To provide a method for conveying an air-permeable sheet capable of reliably sucking and transporting the given number of air permeable sheets.
A method for conveying an air-permeable sheet is a method for conveying an air-permeable sheet 2 positioned outside the laminated air- permeable sheets 2 and sucked by the suction force of air for conveyance. When the air-permeable sheet 2 positioned outside the air-permeable sheet 2 is sucked and conveyed by the suction force of air of a sheet conveying means 3, in a state that movement of the air-permeable sheet 2 positioned at the outside during next conveyance is regulated by a regulating member 12 approaching between the air-permeable sheets 2 equivalent to the number of the air- permeable sheets desired to be conveyed and the air-permeable sheet 2 positioned at the outside during next conveyance, the number of the air-permeable sheets 2 desired to be conveyed by the sheet conveying means 3 is sucked for conveyance.
