Patent attributes
A valued article, such as artwork, an antiquity or a collectible, is contained within a container protected against impact and shock during transportation and storage by connecting the article to an inner frame at spaced apart connections along the perimeter of the article and suspending the inner frame from a surrounding outer frame at spaced apart suspenders along the perimeter of the inner frame, the suspenders being constructed of a shock-absorbing material to isolate the inner frame from the transmission of shocks from the outer frame to the inner frame and the spaced apart arrangement of connections and suspenders establishing open gaps which deter the transmission of impacts from outside the container to the article. Additional open gaps between covers affixed to the outer frame and the contained article further deter the transmission of impacts from outside the container to the article.
