Abstract
A nuclear fuel rod end distance adjusting device includes an insertion rod, a housing having a hollow space, insertion power means installed inside the housing, a connector connected between the insertion power means and the insertion rod, and an anti-rotation tool installed between the insertion power means and the connector. The insertion rod includes nuclear fuel rod tongs and configured to linearly move forward and backward. The insertion power means is configured to move in a longitudinal direction of the housing by converting a rotational motion into a linear motion. The anti-rotation tool is configured to move in the longitudinal direction of the housing by being interlocked with the linear motion of the insertion power means, but preventing rotational force of the insertion power means from being transmitted to the connector. Thereby, movement and end distance of the fuel rods can be more minutely and stably adjusted.
