ABSTRACT:
A nuclear reactor having a remotely removable and replaceable thermal insulating shield for the head. Access permitting removal and replacement of the head is thus afforded.
The thermal insulating shield includes a vertical frame of insulating material of polygonal transverse cross section encircling the head. A top panel of insulating material is mounted on the top of the frame pivotal by remote actuation between a horizontal position and a retracted position which may be vertical. In the horizontal position, the panels mate to provide thermal shielding for the head.
