Abstract

A seismic restraint means for supporting a generally cylindrical nuclear radiation detector within a tubular thimble. At least two housing segments are joined together to form a clamp-like ring about the cylinder. At least one energy absorbing means is operably associated with each segment for generally radial displacement relative thereto. The energy absorbing means are characterized by a damping means therein which is characterized by resiliency and a lack of resonance. The damping means is preferably a knitted metal pad formed from wound, flattened wire-mesh tubing, stainless steel wool, or thin metal strip looped to form a sponge-like material.
