The CRDM is used to lift, lower and maintain the reactor to start the reactor, adjust the reactor power, maintain power, stop the reactor and quickly shut down the reactor in the event of an accident. It is an important moving part of the nuclear reactor and one of the key equipment that directly affects the normal operation, safety and reliability of the nuclear reactor.
[0003] The control rod drive mechanisms of the "stepping magnetic lifting reactor control rod drive mechanism" (ZL200710050738.9) and the "reactor control rod drive mechanism" (ZL 201610774110.2) in the disclosed invention patents have complex structures, and the movement of the control rods rising and falling is performed in segmented non-continuous control. In the process of adjusting the control rod drive mechanism by magnetic field control, interference is easily caused between the magnetic fields, and the control rods are discontinuous during the lifting process, the control of the control rod drive mechanism is unstable, and the lifting and lowering of the control rods driven by the magnetic field consumes a lot of energy and is costly. Summary of the invention
[0004] The present invention aims to solve the deficiencies of the prior art and to provide a nuclear reactor driving mechanism. The rack-and-pinion transmission method is used to make the rack-type driving rod move more smoothly, and the internal and external gears cooperate to make the rack-type driving rod move when powered on and fall off when powered off, and the motor self-locks to make the rack-type driving rod stay at any position, thereby improving the stability and smoothness of the rack-type driving rod during movement and reducing energy consumption.
[0005] The present invention is achieved through the following technical solutions:
[0006] A nuclear reactor drive mechanism, comprising a drive assembly and a control assembly;
[0007] The driving assembly includes a motor and a driving gear arranged at the output end of the motor, a driven gear is coaxially sleeved outside the driving gear, and a gap is left between the driving gear and the driven gear; the inner and outer sides of the driven gear are provided with gears, and the outer side of the driven gear is meshed with a rack-type driving rod;
[0008] The number of teeth of the driving gear is the same as the number of teeth on the inner side of the driven gear, and the tooth gap width of the driving gear and the tooth gap width on the inner side of the driven gear are both greater than their respective tooth thicknesses;
[0009] The control assembly includes a latch and a power unit, wherein the latch is movably arranged on a side of the motor away from the driving gear, and the latch is provided with a plurality of plug rods arranged along the circumferential direction of the driving gear, wherein the plug rods are parallel to the axis of the driving gear, and the ends of the plug rods are directly opposite to the overlapped portion of the tooth groove width between the driving gear and the driven gear;
[0010] The power unit is used to drive the latch pin to move toward or away from the driving gear, and to insert the insertion rod into or out of the overlapping portion; when the insertion rod is inserted into the overlapping portion, it is used to drive the driving gear and the driven gear to rotate synchronously.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the movement of the control rod rising and falling is performed as segmented discontinuous control. In the process of adjusting the control rod driving mechanism by magnetic field control, interference is easily caused between magnetic fields, and the control rod is discontinuous during the lifting process, the control of the control rod driving mechanism is unstable, and the lifting and lowering of the control rod by magnetic field driving consumes a lot of energy and has high cost. The present invention provides a nuclear reactor driving mechanism, which includes a driving component, the driving component includes a motor, and the motor is used to drive the driving gear to rotate. Since a driven gear is coaxially arranged outside the driving gear, and a gap is left between the outer side of the driving gear and the inner side of the driven gear, it is preferred that the tooth top circle of the driving gear is tangent to the inner tooth top circle of the driven gear. Therefore, in the process of the motor driving the driving gear to rotate, the driven gear is still in a stationary state, and the rotation of the driving gear cannot drive the driven gear to rotate synchronously; and in order to drive the driven gear to rotate, a control component is also provided, and the control component includes a movable latch, which can move along the axis of the driving gear and rotate around its own axis; a plurality of plungers are evenly distributed on the circumference of the latch; since the teeth of the driving gear The number of teeth on the inner side of the driven gear is the same as that on the inner side of the driven gear, and the tooth width of the driving gear and the tooth width on the inner side of the driven gear are both greater than their respective tooth thicknesses. Therefore, when the driven gear is at any position relative to the driving gear, the tooth width inside the driven gear and the tooth width of the driving gear have an overlapping portion, that is, a connecting portion. Therefore, the power unit can drive the insertion rod to be inserted into the overlapping portion, so that the driving gear and the driven gear are relatively fixed. When the driving gear rotates, it can simultaneously drive the latch pin and the driven gear to rotate synchronously, thereby driving the rack-type driving rod to move up and down through the driven gear; wherein the rack-type driving rod The rod is a driving rod with a rack on the side; in normal operation, the rack-type driving rod can be controlled to rise or fall by controlling the forward and reverse rotation of the driving gear; if the rack-type driving rod is to stay at a certain position, the driving gear can be controlled to be stationary by the motor; and when the power unit drives the pin to withdraw from the overlapping part and the motor has no power, the driving gear stops rotating, and the rack-type driving rod moves downward under its own gravity, and in the process of moving, it also drives the driven gear meshing with it to rotate, and blocks the nuclear reaction, thereby ensuring the safety of the nuclear reaction.

