ABSTRACT:
An air table system which utilizes air jet openings in the table surface of objects, such as a pattern configuration to lift, support and direct movement of containers, to feed same from a plurality of sources to fewer destinations or vice versa. With suitable cover configuration, partially closed and open covers, movement of the containers around or to one side of blockades to accomplish controlled movement of the containers is made possible. A higher air pressure zone is created under the closed portions than under the open portions to act as an air barrier to separate and move the objects away from the higher air pressure zones and along predetermined paths.
