PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a transport device capable of selecting a single workpiece and workpieces which are connected in a linear state.SOLUTION: The transport device comprises selection means 10 for transporting an annular workpiece 2 in an inclined state inclined to one side of an axial direction. The selection means 10 is configured so that distance B between a top surface of a first wall 11 supporting one end surface of the workpiece 2 in the axial direction at a front side in a movement direction of the workpiece 2 of a predetermined position P and a top surface of a second wall 12 for supporting the other end surface of the workpiece 2 is shorter than radius of the workpiece 2. A single workpiece outlet 14 is provided on the front side in the movement direction of the workpiece 2 of the position P. The first wall 11 is extended to the front side in the movement direction of the workpiece 2 of the single work outlet 14, for forming a transport wall 15. Therefore the single workpiece 2 is discharged from the single workpiece outlet 14. On the other hand, two connected workpieces in a linear state are moved over the transport wall 15 formed by extending the first wall 11. |
