AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In existing technologies, the required drop height and levelness of the sealing cover after contact with the sealing ring are high, which leads to strict requirements for equipment manufacturing and installation. At the same time, the support seat is prone to fatigue damage, resulting in sealing leakage problems.

Method used

The system employs a combination of a sealing tube and a buffer tube. The sealing tube abuts against the sealing cover plate, while the buffer tube connects to the drain pipe. Sealing is achieved through the deformation of the buffer tube, preventing fatigue damage to the support plate. Fixed seats and clips are used for fixation to ensure airtightness.

Benefits of technology

Meeting the height and level requirements of the sealing cover prevents leakage and improves the sealing performance and service life of the equipment.

[0063] The sealing storage system 220 described above, one end of the sealing pipe 110 abuts against the sealing cover plate 211 of the radioactive article storage container 210, and communicates with the drain hole 212 on the sealing cover plate 211, and the other end of the sealing pipe 110 communicates with one end of the buffer pipe 120. The end of the buffer pipe 120 away from the sealing pipe 110 is connected with one end of the drain pipe 130, and the connection between the drain pipe 130 and the buffer pipe 120 is provided in the through hole 214 of the inner member 213 of the container body of the radioactive article storage container 210. The drain pipe 130 is located on the side of the inner member 213 away from the sealing cover plate 211, and the end of the drain pipe 130 away from the buffer pipe 120 is provided with a drain port 131. Thus, after the sealing pipe 110 abuts against the sealing cover plate 211, the sealing cover plate 211 is tightly abutted against the sealing pipe 110 by the deformation of the buffer pipe 120 connected with the sealing pipe 110, and the sealing pipe 110 is communicated with the drain hole 212 on the sealing cover plate 211, and the connection between the drain pipe 130 and the buffer pipe 120 is provided in the through hole 214 of the inner member 213 of the container body of the radioactive article storage container 210, so that the drain pipe 130 is located on the side of the inner member 213 away from the sealing cover plate 211, and the gas or liquid in the radioactive article storage container 210 is discharged through the drain port 131 provided at the end of the drain pipe 130 away from the buffer pipe 120, so that the above technical solution meets the requirements of the descending height and the high levelness of the sealing cover plate 211, and avoids the fatigue and damage of the supporting plate under long-term force, which causes the sealing leakage problem of the connection between the upper segment and the lower segment.

[0064] The technical features of the above-described embodiments can be combined in any manner. To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-described embodiments are described, but as long as the combinations of the technical features do not contradict, they should be considered within the scope of the present disclosure.

[0065] The above-described embodiments only express several implementation manners of the present application, and the description is more specific and detailed, but it should not be understood as a limitation on the patent scope of the application. It should be noted that for ordinary skilled persons in the art, without departing from the concept of the present application, a number of modifications and improvements can be made, which are within the scope of the present application. Therefore, the patent protection scope of the present application should be subject to the appended claims.
