AIR FLOATING TYPE EXAMINATION DEVICE AND AIR FLOATING TYPE EXAMINATION METHOD

PURPOSE:To enable examining devices and structure, etc., of a plant which could not be examined visually, easily, safely automatically and in a short time by remotely operating an examination device mainbody and displaying the image of a photographing device. CONSTITUTION:When the switches for moving means operation is operated with looking the monitor screen of an operation means 10 remotely, the means 10 emits a radio wave. Then, the antenna 7 of an examination device mainbody 1 receives the radio wave and a moving means 3 is driven so that the mainbody 1 moves to the destinated direction at a properly slow speed. In parallel to the move of the moving means 3, the operation switched 11b for photographing device in the operation means 10 are operated and then, the photographing device 4 starts working for photographing. The photographing device 4 converts the taken image into radio wave, outputs out of the antenna 7 and sends to the operation means 10.
