ABSTRACT:
A mechanism for automatically releasing the control bars in a nuclear reactor following an increase of the temperature in the nuclear boiler includes a thermal sensor suitable for producing a mechanical force or a torque as a function of the temperature and such as to operate a mechanical actuator which provides to unlock the device that holds said control bars causing in this way their fall under the force of gravity.
