Abstract

A resilient transverse partition for a substantially cylindrical body such as a drum or a pipe, wherein a plurality of narrow elongated leaves of thin resilient material and equal length are co-joined in an overlapping fanned array about a common center with their ends slideable with respect to one another and congruent with a circle of slightly greater diameter than said body, so that the array of leaves can be forced into the body transversely and coaxially therewithin and deformed into a concavo-convex domes partition resilient to axial displacement from forces acting on its convex side.
