Abstract
The invention relates to a docking arrangement for docking a transport container to a lock opening of a radioactively charged work chamber for loading and unloading radioactive materials. In order to dock the heavy transport container precisely at the lock opening and to reliably remotely manipulate the closure cover of the container, the lock opening is covered from within the work chamber by a bell-shaped closure device which can be removed inwardly. This bell-shaped closure device is laterally displaceable in the lock opening and is resiliently journalled and therefore can align itself with respect to the docked transport container.
