Abstract: An assembly for transporting uranium hexafluoride, includes: a sealed inner container, defining a first containment shell intended to be loaded with uranium hexafluoride and having a general cylindrical shape of circular cross-section, the first containment shell being delimited by a lateral wall extending about a longitudinal central axis of the inner container, as well as by two opposite axial end walls crossed by the longitudinal central axis, at least one of the two opposite axial end walls of the sealed inner container being equipped with a uranium hexafluoride filling valve; a sealed outer container delimiting a second containment shell in which the inner container is housed in an extractable manner; and two shock absorber caps removably fastened on respectively two opposite axial ends of the outer container.

Abstract: A package for transporting and/or storing radioactive materials, comprises a cavity for housing radioactive materials, as well as a radiological protection device comprising radiological protection elements arranged in an annular space, at least two successive radiological protection elements along a given direction of the annular space, from a longitudinal direction and a circumferential direction, and a locking member designed to limit and/or prevent the distancing of the two radiological protection elements relative to one another in a given direction.
