Abstract
Containers for containing a drum having a sensitive cylindrical outer surface, each container utilizing a relatively thin-walled construction including a body with side walls establishing a polygonal cross-sectional configuration within which the drum is suspended by supports engaging the drum adjacent the ends thereof such that contact with the sensitive outer surface of the drum is avoided, the interior of each container being sealed by an air-resistant seal to isolate the interior of the container from the surrounding environment while establishing an air cushion for reinforcing the thin-walled body against external forces so as to preclude damaging contact between the side walls and the sensitive outer surface of the drum.
