DEVICE FOR PRODUCING RADIOISOTOPE AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING RADIOISOTOPE

To properly insert raw material for a radioisotope into an instrumentation tube.SOLUTION: A device for producing a radioisotope is to produce a radioisotope by disposing RI material, which is raw material for a radioisotope, in a nuclear reactor. The device includes a supply part that moves inside an instrumentation tube connected to the nuclear reactor, a bag part that is attached to the tip of the supply part, the inside of which is in communication with the RI material passage area of the supply part, and which allows the RI material to be stored therein, and a transporter that transports the RI material from the supply part to the bag part.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3 【課題】放射性同位体の原料を計装管に適切に挿入する。【解決手段】放射性同位体の原料であるＲＩ原料を原子炉内に配置し、放射性同位体を製造する放射性同位体の製造装置であって、原子炉に接続された計装管の内部を移動する供給部と、供給部の先端に装着され、内部が供給部のＲＩ原料の通過領域と繋がり、ＲＩ原料を収納可能な袋部と、供給部からＲＩ原料を袋部に搬送する搬送機構と、を含む。【選択図】図３
