Nuclear reactor having control rod holding latch
Patent
·
OSTI ID:5853565
A nuclear reactor control rod holding latch permits rapid insertion of the control rod into a reactor core by a ratchet and pawl mechanism arranged to lock the control rod against withdrawal, this being done through a screw which by rotation permits slow withdrawal of the control rod from the core, while keeping the control rod locked against withdrawal other than through the screw action.
