Sterile cover for a wind screen made of radioprotective material

A sterile cover intended to cover at least part of the height of a screen (1) made of radioprotective material ensuring protection of an operator against the ionizing radiation emissions of the X-ray type or the like, wherein said screen (1), of the type having an L-shaped horizontal cross-section, is made up of a front wall (2) associated with a side wall (3) extending perpendicularly or substantially perpendicularly from said front wall (2), wherein said front wall (2) is provided with two orifices (10, 11) for the passage of the arms of said operator, a first passage orifice (10) being arranged in the vicinity of the angle formed by said front (2) and side (3) walls, a second passage orifice (11) being located at the free edge (13) of said front wall (2) and being laterally open, thus having the general form of a horizontally oriented circular arc or U-shaped indentation,

• characterized in that said sterile cover (20) is in the form of a single part, which comprises at least two panels, one being referred to as the “inner panel” (22a) and the other being referred to as the “outer panel” (21a), shaped so as to cover at least the inner and outer faces of said front wall (2), respectively, over at least part of their height extending below and above said arm passage orifices (10, 11), wherein said inner (22a) and outer (21a) panels are connected by a junction region (23) shaped so as to match at least part of the height of the free edge (13) of said front wall (2), said junction region (23) comprising an indentation (38) shaped so as to match the edge of said second passage orifice (11), and wherein said inner (22a) and outer (21a) panels are each provided with an opening (30, 33) intended to be placed on either side of said first passage orifice (10), the opening (30, 33) of at least one of said panels (21a, 22a) being provided with a flexible tubular element (34) forming a kind of cuff, said cuff (34) being intended to be passed through said first orifice (10), so as to cover the edge thereof and to guarantee asepsis of said orifice (10).
