<p>A storage and transport container (10) for radioactive medical materials comprising a stainless steel shell (11) with a central stainless steel well (16) opening downwardly from the top (14) of the container (10) with a multiplicity of small diameter, generally U-shaped stainless steel tubes (20), one end of each such tube (20) extending out of each side of the stainless steel shell (11), the bottom of the U-portion of each tube (20) passing under the central well (16). Where the container (10) is substantially cylindrical, the well (16) and stainless steel tubes (20) may extend substantially through the length of the shell (11). The wells (16) of the containers (10) are stoppered or sealed with a plug (17) of radiation shielding material. A novel handle structure (80) for such containers (10) comprises a vertical shaft (81) connnected to the container (10) by a short open sleeve (82) attached near the top of one side of the container (10) so that the shaft (81) may move upwardly and downwardly in the sleeve (82) and rotate therein.</p> |
