<p>The invention relates to a storage rack (1) for nuclear fuel assemblies, including a rigid structure (2) defining a plurality of adjacent cells (4) and including, in each cell, a sleeve (16) defining a cavity (18) for receiving a nuclear fuel assembly, the sleeve having, in a cross-section orthogonal to the longitudinal direction, a polygonal general form, the sides of which are provided by means of plates (30) made of neutron-absorbing material. According to the invention, the sleeve also comprises: - profiles (22), each forming a corner piece and arranged on at least a plurality of angles for said cross-section having a polygonal general form, said profiles acting as a mounting bracket for the plates made of neutron-absorbing material; and - a means (36) for maintaining the profiles therebetween.</p> |
