FIELD: astronautics.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to space engineering, in particular to instruments and appliances used by an astronaut in the process of extravehicular activity, as well as in ground conditions by an operator in ordinary clothes for a wide range of objects. Device for sampling by an astronaut in a space suit from outer surface of hermetically sealed space object comprises a body from chemically, thermally, mechanically stable and γ-permeable material, in housing there is at least one blind cavity with multi-start thread and conical surface at inlet, into chamber is screwed a sampler with mating conical surface, which provides, during wrapping, cavity sealing at contact of conical surfaces, at that, the housing is equipped with a metal plate, in the housing there is at least one blind cavity with multithread thread and conical surfaces at the input, into which a plug with a mating conical surface is screwed, which ensures cavity sealed during cavitation when conical surfaces contact, housing is placed between two attached to it metal plates-pads, in housing and in said plates-patches there made are cutouts identical in contour, which form not less than two opposite positioned handles, conjugated with supercharged gloves of astronaut's space suit and safety tether springhook.
EFFECT: high ergonomics, reliability and safety of sampling by an astronaut in a space suit from the outer surface of the hermetically enclosed space object.
