A shipping container comprises a tubular or cylindrical shell having a closed end and an open end, a top end-cap removably secured to the open end of the tubular or cylindrical shell, and at least one fuel assembly compartment defined inside the shell. Each fuel assembly compartment includes elastomeric sidewalls and is sized and shaped to receive an unirradiated nuclear fuel assembly through the open end of the shell. The shipping container may further include a divider component, for example having a cross-shaped cross-section with ends of the cross secured to inner walls of the shell, and the divider component and the inner walls of the shell define the fuel assembly compartments. To load, the shipping container is arranged vertically and an unirradiated nuclear fuel assembly is loaded through the open end of the shell into each compartment, after which the open end is closed off by securing the top end-cap.

A device for pulling the starter cord of a lawn mower engine utilizes a pulling cable attached to a pulley wheel activated by a high torque electric motor. An elongated base supports an upright post, upon which the motor is mounted. A chute protectively guides the cable as it spans the distance between the pulley wheel and starter cord. A restoring cable, in association with a return wheel and coil spring unwind the pulling cord from the pulley wheel when the motor is deactivated.

Lawn mower starting device

A device for pulling the starter cord of a lawn mower engine utilizes a pulling cable disposed about upper and lower pulleys on a vertical post. The upper extremity of the pulling cable is attached to a lever pivotally joined to the vertical post. Downward movement of the lever causes the starter cord to be pulled horizontally.
