ABSTRACT:
A transport system having a collapsible support body, flexibly coupled loop segments forming a continuous loop disposed above the collapsible support body, and air-bearing space intermediate the continuous loop and support body, means for supplying pressurized air to the support body and hence to the air-bearing space, drive means and side-sealing means. The system provides a portable transport system which may be easily assembled, disassembled, and stored in a minimum of space. According to a further aspect, there are provided for side-sealing means comprising first and second means disposed on the continuous loop and support body, these means minimizing the loss of air from the air-bearing space and entailing very little friction.
