David L. Rousar - San Jose CA
Assignee:
General Electric Company - San Jose CA
International Classification:
G21C 1708
US Classification:

Hydraulic Crimper And Bolt Assembly

View page
US Patent:
57091161, Jan 20, 1998
Filed:
Feb 29, 1996
Appl. No.:
8/608637
Inventors:
Frank W. Rieger - Pittsburgh PA
David Lee Rousar - San Jose CA
Assignee:
General Electric Company - Schenectady NY
International Classification:
B21D 2602
B21D 3920
US Classification:
72 57
Abstract:
A bolt and keeper assembly including a crimper for crimping a portion of the keeper into pockets formed in an upper portion of the bolt head are described. The crimper includes a hydraulic cylinder for carrying hydraulic fluid under pressure and a crimper body having a bore extending therethrough. The bore has first and second end portions and an intermediate portion extending between the first and second end portions. The first end portion of the crimper body bore is configured to receive an end portion of the hydraulic cylinder, and the second portion of the crimper body bore is configured to receive at a least a portion of the bolt head and keeper assembly. When assembled, an upper portion of the bolt head and keeper assembly extends into the intermediate bore portion. A compressible ring is positioned in the intermediate portion of the crimper body bore at a location to engage the keeper and for crimping sections of the keeper into the bolt head pockets.

Downcommer Coupling Apparatus And Methods

View page
US Patent:
62367005, May 22, 2001
Filed:
Feb 18, 1999
Appl. No.:
9/252699
Inventors:
John G. Erbes - Mt. View CA
David L. Rousar - San Jose CA
Michael R. Schrag - San Jose CA
Assignee:
General Electric Company - Schenectady NY
International Classification:
G21C 1900
F16L 5500
US Classification:
376260
Abstract:
Downcommer coupling apparatus and methods for replacing a core spray line downcommer pipe coupled to a shroud T-box are described. In one embodiment, the coupling apparatus includes a wedge flange, a wedge, a wedge housing, a pipe seal, a cylindrical pipe, an elbow, a lower flange, and a shroud seal. The downcommer pipe is connected to the coupling apparatus by extending the pipe through the wedge flange, the wedge, and the wedge housing. The wedge has a plurality of flexible thinned segments that extend into the wedge housing to secure the downcommer pipe to the wedge housing. Wedge flange bolts extend through the wedge flange, the wedge, and the wedge housing to rigidly secure the downcommer pipe to the coupling apparatus. Dowel bolts extend through the wedge housing and the downcommer pipe to provide vertical and torsional load transfer from the downcommer pipe to the coupling apparatus. The lower flange is configured to receive the shroud T-box.

Cylindrical Refueling Mast With Longitudinal Guide Grooves

View page
US Patent:
50842315, Jan 28, 1992
Filed:
Jul 31, 1989
Appl. No.:
7/388175
Inventors:
Robert C. Dixon - Morgan Hill CA
James R. Punches - San Jose CA
David L. Rousar - San Jose CA
David L. Faulstich - San Jose CA
Assignee:
General Electric Company - San Jose CA
International Classification:
G21C 1916
US Classification:
376271
Abstract:
A refueling mast for a reactor complex includes four generally cylindrical tubes. Each inner tube has vertical grooved tracks formed therein. Each outer tube has a guide roller mounted thereon with grooves which mate with track grooves of a respective track on the adjacent inner tube. Track grooves are cold formed moving a roller die tool up and down each inner tube, while increasing pressure on the incorporated die rollers. This process flattens the inner tube where the tracks are being formed. The grooved tracks and the associated flattening provide the torsional rigidity required on the mast tubes for precise positioning and orientation of fuel elements.
