Replacement Spacer Pin With Locking Keys

US Patent:
5259010, Nov 2, 1993
Filed:
Sep 30, 1991
Appl. No.:
7/767582
Inventors:
Steve K. Brown - Lynchburg VA
Larry D. Dixon - Forest VA
John A. Orr - Lynchburg VA
Assignee:
B&W Nuclear Service Company - Lynchburg VA
International Classification:
G21C 332
US Classification:
376446
Abstract:
The spacer pin of this invention is preferably threadably secured to a thermal shield normally found within reactor vessels. It comprises a main body having a cavity therein which houses a locking assembly that alternately engages or disengages the threads of the thermal shield as desired. Ideally, as bolt means are is rotated within the main body, locking keys are either moved into engagement with the threads of the thermal shield or the locking keys are removed from such engagement with the thermal shield. In this fashion, the spacer pin may be locked onto or unlocked from the thermal shield as desired. A locking cap prevents the bolt means from coming unthreaded during use and also insures that the spacer pin remains secured to the thermal shield.
