Patent
·
OSTI ID:7310604
Racks for storing spent nuclear fuel elements in a spent fuel storage pool are placed in the pool one above the other. Guide pins and guide pin receptacles mate for the alignment of the racks one above the other. A frame-like support removably holds the racks one above the other. Interengaging members between the racks and the frame-like support retain the racks in position relative to the frame-like support. 6 claims, 9 figures.
