INSTALLATION OF VORTEX MILLING OF MIXED NUCLEAR FUEL Russian patent published in 2018 - IPC G21C21/00 

FIELD: nuclear physics and equipment.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to nuclear engineering, in particular to means for producing a homogeneous nuclear fuel from a mixture of uranium dioxide and plutonium. Installation of the vortex milling of mixed nuclear fuel contains loading boxes for containers and fuel components, a vibration mechanism with an automatic vortex mixer, an unloading box, longitudinal and transverse conveyors connecting the boxes to a closed conveyor line. Lifting mechanism of the container is mounted on the conveyor platform. Platform is mounted on rails attached to the lower platform. Lower platform is mounted on rails attached to the body of the conveyor and is connected to the carriage of the linear drive actuator. Cable car is mounted on the lower platform with an endless rope, the lower branch of which is attached to the body, and the upper branch to the platform. Weighing mechanisms are mounted in transverse conveyors. Shutter and the filter for cooling the containers are mounted in the housing of the longitudinal conveyor installed after the oscillation mechanism.

EFFECT: increased speed of moving containers in conveyors and possibility of introducing additional equipment into the installation.
