ABSTRACT:
A spacer grid spring (6) consists of a single metal leaf including two end parts (6a, 6b) substantially in the same plane and a central part (6c) out of the plane of the end parts (6a, 6b). At least one of the end parts (6a, 6b) is laterally provided with two flanges (6d, 6e) folded out of the plane of the end part (6a, 6b), in the opposite direction from the central part (6c) of the spring (6). The call wall (5) intended to receive the spring (6) includes, in an arrangement adjacent to each of two dimples (7a, 7b) placed at the ends of the wall (5), a part (8a,8b) for holding an end (6a, 6b) of the spring, and an opening (10a, 10b) passing through the wall (5) adjacent to the holding part (8a, 8b).
