1. A removable storage device intended to be housed in an internal cavity of a form of packaging for transporting and/or storing radioactive materials, including several substructures which can be displaced relative to one another and positioned around a longitudinal axis of the device, where all these substructures define multiple adjacent recesses intended to contain said radioactive materials, and where each substructure delimits at least partly at least one of said recesses, where the device includes deployment means for deploying said substructures, where these deployment means include actuation means acting by collaboration of shapes on a longitudinal end of at least one of said substructures of the device through at least one bearing surface having, when seen in section along any plane passing through said longitudinal axis, the shape of a line segment inclined relative to said axis, such that displacing said actuation means in a first direction parallel to said longitudinal axis causes said at least one substructure to be displaced radially towards the exterior relative to said longitudinal axis.
