A three-dimensional carrying conveyor in which the radius of curvature of a carrying line can be decreased even if a top plate unit forming the carrying face has a large width and the top plate unit is freely movable in three- dimensional directions, up/down, left/right and oblique, and turnable about the axis in the carrying direction. The three-dimensional carrying conveyor is arranged such that spherical body containing sections becoming joints are formed at two, front and rear, positions in the top plate unit, spherical bodies formed at the opposite ends of each link are fitted idly and unremovably in the spherical body containing sections at two positions, and respective top plate unit are interlinked to incline in an arbitrary directi on within a specified angular range. Furthermore, meshing parts with a sprocket standardized for driving conveyor are formed at the outer left and right sid es of the spherical body containing section on the lower surface of the plate o f each top plate unit so that the top plate unit can be traveled in an arbitra ry direction vertically or laterally by the rotary driving force of the sprocke t.
