Abstract (en)
[origin: DE19917143A1] The invention relates to a fluid cushion transport system (1) with a driven transport slide (3) which moves on a stationary transport rail (2) and on a fluid cushion in a levitating manner. Outlets (5) are provided in the transport rail (2) for guiding the fluid that is required for the fluid cushion under the transport slide (3). Said outlets (5) are closed by means of controllable valves (8) which are only opened by means of a release element (23) of the transport slide (3) when said slide is situated over the corresponding valve (8).
