Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of nuclear radiation protection, and in particular to a flaw detection shielding structure between the voltage regulators of a nuclear power unit. Background Technology

[0002] During the overhaul of the HPR (Hualong One) nuclear power unit, active radiographic testing (ART) is required at the welded joints of the pressurizer and some pipelines to check the safety and reliability of the welds. Therefore, an ART workshop was designed around the nuclear power unit. This workshop needs one side facing the pressurizer and some pipelines, and the other side facing the nuclear power unit. Due to nuclear safety regulations, the side facing the nuclear power unit needs to maintain a certain opening to prevent pressure relief channels in the event of a nuclear accident. However, the high intensity of the radioactive source used for ART could affect the radioactivity levels of other work areas during the ART process. This would force personnel to carry out other work while ART is being conducted, significantly extending the overhaul period. Furthermore, the ART workshop lacks a shielding device or structure that complies with nuclear safety regulations. Utility Model Content

[0026] Figures 1 to 2 Some preferred embodiments of the flaw detection shielding structure between the pressurizers of a nuclear power unit are shown. This flaw detection shielding structure between the pressurizers of a nuclear power unit can be used for radiation shielding inside a nuclear power plant.

[0027] Figures 1 to 6 This invention illustrates a flaw detection shielding structure between voltage regulators in a nuclear power plant, which can be used for radiation shielding within a nuclear power plant. The structure includes an upper shielding component 200 and a lower shielding component 300. The upper shielding component 200 includes a first shielding unit and a fixing unit 230. The fixing unit 230 is disposed above and on the left and right sides of the first shielding unit, and the first shielding unit is installed above the opening of the work area 100 via the fixing unit 230. The lower shielding component 300 includes a second shielding unit and a frame 310. The frame 310 is disposed below the opening of the work area 100. The second shielding unit includes several shielding modules 320, which are laid on the frame 310. The first and second shielding units are not connected to each other, and the shielding areas of the first and second shielding units partially overlap, completely covering the opening. By installing a first shielding unit above the opening of the work area 100 to block upper radiation and a second shielding unit below the opening to block lower radiation, the overlapping area of ​​the first and second shielding units completely covers and shields the opening of the work area 100, thus completely blocking radiation. Furthermore, the first and second shielding units are not connected to each other, leaving a large gap to serve as a pressure relief vent in the event of a nuclear power unit accident, complying with nuclear power safety regulations. Moreover, the upper shielding assembly 200 and lower shielding assembly 300 have simple structures and are quick to install, greatly reducing construction time and improving the efficiency of nuclear power unit overhauls.

[0028] Understandably, since the upper shielding component 200 and the lower shielding component 300 need to shield against strong radiation, they require a thicker radiation shielding layer for protection. Therefore, they are divided into the upper shielding component 200 and the lower shielding component 300 to reduce weight. The lower shielding component 300 is divided into several shielding modules 320 for easy installation.

[0029] In one specific embodiment, the weight of a single shielding module 320 is less than 30kg, which is beneficial for users to carry and install without the need for other handling equipment.

[0030] In one specific embodiment, the shielding area of ​​the lower shielding component 300 is greater than or equal to the shielding area of ​​the upper shielding component 200.

[0031] In one specific embodiment, the overlapping area of ​​the lower shielding component 300 and the upper shielding component 200 is greater than or equal to 10% of the total opening area.

[0032] In one specific embodiment, the distance between the lower shielding component 300 and the upper shielding component 200 needs to be designed based on the actual shielding area and the area of ​​overlapping shielding.

[0033] Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 The first shielding unit is shown to include an upper shielding body 210 and a lower shielding body 220 in one embodiment. Because a single shielding unit is too heavy to install, it needs to be installed in two parts to reduce the difficulty of construction.

[0034] Figure 5 and Figure 6 The shielding module 320, as shown in one embodiment, may include a shielding plate made of shielding material and an outer packaging layer. When the shielding module 320 is mounted on the frame 310, the shielding plates overlap each other without gaps. The shielding plates overlap at their edges, with one layer overlapping the edge of another to avoid gaps between the shielding plates, which would allow radiation to leak out through these gaps.

[0035] Figure 5 and Figure 6 The second shielding unit, as shown in one embodiment, may be rectangular in shape, with upwardly extending branches 321 on both sides extending to the top of the work area 100. Because the first shielding unit is located at the opening, the connection between the first shielding unit and the wall is the thinnest, making it prone to radiation leakage due to insufficient shielding thickness. Therefore, the second shielding unit has upwardly extending branches 321 on both sides, which increase the blocking area, shielding the first shielding unit at the wall and increasing the shielding thickness.

[0036] Figure 4 The fixing unit 230 is shown in one embodiment to include a plurality of fixing seats 231 and a plurality of fixing members 232. The fixing seats 231 are 90-degree angle bracket structures, and the fixing members 232 pass through the fixing seats 231 and are fixed in the wall.

[0037] In one specific embodiment, the fixing base 231 can also be in other forms, such as a slot.

[0038] Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 The clamping unit 300 is shown in one embodiment as including an upper shield 210 whose upper part and sides are respectively connected to the fixing base 231 and fixed to the upper part of the work chamber 100 by fixing members 232, and a lower shield 220 disposed below the upper shield 210, with both sides of the lower shield 220 connected to the fixing base.

[0039] Figures 1 to 2 The diagram shows that in one embodiment, the workspace 100 may include a workspace 100 with a total width greater than the width of a first shielding unit, a first shielding unit with a width greater than the opening width of the workspace 100, a workspace 100 with a height greater than the height of the top of the first shielding unit, and a first shielding unit with a height greater than the opening height of the workspace 100. The first shielding unit can completely cover the area above the opening.

[0040] Figure 4 The first shielding unit is shown in one embodiment to include a protrusion 240 on the first shielding unit. The protrusion 240 is hollow inside and has an opening facing the first shielding unit.

[0041] Figure 1 and Figure 2 The illustration shows a first shielding unit and a second shielding unit. In one embodiment, the first shielding unit and the second shielding unit may be made of lead plate as the radiation shielding material. Lead is currently the most commonly used material for shielding radiation and can effectively shield radiation.

[0042] In one specific embodiment, the first and second shielding units are made of lead plates, the thickness of which is determined according to actual design requirements and nuclear power safety regulations.

[0043] In one specific embodiment, the lead plate thickness of the shielding module 320 is 10-20mm.

[0044] In the embodiments of this application, the thickness of the shielding module 320 is preferably 13 mm.

[0045] Figure 1The clamping unit 300 is shown in one embodiment to include a first shielding unit mounted on the exterior 100 of the work area 100 near the nuclear power unit. Installation on the exterior 100 of the work area facilitates the handling and construction of the first unit, reducing construction time and improving efficiency.

[0046] It is understood that the above embodiments only illustrate preferred embodiments of the present utility model, and their descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present utility model patent. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, the above technical features can be freely combined, and several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the present utility model, all of which fall within the protection scope of the present utility model. Therefore, all equivalent transformations and modifications made within the scope of the claims of the present utility model should fall within the coverage of the claims of the present utility model.
