[0042] The principles and features of the present utility model will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The examples given are only for explaining the present utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of the present utility model.

[0043] In the nuclear fuel assembly industry, after the fuel pellets are produced, they need to be stored and transferred through trays. Currently, the commonly used trays are of single-layer corrugated plate structure. When storing the pellets, due to the poor rigidity of the trays, deformation occurs during use, and the single-layer corrugated plate structure cannot be stacked, requiring special storage cabinets, resulting in the inability to automate the storage and transfer of the pellets. To solve the above problems, a special tray for nuclear fuel pellets and its manufacturing process are proposed.

[0044] The present utility model provides the following preferred embodiments

[0045] As Figure 1 and Figure 4 shown, a special tray for nuclear fuel pellets 40 includes a bearing tray body 10 made of stainless steel material and a reinforcing body 20 made of stainless steel material. The shapes of the bearing tray body 10 and the reinforcing body 20 are integrally formed by stamping, and the reinforcing body 20 is welded to the bottom of the bearing tray body 10. Multiple bearing tray bodies 10 can be stacked, and the bearing capacity of the bearing tray body 10 is enhanced by the reinforcing body 20 to prevent deformation. It should be noted that the bearing tray body 10 and the reinforcing body 20 can also be made of other metal materials. In other embodiments, the bearing tray body 10 and the reinforcing body 20 can also be made of non-metallic materials.

[0046] As Figure 2 shown, the bearing tray body 10 is mainly used to hold the nuclear fuel pellets 40. The bearing tray body 10 is provided with a plurality of positioning grooves 101 extending in the Y-axis direction at intervals along the X-axis direction, and the bottom of the positioning grooves 101 is in contact with a part of the reinforcing body 20. Both ends of each positioning groove 101 are through, and a stop block 102 is formed at one end of the positioning groove 101. After the nuclear fuel pellet 40 is pushed into the positioning groove 101 from the other end, the nuclear fuel pellet 40 is gradually pushed towards the stop block 102 end, and the stop block 102 blocks to prevent the frontmost nuclear fuel pellet 40 from being pushed out of the positioning groove 101; the outer side wall of the stop block 102 is in the same plane as the outer side wall of the bearing tray body 10, the inner side wall of the stop block 102 is gradually inclined from top to bottom, and the height of the stop block 102 is lower than the height of the positioning groove 101. The inner side wall of the stop block 102 is set to be inclined so that there is a certain gap between the end face of the stop block 102 and the end face of the frontmost nuclear fuel pellet 40, facilitating the pushing of the nuclear fuel pellet 40 through the gap between the two during subsequent material taking, and setting the height of the stop block 102 lower than the height of the positioning groove 101 so that when stacking, there is a space for gas flow in the positioning groove 101 at the end of the lower layer where the stop block 102 is located.

[0047] Further, in order to improve the air flow mobility between the positioning groove 101 and the nuclear fuel pellet 40, for this purpose, the opposite side walls 1011 of the positioning groove 101 gradually approach and connect from the top to the bottom to form an upper V-shaped connecting portion 1012, and the adjacent side walls 1011 of two adjacent positioning grooves 101 gradually move away from each other from the top to the bottom, and the tops of the adjacent side walls 1011 are connected to form a lower V-shaped connecting portion 1013. When loading the nuclear fuel pellet 40, the opposite side walls 1011 of the positioning groove 101 support the edge of the nuclear fuel pellet 40. Since the two side walls 1011 gradually approach and connect from the top to the bottom, a spacing is formed between the bottom of the nuclear fuel pellet 40 and the upper V-shaped connecting portion 1012. Through this setting, a ventilated and breathable spacing is formed between the positioning groove 101 and the nuclear fuel pellet 40, so as to facilitate the air flow during subsequent baking or storage.

