Abstract

Nuclear fuel element carrying apparatus for loading and unloading fuel elements by inserting and removing them from vertical fuel channels from below the stack, including said carrier; a tank rotatable about a vertical axis and provided with supports for fuel rods distributed in circles around said vertical axis; means for rotating the tank step by step so that each fuel support can by turbo located in vertical alignment with the same fuel channel; and means for moving fuel elements between the carrier and the fuel channel and the carrier.
