ABSTRACT:
A fast neutron nuclear reactor having a vessel filled with liquid metal and sealed in its upper part by a box slab having a central opening in which is placed a plug-cover-core overhanging the core of the reactor. The central opening is surmounted by a cell containing the handling and storage mechanism for the plug-cover-core and a mechanism for handling the assemblies. The latter can be moved on annular rails and can be collapsed against the wall of the cell, in order to permit the manipulation of the plug-cover-core. A radial passage connects the cell to a transfer station.