[0048] In this embodiment, since the opposite side walls 1011 of the positioning groove 101 gradually approach from the top to the bottom, and in order to prevent the nuclear fuel pellet 40 from being overly clamped in the positioning groove 101, the contact positions of the nuclear fuel pellet 40 contact surface with the two side walls 1011 are smaller than the maximum outer diameter of the nuclear fuel pellet 40. Since the nuclear fuel pellet 40 is a cylindrical block, therefore, the contact between the nuclear fuel pellet 40 and the two side walls 1011 is an arc surface contact. When there is no external force to squeeze the two side walls 1011 into the positioning groove 101, the two side walls 1011 can well clamp the nuclear fuel pellet 40 and at the same time can well push the nuclear fuel pellet 40 to move in the positioning groove 101; furthermore, in other embodiments, the contact positions of the nuclear fuel pellet 40 contact surface with the two side walls 1011 are the maximum outer diameter of the nuclear fuel pellet 40.

[0049] Such as Figures 3 to 7As shown, the reinforcing body 20 is mainly used to reinforce the load-bearing strength of the carrier plate body 10 and prevent the carrier plate body 10 from bending or deforming. The reinforcing body 20 has a protruding portion 201 protruding towards the positioning groove 101. By providing a reinforcing body 20 with a protruding portion 201, a hollow area is formed in the middle of the reinforcing body 20, reducing the weight of the tray and avoiding the upper tray from squeezing the nuclear fuel pellets 40 in the lower layer. The protruding portion 201 is staggered in the Y-axis direction with an upper protruding portion 202 and a lower protruding portion 203 extending in the X-axis direction. The cross-section of the upper protruding portion 202 is in an inverted U shape, and the cross-section of the lower protruding portion 203 is in a U shape. The upper protruding portion 202 contacts the lower V-shaped connecting portion 1013. By staggeredly arranging the upper protruding portion 202 and the lower protruding portion 203 on the reinforcing body 20, the strength of the reinforcing body 20 is increased, and the directions of the upper protruding portion 202 and the lower protruding portion 203 are perpendicular to the direction of the positioning groove 101, which can effectively prevent the tray from bending and deforming during the loading process when the carrier plate body 10 bears the nuclear fuel pellets 40. The upper protruding portion 202 is provided with an air flow position composed of a plurality of through grooves 2021 along the X-axis, and the through grooves 2021 are located below the upper V-shaped connecting portion 1012, and the width of the through grooves 2021 is greater than or less than the width of the upper V-shaped connecting portion 1012 to facilitate the air flow during subsequent baking or storage.

[0050] Further, in order to enable the trays to be stacked on each other for easy storage or handling, for this purpose, the opposite outer sides of the carrier plate body 10 have reinforcing portions 103, and the reinforcing portions 103 are on the same plane as the top of the lower V-shaped connecting portion 1013; the reinforcing body 20 has a fixing portion 204 provided around the protruding portion 201, and the fixing portion 204 is connected to the carrier plate body 10; the reinforcing portion 103 and the fixing portion 204 are respectively provided with positioning portions 30. When the carrier plate bodies 10 are stacked, the positioning portion 30 at the lower layer of the carrier plate body 10 is inserted into the positioning portion 30 at the upper layer of the reinforcing body 20. By providing the positioning portions 30 on the carrier plate body 10 and the reinforcing body 20, when the carrier plate bodies 10 are stacked, the positioning portion 30 at the lower layer of the carrier plate body 10 is inserted into the positioning portion 30 at the upper layer of the reinforcing body 20, and multiple trays can be stacked on each other for easy storage and turnover of the trays.

[0051] Specifically, the positioning portion 30 is a hollow conical protrusion. Among them, the hollow diameter of the positioning portion 30 on the reinforcing portion 103 is slightly smaller than the hollow diameter of the positioning portion 30 on the fixing portion 204, so that the positioning portion 30 on the lower layer of the carrier plate body 10 can be inserted into the positioning portion 30 on the upper layer of the reinforcing body 20, and thus it can be avoided that when handling, the stacked trays do not move relative to each other and the problem of dropping is avoided.

