Benefits of technology

The Metal Stud Leak-Proof Barrier System has several technical benefits: it eliminates the use of lead strips between sheetrock layers; reduces the risk of back injury from heavy materials handling; saves money on labor costs through reduced installation times; provides better safety standards with fewer risks associated with working around X-ray machines or other medical equipment; and improves overall quality control throughout the building process.

Problems solved by technology

The technical problem addressed in this patent text is how to create a better method for installing a leak-proof lead barrier system on metal studs with reduced installation time and costs, improved efficiency, increased safety, and enhanced performance.

Embodiment Construction

[0021]A metal stud system for accepting and suspending lead sheets for radiology suite construction wherein the metal stud is configured to have two holding cavities wherein the first holding cavity and the second holding cavity are constructed and aligned along a vertical plane so that when a lead sheet is held in the first holding cavity and a lead sheet is held in the second holding cavity, the lead sheets overlap, and thereby, create a radiation leak-proof metal stud system.

[0022]FIG. 1 illustrates a full scale view of the radiation leak-proof sheet metal stud, 20, suitable for suspending lead sheets for radiology suite construction in the present invention. The metal stud, 20, of the present invention is created by two holding cavities, 26 and 27 respectively. The first holding cavity 26 is configured and aligns along the central planar portion, 23, and extends inwardly between the front planar portion 21 of the metal stud, 20, and the rear planar portion 22 as illustrated. The...

Abstract

The present invention relates to an article of manufacture and a method of how to utilize the same in order to create a radiation leak-proof environment. The present invention further relates to a metal stud configured with two holding cavities wherein the first holding cavity and the second holding cavity are constructed so that when a lead sheet is held in the first holding cavity and wherein a lead sheet is held in the second holding cavity the lead sheets overlap, and thereby, create a radiation leak-proof metal stud system.
Additionally, what has been discovered is a radiation leak-proof barrier systems having a metal stud configuration that eliminates the need for a strip of lead behind the joints of abutting sheets of lead lined drywall; it eliminates the need to place lead buttons over the head of each screw used to attach the drywall to conventional metal stud systems; it eliminates the need for the installer to simultaneously handle both drywall and lead sheets; it reduces the potential for back injury to the installer by reducing material handling weight during construction, thereby, minimizes workers' compensation claims; and, it reduces start to finish construction time, while providing maximum protection against radiation escape or leakage.
