Abstract

PURPOSE:To transport a load, by injecting a high-pressure air from air injection cylinders provided on a lower surface of the body to float the body, and moving the body forwardly and reversely by means of driving rollers under a floating condition. CONSTITUTION:An air floating transport is provided with air injection cylinders 3 on a lower surface thereof, so that a high-pressure gas supplied from a high- pressure gas source through a gas supply hose 6 may be injected from the cylinders 3. The apparatus is further provided on its both sides elastic rollers 21 adapted to be rotated by a motor 28. When the elastic rollers 21 are pressed on the body, and the motor 28 is driven, the rollers 21 are rotated to thereby move the body.
