Abstract: A cart is conveniently loaded and unloaded for protected transport of vulnerable artwork of larger dimensions. A cage located at the top of the cart includes perimetric members that confine the artwork safely during transport. One of the perimetric members is selectively removable for opening the cage to admit and release the artwork into and out of the cage through a corresponding side of the cage, thereby avoiding lifting of the artwork vertically over the cage during loading and unloading of the artwork transported by the cart.

Abstract: A cushion and method provide relief of pain or discomfort in the pelvic/genital/rectal region of a person. The person is supported on a resilient cushion construct which conforms to the person's posterior profile contour configuration, while locating a plenum-like portion of a gap beneath the pelvic/genital/rectal region of the person. An airway is extended to the gap, through a basal construct located beneath the cushion construct and an air mover moves ambient air through the airway and into the plenum-like portion of the gap to provide cooling to the pelvic/genital/rectal region of the person supported on the cushion construct.

Abstract: An apparatus and method utilize a conventional portable shop vacuum to facilitate the collection of dust generated by a machine tool in a workshop. Selective translation of the machine tool along a workshop floor among chosen locations is enabled by virtue of casters provided by the shop vacuum. A selectively operated actuating mechanism renders the machine tool stationary at any one particular chosen location along the workshop floor.

Abstract: A container and method for containing a valued article protected against impact and shock during transportation and storage. The article is packed within an inner case and an inner frame is extended around the inner case, juxtaposed with the inner case at spaced apart locations along the exterior of the inner case. The inner frame is suspended within a circumambient outer frame and is spaced away from the outer frame by shock-absorbent suspenders placed at corresponding spaced apart corners of the inner and outer frames, with open gaps established between the spaced-apart suspenders. Cover members are juxtaposed with the outer frame to extend circumambient over the exterior of the inner case and cover the open gaps between the inner case and the cover members such that the open gaps deter the transmission of impacts from outside the container to the inner case.

Abstract: 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.
