SEALING CRACKS IN NUCLEAR POWER PLANT POOL Russian patent published in 2017 - IPC B23P6/04 B25J5/00 B25J13/00 G21C17/03 

FIELD: construction.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to sealing cracks in the wall of a nuclear power plant pool, namely to a method of sealing a seam and to a mobile robot equipped with an adhesive tape juggie, which comprises a head pressing the adhesive tape to the wall. To seal a seam controlled are multiple suction systems of the robot containing suction cups, herewith the said multiple suction systems comprises the first suction system and at least the second suction system. Herewith the juggie is mechanically integrated with the first suction system made able to move relative to the second suction system in order to regulate positions of the juggie head and the adhesive tape, which is applied on the seam. Controlled is the movement of the first suction system relative to the second suction system. Herewith the adhesive tape of the juggie is applied on the seam during movement of the first suction system relative to the second suction system.

EFFECT: invention allows sticking the tape in hard-to-reach places, at sharp edges and at herewith on extended sections.