[0052] As Figure 7As shown in the figure, the fixed part 204 includes a group of vertical edges 2041 disposed on opposite sides of the protruding part 201 and perpendicular to the protruding part 201, and a horizontal connecting edge 2042 connected to the group of vertical edges 2041 and in contact with the surface of the lower carrier disk body 10; welding edges 2043 are respectively formed on the horizontal connecting edge 2042 on one side of the group of vertical edges 2041, and the positioning part 30 is disposed on the horizontal connecting edge 2042 between the vertical edge 2041 and the welding edge 2043. The height of the vertical edge 2041 is greater than the height of the lower protruding part 203. The welding edge 2043 is in contact with the inner side edge of the carrier disk body 10, and the reinforcing part 103 and the carrier disk body 10 are fixed by welding. The horizontal connecting edge 2042 is provided so that when the trays are stacked, the horizontal connecting edge 2042 can be in smooth contact with the lower carrier disk body 10;

[0053] The fixed part 204 further includes a geometric positioning structure for preventing the nuclear fuel pellets 40 loaded in the lower carrier disk body 10 from exiting the positioning groove 101. The geometric positioning structure is provided with a group of inclined blocking edges 2044 adjacent to the group of vertical edges 2041 and connected to the protruding part 201 and the horizontal connecting edge 2042. The inclined blocking edges 2044 gradually incline outward along the horizontal connecting edge 2042 from the protruding part 201; handle portions 2045 are respectively formed on the horizontal connecting edge 2042 on one side of the group of inclined blocking edges 2044. The handle portions 2045 are formed with a hand-held groove and a mechanical lifting groove 2046 recessed toward the inclined blocking edges 2044, and the side wall 1011 of the carrier disk body 10 is provided with a notch that coincides with the hand-held groove and the mechanical lifting groove 2046, so as to facilitate manual or robotic handling by providing the hand-held groove and the mechanical lifting groove 2046; the height of the inclined blocking edge 2044 is greater than the height of the lower protruding part 203, and welding edges 2043 lower than the handle portions 2045 are formed on both sides of the handle portions 2045, and welding is achieved with the carrier disk body 10 through the welding edges 2043; the height of the inclined blocking edge 2044 is greater than the height of the lower protruding part 203 and is equal to the height of the vertical edge 2041. The inclined blocking edges 2044 are provided to prevent the entire end face of the nuclear fuel pellet 40 from contacting the inclined blocking edges 2044 and avoid scratching the nuclear fuel pellet 40. Through the above settings, the fixed part 204 can play a role in geometric limiting, preventing the nuclear fuel pellets 40 in the lower layer from falling from the port of the positioning groove 101 when handling or moving the trays, and playing a blocking role.

[0054] In order to be able to record the information of each tray for subsequent retrieval, information identification areas 1031 are provided on the side edges of the two reinforcing parts 103. The information identification areas 1031 include grooves provided on the side walls of the reinforcing parts 103, and two-dimensional codes are provided in the grooves. Corresponding data, such as the model, specification, weight of the tray, and the number of nuclear fuel pellets 40 stored, can be read or entered by scanning the two-dimensional code.

[0055] Preferably, in order to avoid scratching the nuclear fuel pellets 40 contained in the tray, the surface of the carrier tray body 10 is polished, that is, the surfaces of both side walls 1011, the upper V-shaped connecting portion 1012 and the lower V-shaped connecting portion 1013 are polished to make its surface mirror-like, preventing the problem that the low smoothness of the surface of the carrier tray body 10 causes scratching of the nuclear fuel pellets 40 when the nuclear fuel pellets 40 move.

[0056] In summary, the present application also provides a manufacturing process for a special tray for nuclear fuel pellets 40, and its manufacturing steps are as follows:

[0057] S1.
