudit axe longitudinal (Y-Y’), et d’autre part mobile en translation pour régler son écartement vis-à-vis dudit fond (20). Figure pour l’abrégé : figure 4The invention relates in particular to an installation (IN) for cleaning a fuel assembly (1) which comprises an upper nozzle (10) and a lower nozzle (11) between which extends a structure for receiving fuel rods (14), said lower end piece (11) being provided with several feet (15) for supporting said assembly on a support, characterized in that it comprises: - an enclosure (2) for receiving the lower part of said assembly (1), which comprises a bottom (20) from which a peripheral wall (21) rises substantially perpendicularly, the top of which borders an access opening (OR), this opening (OR) being dimensioned so as to allow the introduction at least the lower end piece (11) of said assembly (1); - a locking assembly (3) movable in a direction substantially parallel to said bottom (2), this locking assembly (3) being movable between a rest position in which it does not interfere with the introduction of said lower end piece (11) of said assembly (1) and an active locking position in which it rests on the peripheral wall of said lower end piece (11) and immobilizes it in a position such that said feet (15) are positioned at a distance from said bottom (20) of the enclosure (2); - a plate (4) with an uneven upper surface (40), which extends parallel to said bottom (20), which is centered on the longitudinal axis (Y-Y') of said enclosure (2) and which is a mobile part in rotation around said longitudinal axis (Y-Y'), and on the other mobile part in translation to adjust its spacing vis-à-vis said bottom (20).
