1430348 Controlling nuclear reactors INTERATOM, INTERNATIONALE ATOMREAKTORBAU GmbH 20 Feb 1974 [23 Feb 1973] 7804/74 Heading G6C A nuclear reactor control device comprises a number of spiders from the underside of each of which a group of parallel control rods extends, and an equal number of drives, one associated with each spider. In one example, spiders 1-5 are arranged with their semi-circular arms interleaving so that the rods of any given spider are fairly widely distributed over the core crosssection. The separate drives enable independent movement of each spider.
