PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To convey pachinko balls while horizontally moving them or drawing a curve, to eliminate clogging at the horizontal or curved section, to improve the degree of freedom in design and to reduce an ocuppied space in spite of conveying ability by conveying the pachinko balls by rotationally driving a helical coil with a driving source. SOLUTION: A motor 1 rotates a helical coil 2 so as to convey pachinko balls 3. The pachinko ball 3 put in from an inserting port 5a falls through a guide hole 5c because of dead weight and flows from one end 4x of a block 4 for horizontal move into a pachinko ball guide part. Then, the respective pachinko balls 3 are turned into the state of being inserted into a gap between the pitches of the helical coil 2 and while regulating their positions through the guide part for pachinko ball move, they are conveyed from right to left by rotationally driving the helical coil 2. Next, the pachinko balls are guided to the guide part for pachinko ball move at a guide hole 6c of a block 6 for curved move, lifted to the direction of an arrowαby rotationally driving the helical coil 2, dropped outside from one end 6y and suitably conveyed to the target position.