[0045] Embodiment 2:
[0046] This embodiment 2 is further optimized on the basis of embodiment 1, and also provides a driving method for a nuclear reactor, using a nuclear reactor driving mechanism, step A, the driving gear 9 and the driven gear 10 are fixed, the electromagnet 7 is connected to the power supply, the plug 5 is axially close to the driving gear 9 along the connecting rod 4, and the end of the plug 13 is inserted into the overlapping part of the tooth groove width inside the driven gear 10 and the tooth groove width of the driving gear 9; step B, the rack-type driving rod 11 is raised, the motor 6 is connected to the power supply, and the driving gear 9 is rotated clockwise, and the driven gear 10 is driven. Rotate clockwise, and the rack drive rod 11 rises driven by the driven gear 10; step C, the rack drive rod 11 descends, adjusts the current direction of the connected motor 6, and makes the drive gear 9 rotate counterclockwise, and drives the driven gear 10 to rotate counterclockwise, and the rack drive rod 11 descends driven by the driven gear 10; step D, the rack drive rod 11 is fixed, and the power supply connected to the motor 6 is disconnected. At this time, the electromagnet 7 is still connected to the power supply. When the motor 6 is in a self-locking state, the drive gear 9 is stationary, and the rack drive rod 11 is stopped at an arbitrary position.
[0047] In actual use, in order to facilitate the adjustment and control of the stability and smoothness of the rack-type driving rod 11, in a static state, the electromagnet 7 is not connected to the power supply, and no magnetic field is generated, and the spring 8 is in the original length state, and the latch 5 is spaced apart from the driving gear 9. When the electromagnet 7 is connected to the power supply, the electromagnet 7 generates a magnetic field and exerts a downward adsorption force on the latch 5. At this time, the latch 5 moves along the axis direction of the connecting rod 4 close to the electromagnet 7, and at the same time, the spring 8 is subjected to the pressure of the latch 5. At this time, the spring 8 is in a compressed state and tends to restore its original length. The plug 13 arranged in the latch 5 The end is inserted into the overlapping part of the tooth width inside the driven gear 10 and the tooth width of the driving gear 9, so that the driven gear 10 and the driving gear 9 are linked. When the motor 6 is connected to the power supply, the driving gear 9 starts to rotate under the action of the motor 6. At this time, the driven gear 10 starts to rotate in the same direction as the driven gear 10 under the transmission of the driving gear 9. At the same time, the pin 5 also rotates with the driving gear 9. At the same time, the gear teeth arranged outside the driven gear 10 are engaged with the rack-type driving rod 11, and drive the rack-type driving rod 11 to move up and down. At the same time, the rack-type driving rod 11 can be controlled to rise or fall by adjusting the rotation direction of the motor 6.
[0048] When the power supply connected to the electromagnet 7 and the power supply connected to the motor 6 are disconnected at the same time, the spring 8 tends to restore its original length under the action of its own elastic force, and applies a thrust to the latch 5 away from the driving gear 9, so that the insertion rod 13 is pulled out from the overlapping part of the tooth groove width inside the driven gear 10 and the tooth groove width of the driving gear 9, and moves in the direction away from the electromagnet 7. The spring 8 restores its original length. At this time, the linkage relationship between the two gears is eliminated, and there is a gap between the driven gear 10 and the driving gear 9. At the same time, the driving gear 9 stops rotating, and the rack-type driving rod 11 moves downward under the action of its own gravity, and in the process of moving, it also drives the driven gear 10 meshing with it to rotate, and blocks the nuclear reaction, thereby ensuring the safety of the nuclear reaction.
[0049] When it is necessary to stop the rack drive rod 11 at any position, the motor 6 and the electromagnet 7 are connected to the power supply at the same time, and the end of the rod 13 is inserted into the overlapping part of the tooth width inside the driven gear 10 and the tooth width of the driving gear 9. The driving gear 9 rotates under the drive of the motor 6, and the driven gear 10 rotates under the transmission action of the driving gear 9, and the rotation directions of the driven gear 10 and the driving gear 9 are consistent. The latch 5 also rotates in the same direction as the driving gear 9, and the rack drive rod 11 rises or falls under the drive of the driven gear 10. When the power supply connected to the motor 6 is disconnected, the motor 6 stops running, and the self-locking of the motor 6 is used to make the rack drive rod 11 stay at any position, and the driving gear 9 stops rotating. The end of the rod 13 is still located at the overlapping part of the tooth width inside the driven gear 10 and the tooth width of the driving gear 9, and the driven gear 10 stops rotating. At this time, the rack drive rod 11 is stationary relative to the driven gear 10, and it is easy to adjust and control the position of the rack drive rod 11.
[0050] When there is a power outage or other factors that prevent normal power supply, no current will pass through the motor 6 and the electromagnet 7, and they will stop running. At the same time, the electromagnet 7 will not generate a magnetic field. The compressed spring 8 will restore its original length under the action of its own elastic force, and apply a thrust to the latch 5 away from the driving gear 9, and pull the plug 13 out of the overlapping part of the tooth groove width inside the driven gear 10 and the tooth groove width of the driving gear 9, so that the linkage relationship between the two gears is eliminated, and the driving gear 9 fixedly connected to the motor 6 stops rotating. At this time, the rack-type driving rod 11 falls vertically under the action of its own gravity, and at the same time drives the driven gear 10 meshing with it to rotate, and blocks the nuclear reaction, stops the nuclear reaction, and ensures the safety of the nuclear reaction.
