交換作業の遅れる因となる。 Generally used fuel channels are radioactive and cannot be taken out into the air for cleaning or inspection, and during periodic inspections, the fuel channels pulled out of the reactor are simply stored in fuel storage racks. and will be examined here. However, crud is attached to the surface of the fuel channel, and since the appearance of the fuel channel is inspected with the crud attached, it is difficult to discover scratches formed on the surface of the fuel channel. Furthermore, if the crud attached to the surface of the fuel channel peels off, the crud will float in the pool water, obstructing visibility and causing delays in fuel replacement work.
本発明は上記した点に鑑みてなされたもので、
燃料チヤンネルの外面に付着したクラツドを剥離

ない吸引ノズルに接続されている。 As shown in FIG. 2, the external vacuum cleaner main body 1 has
An outer body 5 having an opening 4 on the upper and lower surfaces through which the fuel channel 3 is inserted, and a pair of rotating brushes 6a, 6b arranged vertically inside the outer body 5.
and an injection nozzle 7 arranged adjacent to the opening 4, and one end of a suction hose 9 is connected to a connection nozzle 8 provided on the side surface of the outer body 5. The other end of the suction hose 9 is connected to a suction nozzle 11 (not shown) of an underwater vacuum cleaner provided on a support shelf 10 protruding from the wall of the fuel pool 2.

つている。 On the other hand, the underwater vacuum cleaner 11 is controlled by a control device 12 provided, for example, near the fuel pool 2, and is controlled by a negative pressure generated by water sucked by a suction hose 9 from the injection nozzle 7 to the outer surface of the fuel channel 3. Water is now being sprayed towards.
他方上記回転ブラシ6a,6bは、挿通される

当接することになる。 On the other hand, the rotating brushes 6a, 6b are arranged so as to contact and surround the fuel channel 3 inserted therethrough. Therefore, if the fuel channel 3 is square, the rotating brush will come into contact with each side of the square.
なお第1図中符号13は燃料チヤンネル3の上

is positioned directly above the opening 4 of the exterior cleaner body 1 (dotted line position), then the fuel channel 3 is moved downward and inserted into the exterior body 5 from above. At the same time, the rotating brushes 6a and 6b operate, and the fuel channel 3
The crud (not shown) adhering to the outer surface of is removed by rotating brushes 6a and 6b. The separated crud floats inside the outer body 5, and when the underwater vacuum cleaner 11 operates, the floating crud passes from the connection nozzle 8 through the suction hose 9 to the underwater vacuum cleaner 11.
will be guided along with the water. The water pressure sucked by the underwater vacuum cleaner 11 acts on the injection nozzle 7, and the jet stream injected from the injection nozzle 7 flows into the fuel channel 3.
It hits the outer surface of the body and promotes crud removal.

る。 As described above, according to the present invention, the removed crud is collected by the vacuum cleaner through the connection nozzle, so the water is not contaminated by the crud, and therefore fuel channel visual inspections can be carried out in a short time. Moreover, since the fuel channel is cladded underwater without supplying water from the outside, radiation exposure can be reduced, and the entire device can be miniaturized and the structure can be simplified.
