Abstract
The present invention relates to a device for transporting and holding of touch-sensitive structural elements or materials, the device comprising the following features: At least an oscillatory plate-like take-upfor receiving the object to be transported or held, on which at least an oscillation generatoris fixed, and at least two supporting members, wherein the oscillation generatoris arranged on the plate-like take-upat a predetermined position thereof to set the plate-like take-up into flexural vibrations, and the supporting membersare arranged at positions where the amplitude of the flexural vibration is lower than the maximum amplitude by at least 50%, and the oscillation generatoris operated with a frequency setting the plate-like take-upinto vibrations so that the structural elements or the material are (is) levitating in a contact-free way.
