Definitions

  • This invention relates to television guided grapple apparatus for remote locations and has an important application in apparatus for removingbroken particles of fuel elements from the fuel channels of nuclear reactors.
  • the present invention comprises the combination of a television camera of the reactor inspection type carried on the end of a flexible supporting and supply cable together with mechanical handling apparatus capable of gripping a broken fragment of fuel and mounted on the underside of the camera, a first driving spindle for actuating said apparatus extending longitudinally along the outside of the camera and a second driving spindle for positioning the handling apparatus also extending longitudinally along the outside of the camera and electrical driving apparatus for operating each of said spindles and located above the camera.
  • the spindles may be suitably positioned along the sides of the cathode ray tube for instance, side by side, or concentrically.
  • the driving spindles may extend along the sides of the camera on diametrically opposite sides.
  • reactor inspection television camera implies a camera of the kind which is located in a cylindrical housing and supported by a supply cable at the upper end whilst at the other end there can be an adjustable mirror for selecting the area to be viewed.
  • a camera is described in the Journal of the British Nuclear Energy Conference in a paper entitled Uranium Fuel Handling, and presented November 22 and 23, 1956.
  • the handling apparatus may comprise tongs or a grab which may be opened and closed to grip a fragment of fuel.
  • the assembly may be lowered into a fuel channel from the winding drum on which'the multi core supply cable is wound and when not in use it may held inside a shielded coffin.
  • FIG. 1 is a general vertical view of the apparatus
  • FIG. 2 is a sectional plan view on the line 11-11 of FIG. 1,
  • FIG. 3 is an enlarged view of the handling apparatus
  • FIG. 4 shows a detachable head used in the arrangement of FIG. 3,
  • FIG. 5 is an underside view of a detachable head.
  • FIG. 6 shows somewhat diagrammatically a modified arrangement of the drive
  • FIGS. 7 and 8 which correspond to FIGS. 1 and 2, respectively show a modified form of easing.
  • the apparatus shown comprises a cylindrical casing 1 and longitudinal ribs 2 which are adapted to fit in vertical guide grooves in the fuel channel.
  • the television camera indicated generally by the reference numeral 3
  • the handling apparatus indicated generally by the reference numeral 4.
  • the whole assembly is suspended on the end of a stainless steel flexible hose 5 encasing a multi-core supply cable 5A which enters the top of the casing. Coolant gas can also pass through the interior of the hose to the camera and other apparatus, as indicated by the arrows.
  • drive motors 7 Within an extension 6 at the upper end of the casing 1 are located drive motors 7.
  • FIGS. 3, 4 and 5 which show the handling apparatus at the lower end of the assembly, there is shown attached to the underside of the camera casing a circular support member 10 carrying an annular member 11 having an inwardly projecting rim 12 which slides in a channel in the support member 10.
  • a pinion drive 13 engages teeth 14 around the periphery of the annular member 11 for the purpose of rotating it.
  • the annular member 11 carries a detachable handling head which consists of a plate 15 having a pair of parallel flanges 16 which slide in corresponding grooves in the ring member 11.
  • the plate 15 is formed on the underside with a pair of lugs 17 and carries.
  • a pair of tongs 18 which are pivoted at 19 so that they can expand and contract in a horizontal plane.
  • the control ofthese tongs is effected through a spindle 20 which drives a left and right hand nut 21 acting on the expanding and contracting rods 22 which are pivoted to the two tongs 18.
  • the spindle 20 is driven through bevel gearing from an annular bevel wheel 23 carried ona ring 24 which is rotatable about the plate 15 through a pinion 25 which in turn is driven through the vertical spindle 9. It will be appreciated that there will normally be a number of plates lSeach carrying a pair of tongs 18 which are of a different size and anappropriate set will-be selected in accordance with the job which is to be performed.
  • the television camera is so directed that objects gripped between the tongs may be observed.
  • the tongs are not actuated by virtue of interaction between the ring 24 and pinion 25. This actuation of the tongs may be avoided by' a compensating rotation of shaft 9 when shaft 8 is rotated or by disengaging the solenoid operated clutch26 so as to disconnect the drive.
  • FIG. 6 shows a modified arrangement in which both shaft 8 and shaft 9-are driven from a single motor 27.
  • the shaft 9 is driven through a clutch 28 operated by a solenoid 29.
  • clutch 28 is disengaged, but when the head is to be rotated, clutch 28 is engaged. This will rotate shaft 9 and at the same time apply a compensating rotation to shaft 8.
  • FIGS. 7 and 8 show a modification of the arrangement of FIG. 1 which can be used in circular fuel channels without guide grooves.
  • the casing 1 is circular and the driving shafts 8 and 9 are adjacent.
  • wing pieces of channel sections 30 and 31 may be attached as shown; these are attached in the actual arrangement shown by 3 bolts 32 extending through plates 33 attached to the side members of the channel sections.
  • the supply leads in this case pass through a multi pin plug and socket connection at 35 and the cable 5 to the television camera passes outside of the motors and not through hollow spindles, as in the arrangement of FIG. 1.
