| description | The present invention relates to reinforcing apparatus for a weld seam and particularly relates to a compact, remotely installable weld reinforcement device for maintaining structural integrity of welded members in the event of weld failure, for example, in a nuclear reactor.
The weld reinforcement includes a generally dogbone-shaped pocket having laterally enlarged end portions and a reduced intermediate portion spanning a weld seam. A complementary-shaped reinforcing element is received in the pocket. The pocket includes a projection which is received in an opening in the overlying reinforcing element. A wedge-type clamp retainer is received about the projection within the opening to secure the element within the pocket. |
