Floating nuclear reactor

A floating nuclear reactor, comprising:

• a tank having water therein with the tank including;
• (a) a bottom wall having a first end, a second end, a first side and a second side;
• (b) a first end wall, having a first side, a second side, a lower end and an upper end, extending upwardly from said first end of said bottom wall;
• (c) a second end wall, having a first side, a second side, a lower end and an upper end, extending upwardly from said second end of said bottom wall;
• (d) a first side wall, having a first end, a second end, a lower end and an upper end, extending between said first ends of said first and second end walls;
• (e) a second side wall, having a first end, a second end, a lower end and an upper end, extending between said second ends of said first and second end walls;
• each of said first end wall, said second end wall, said first side wall and said second side wall of said tank having inner and outer sides;
• a barge, having a first end, a second end, a first side and a second side, floatably positioned in said tank;
• a nuclear reactor positioned on said barge;
• a plurality of counter weight assemblies operatively connected to said tank and said barge which are configured to provide a lifting force on said barge;
• each of said counter weight assemblies including:
• (a) an elongated and vertically disposed first bracket secured to a first wall of said tank;
• (b) an elongated and vertically disposed second bracket secured to the first wall of said tank so as to be horizontally spaced from said first bracket;
• (c) an elongated and vertically disposed first channel, having upper and lower ends, secured to said first bracket so as to be spaced from said first wall;
• (d) an elongated and vertically disposed second channel, having upper and lower ends, secured to said second bracket so as to be spaced from said first wall;
• (e) a flat and rectangular counter weight having an upper end, a lower end, a first side, a second side, an outer side and an inner side;
• (f) said counter weight positioned between said first and second channels with said first side of said counter weight being vertically slidably received in said first channel and with said second side of said counter weight being vertically slidably received in said second channel;
• (g) a pulley rotatably secured to said tank, about a horizontal axis, between said upper ends of said first and second channels;
• (h) an elongated and flexible cable having first and second ends;
• (i) said first end of said cable being secured to said barge;
• and
• (j) said cable extending from said barge over said pulley on said tank and thence downwardly therefrom for connection to said counter weight.
