IRRADIATED TARGET PROCESSING SYSTEM Russian patent published in 2019 - IPC G21G1/02 

FIELD: physics.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to a system for processing irradiated targets. Irradiated targets (16) are introduced into test equipment tube (14) in core (10) of the nuclear reactor and are extracted therefrom, the system comprising: target extraction system (38), which comprises output channel (40) of targets, made for connection with container (42) for storing targets and with outlet system (44), target introduction system (46), which comprises target setting device (84), target holding pipe (86) and target deflection device (88), connected to target attachment device (84), targets holding pipe (86) and system (38) extraction of targets. Besides, there is a target feeding unit (96) on target holding pipe (86), wherein the target feed assembly is made for connection to instrumentation pipe (14), and conveying gas supply system (48), which comprises first gas supply pipe (102), second gas supply pipe (104) and transport gas supply assembly (106) connected to first and second gas feed pipes (102, 104), wherein first pipe (102) of gas supply is connected to target channel (40) of target extraction system (38), and second gas feed pipe (104) is made for connection with gas feed assembly (108) to test instrumentation tube (14).

EFFECT: technical result is possibility of selecting and replacing pipes of instrumentation, which eliminates need for constant installation of radionuclide production system.
