Abstract

A device for guiding a control cluster consisting of several absorbing rods consisting of a casing in which are mounted continuous-guiding sleeves each provided with at least one cylindrical slide suitable for the vertical guiding of a rod, and each open with a vertical slot emerging in the slide. Each guiding slide (631, 641) is associated with two orifices (635, 645) forming a hollow in the two lips (633, 643) of the slot (632, 642) so that, when a rod (31) is in contact with the lips, the interior of the slide communicates with the slot.
