ABSTRACT:
A fluid-cushion supporting arrangement for horizontal conveyance has a supporting platform, a flexible angular sealing element arranged under the platform in the region of its marginal portion and formed as a sealing piston with a horizontal leg forming together with the supporting platform a fluid chamber and a vertical leg forming together with the supporting platform a control pressure chamber, a pressure-regulating device through which the chambers communicate with one another so that the fluid from the fluid chamber can act upon the control pressure chamber in a pressure-dependent manner, and first and second sensors which are parts of the inlet and the pressure-regulating element and brought in contact with the horizontal leg and the vertical leg of the sealing piston, respectively.
