Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2010043534A1] The invention relates to an arrangement (10) for transporting uranium hexafluoride, comprising an inner tank (12) and an outer tank (14) which holds the inner tank and which comprises a first and second shell (16, 18). A valve (28) extends from an end face (24) of the inner tank. Said valve is surrounded by the outer tank at a distance and is covered on the outside by at least one shock-absorbing element (30). In order to ensure a defined positioning of the valve extending from the inner tank and thus of the inner tank to the outer tank surrounding said inner tank, it is proposed that the shock-absorbing protective element (30) extends in a pivoting manner from one of the shells of the outer tank (14), that if the inner tank (12) is properly positioned the protective element can be pivoted into a position covering the valve, and that if the outer tank holding the inner tank is closed, the protective element is covered on the outside by at least one of the shells (16, 18).
