摘要

Each air cushion (10) has walls forming a hermetic interior in which partitions (21-24) are arranged. The partitions are interconnected into the form of a cross such that the distal end of each partition abuts a wall of the air cushion. Valves (30) connect the interior to a compressed air supply.
