20100259135 | SUBMERSIBLE ELECTRIC MOTOR ASSEMBLY - According to an embodiment, a submersible electric motor assembly has: a casing; an electric motor that is accommodated in the casing; and an electric insulating substance that is filled between the electric motor and the casing and has a thermal conductivity higher than that of air. The electric motor includes: a stator, a rotor that is rotated by an interaction with a magnetic field of the stator, a coil that magnetizes the stator and/or the rotor, and a shaft that is rotated by rotation of the rotor. | 10-14-2010 |
20110024402 | LASER WELDING APPRATUS AND LASER WELDING METHOD - According to one embodiment, a laser welding apparatus has a laser irradiation head that is arranged in an outer frame and is divided inside into a light source side and an irradiation side by a partitioning member. The apparatus also has a gas jet nozzle that is formed so as to irradiate a portion to be welded with the laser light and jet the inert gas to the portion to be welded; and a welding wire feed pipe that sequentially feeds a welding wire. The apparatus also has a welding wire contact mechanism that includes a measuring means for measuring a distance between the extremity of the irradiation side and the extremity of the welding wire, and is formed so that the extremity of the welding wire is brought into contact with and pressed against the portion to be welded by an elastic member. | 02-03-2011 |
20120243649 | IN-REACTOR WORK SYSTEM AND IN-REACTOR WORK METHOD - According to an embodiment, an in-reactor operation system which is provided with a crack detection vehicle that moves in a circumferential direction along an outer surface of a shroud disposed in a reactor pressure vessel with the axis vertical, an inspection/check sensor that is mounted on the crack detection vehicle and performs an operation with respect to the shroud, a vehicle positioning mast for setting an initial position of the crack detection vehicle on the shroud, a vehicle fixation mechanism for attaching and detaching the crack detection vehicle to and from the vehicle positioning mast, and a conveyance vehicle for conveying the vehicle positioning mast on which the crack detection vehicle is mounted into the reactor pressure vessel. | 09-27-2012 |
20120269311 | IN-REACTOR PIPING WORK DEVICE AND IN-REACTOR PIPING WORK METHOD - According to an embodiment, a horizontally moving stage is mounted on a cylindrical structure within a reactor pressure vessel, travels horizontally along the surface of the cylindrical structure by wheels, and is positioned above an in-reactor pipe by the operation of the horizontally moving stage. A hollow mast is carried by the horizontally moving stage, and is expandable and contractible in a vertical attitude. When the mast is in the vertical attitude, a probe is movable within the mast and performs work in the proximity to the inner surface of the in-reactor pipe. A cable passes through the mast to be connected to the probe. | 10-25-2012 |

20080264451 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR PROCESSING INSIDE OF PIPE - An apparatus for processing an inside of a pipe which performs various works from an inside of a pipe, includes traveling drive units, a working device, rotation support mechanisms, a coupling mechanism, and suspension devices. The traveling drive units are inserted into the inside of the pipe, and the working device is moved in a circumferential direction along the inside of the pipe by the traveling drive units. | 10-30-2008 |
20100205770 | CLEANING APPARATUS - A cleaning apparatus is generally composed of a suction unit provided with a suction source, a suction nozzle equipped with a suction port adapted to suck dust or like from a surface to be cleaned, a suction hose connected at one end to the suction nozzle and connected at another end to the suction unit, a low-center-of-gravity support member provided for the suction hose so as to serve as a fulcrum when the suction hose is bent and deformed, a wire member supported at a distal end by the suction nozzle and arranged along the suction hose, and a control unit used to bend and deform the suction hose by manipulating the wire member with the low-center-of-gravity support member serving as a fulcrum. This cleaning apparatus is specifically usable for a bottom surface of a reactor pressure vessel. | 08-19-2010 |
