Abstract

908,134. Shielded containers for radioactive material. MITCHELL ENGINEERING Ltd. May 11, 1961 [Aug. 3, 1960], No. 26873/60 and Class 39 (4). [Also in Group XX] A container for a radioactive pencil comprises a lead-filled casing with a cylindrical recess for receiving a holder for the pencil and a cap for covering the holder, the holder and the cap incorporating radiation shielding material and having quick release connections with the container. The radioactive source may be held in a recess 12 (Fig. 1) of a pencil 10 by a cap 13 and the pencil is held in the said holder H (Fig. 2) by a screw which engages a groove 14 on the pencil. The pencil is screw threaded at 11 so that handling rods may be used. The holder 12 is provided with pins 21 which engage slots in a recess in a container C to form a bayonet connection. A cap 35 is provided with a similar bayonet connection 31, 37 for attachment to the container. The container is provided with a handle 43 which may be padlocked to the cap 35 by means of lugs 44, 45. The holder H may be removed from the container and held in a recess in a saddle (Fig. 4) by a bayonet connection 21, 53. The saddle is provided with a V-notch 55 so that it may be mounted on a pipe for inspection thereof, and held there by straps engaging lugs 54. A wooden and steel carrying case may be provided for carrying the container C and one or more saddles.
