Abstract
The transport apparatus for magnetic cards includes a belt drive with an endless belt having a portion bearing on the information-bearing card conveyed by it and an opposing retaining member opposite the belt drive, on which the portion bearing on the information-bearing card can press the card during further transport. The portion of the endless belt on the opposite side from the information-bearing card is acted on with pressurized gas, especially pressurized air, to press the endless belt against the information-bearing card. The opposing retaining member can be another belt drive with another endless belt bearing on the information-bearing card, which is also acted on by compressed gas to provide additional clamping force to hold the information-bearing card fixed without vibration during transport.
