A socket for an integrated circuit has a shielding housing that is open on one side facing the circuit board, with a frame and a cover to accommodate the integrated circuit and a socket insert, with the cover being openable to remove the integrated circuit. For better heat dissipation, the cover may be designed as a heat sink provided with cooling ribs and optionally supplemented by a heat sink on the opposite side of the circuit board.

A mounting arrangement for an axial fan, wherein the axial fan is used for moving air through a cabinet or enclosure for heat generating electrical components. The axial fan is housed in a cylindrical housing having a flange and air inlet at one end and a flange and air outlet at the other end. The mounting arrangement also includes a support having a base with an air opening and two parallel walls. The parallel walls including catches for attaching the housing to the support. The support is mounted in an enclosure or formed as an integral part of the enclosure.

An ejection and grounding system for rack-mounted plug-in modules includes an angle lever which bears against a frame element to extract a module mounted in a rack. The frame element contains a buss bar for grounding the modules. A bracket is attached to the module and grounds the module to the buss via an electrically conductive tang; the bracket also supports the angle lever so that it rotates parallel to the module.

A reactor has a core formed by a plurality of laterally adjacent fuel assemblies, each assembly comprising a vertically elongated casing containing a bundle of fuel rods and having an upper end connected to a tubular suspension rod forming the primary suspension means for the casing, failure of this means permitting the fuel assembly to drop from the core. In each instance, an instrumentation tube having an upper end supported independently of the primary suspension rod, extends downwardly through the latter, and centrally through the casing to the lower end of the latter. This instrumentation tube and the fuel assemblies adjacent to each other remain suspended so as to form vertically fixed parts relative to any one assembly that might drop accidentally. Each of the casings have latch means for normally latching the casing to one of these fixed parts so as to each casing it cannot fall substantially relative to that one of the parts in the event of a failure of its tubular suspension rod normally forming its primary suspension.
