TRANSPORT OF RADIOACTIVE MATERIAL AND DEVICE FOR SUSPENDING STORAGE CASK

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a suspender which enables double suspending even in erecting casks. SOLUTION: Main arms 7 are turnably mounted on both ends of a main beam 4, and auxiliary arms 8 are also turnably mounted on both ends of auxiliary beams 5 which are fixed so that the arms 8 can be orthogonal to the main beam 4. A first holding section 10 for holding trunnion axes 9 laid out at 90°intervals on the girth on the upper side of the cask 2 is formed at the tip of each of the arms 7 and 8. Moreover, a second holding section 11 for holding the trunnion axes 9 held by the first holding section 10 of the main arm 7 is connected to each of both the ends of the main beam 4 with a wire rope 12.
