METHOD FOR LOADING A CASING WITH A HIGH ACTIVITY RADIONUCLIDE INTO A SHIELDING CONTAINER AND A DEVICE FOR ITS IMPLEMENTATION Russian patent published in 2020 - IPC G21C19/00 

FIELD: nuclear equipment.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to a loading-unloading device of a case with a high-activity radionuclide in a shielding container of a transport-packing kit. A case with a high activity radionuclide is placed in a hot chamber (HC) having in the HC bottom a hatch closed by a tightly detachable cover and equipped with an electromechanical manipulator, along the track of the tunnel channel located under the HC, remotely using a control panel, a movable container is delivered with a shielding container (SC) installed in it, from which the fastening elements of the cover are removed and a puller is installed on the cover, under the hatch HC, manipulator removes the hatch cover and puts it inside on the HC bottom, removes the SC cover from the manipulator using the puller and places it on the chamber bottom, is installed on the SC guiding funnel with the manipulator, manipulator is used to grip the case with a high-activity radionuclide and lower it into a funnel and the latter under its own weight is finally lowered into the inner cavity of SC, manipulator is installed on SC cover and remotely moving along track channel movable container with installed in it SC on maintenance station, located at the beginning of tunnel, lid is fixed on container, by means of hoisting device is removed from movable container SC, SC is installed on bogie and delivered to packing point in transport-packing set.

EFFECT: possibility of carrying out technological operations for loading and unloading of a case with a high-activity radionuclide on a line of a hot chamber of a radiochemical laboratory in a shielding container of a transport-packing set and providing personnel safety at all stages of technological operations.
