SPECIMEN HOLDER FOR RADIOACTIVE SAMPLES Filed July 10, 1959 F'IGJ g "1 NM INVENTOR G- SIMENS HUGO Y =7 f7. Mi
5 TT RNEY United htates Patent 2,992,726 SPECIMEN HOLDER FOR RADIOACTIVE SANIPLES Hugo G. Simens, San Leandro, Calif assignor to United Aircraft Corporation, East Hartford, Conn., a corporation of Delaware Filed July 10, 1959, Ser. No. 826,210 Claims. (Cl. 206-1) This invention relates to specimen holders for radioactive samples.
The use of highly radioactive specimens in the X-ray speotograph presents serious handling problems. One of the most acute hazards of radioactivity is air-borne contamination from powders and dusts. Heretofore the specimen has been enclosed in a plastic boat by gluing a piece of one-quarter mil Mylar film to the top exposed surfaces of the plastic which extend around the periphery of the boat. This procedure of containment has two disadvantages. First, attachment of Mylar to an open-top sample holder requires close physical handling. If the sample emits penetrating radiation, the person preparing the specimen is exposed to the radiation from the specimen and may receive an above-tolerance radiation exposure. Secend, the specimens rest on the bottom of the specimen holder and particularly, if they are small volume samples, such as powder, they are one-half inch or more from the primary X-ray source. For long wave length secondary X-ray emissions, this extra one-half inch added to the minimum air path in the goniometer may seriously reduce the detected intensity.
It is an object of this invention to provide a new and improved sample holder which overcomes these difiiculties.
More specifically, it is an object of this invention to provide a sample holder which may be loaded and unloaded remotely.
Another object of the invention is to provide a sample holder of minimum depth, insuring the best possible intensity from long wave length secondary X-ray emissions.
A further object of this invention is to provide a new and improved hermetically sealed sample holder capable of containing radioactive powders and dusts.
A yet further object of this invention is to provide a new and improved sample holder which is capable of safely containing liquid samples.
A still further object is generally to improve sample holders for radioactive specimens.
These and other objects and advantages of the sample holder of this invention will be pointed out or will become obvious from the following detailed description of a preferred embodiment of the invention shown in the accompanying drawing. In this drawing:
FIG. 1 is a plan view of the specimen holder of this invention with its cover removed;
FIG. 2 is a view taken online 2-2 of FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is a view taken on line 3-3 of FIG. 2 with the cover in place; and
FIG. 4 is a sectional detail of the cover.
The specimen holder of this invention consists of two partsa base generally indicated at It and a cover generally indicated at 12. The base consists of a substantially rectangular block of Lucite or other suitable material which is not readily broken down by prolonged bornbardment from radioactive material. Base 19 has a depth of approximately one-half inch or less, the drawing being approximately at a scale of l= /2. The base has a shallow well 14- in its top surface which is located closer to the left end 16 than it is to the right-hand end 13. This leaves a solid portion 20 at the right-hand end of the base which can be used for clamping the base to a suitable surface during loading which it may be necessary to accomplish remotely. The base is also provided with a transverse blind slot 22 which extends from the lefthand end 16 to a point 24 beyond the well, the dimensions of the slot being such that a groove 26 is provided all the way around the periphery of the well 14.
It will be noted that the groove 26 provides a bottom peripheral ledge 28 which forms the bottom of the slot and extends on all sides about the well 14. It will also be noted that the slot 22 is located a substantial distance below the top of the base so that the ledge 28 is relatively close to the bottom fill of the well which forms the specimen supporting area. The distance may vary. If the samples to be inspected are a powder or a dust, the spacing between the ledge 28 and the bottom 30 can, of course, be less than if a larger diameter particle is to be examined. The spacing shown of approximately oneeighth inch is suitable for most specimens encountered.
The cover consists of a frame 32 enclosing an opening 34 which is substantially commensurate with the well 14. The frame 32, which also is of Lucite, is substantially of the dimensions of the slot 22, so that when the cover is inserted fully into the slot the opening 34 registers with the well 14 and the frame 32 registers with the narrow ledge 28. A thin film of Mylar 36 is adhesively secured to the top fiat face of the frame 32 by means of a suitable plastic cement. This Mylar film is preferably not over .00025 inch in thickness. This film must be kept extremely thin where the specimens are alpha, beta or betagamma emitters. The thickness of the cover 12 and the depth of groove 26 are such that a close-sliding fit of the cover in the groove is obtained so that the specimen cham ber 37 beneath the cover is hermetically sealed.
It is also possible by wetting the bottom flat surface of frame 32 with plastic cement to obtain :a seal adequate to contain radioactive liquids in the specimen compartment 37.
In order to facilitate the removal of the: cover from the base, the material of the base above the ledge 28 at the left-hand end 16 of the base, may be cut away leaving the end of the cover frame exposed between the grooves 26 at the sides of the base.
From the above description of a preferred embodiment of the invention, it will be evident that by clamping the base 10 firmly to a supporting surface the radioactive samples may be inserted into the chamber 37 and the cover 12 may he slid into position to seal the chamber from a remote point using techniques which are wellknown in this art.
It will also be noted that the depth of the holder is at a minimum for insuring the best possible intensity from long Wave length secondary X-ray emissions. It will further be evident that by wetting the bottom surfaces of the cover frame with plastic cement it is possible to seal the compartment so that radioactive liquids can be contained in the specimen holder.
While only one embodiment of the invention has been disclosed herein, it will be evident that various changes can be made in the construction and arrangements of the parts within the scope of the invention.
