Abstract: An object of the present invention is to develop a conveying device capable of carrying out an object in multiple directions. The conveying device includes a plurality of conveying cells 1 that move the object, and the plurality of conveying cells 1 are arranged in plane. The conveying cell 1 includes a conveying direction changing unit that changes a conveying direction and a controller. An address is given to the conveying cell 1, and based on a conveying destination of the object carried in the conveying cell 1 and an own address of the conveying cell 1, the controller determines a carrying-out direction of the conveying cell 1 such that the object approaches the conveying destination.

Abstract: An object is to provide a conveyor that enables the number of information read-out devices to be largely reduced and that can be easily constructed. An object identifying device (45) is installed in the first zone. The object identifying device (45) is a bar code reader. Information read by the bar code reader is transmitted to a host control device (46). The host control device (46) identifies an object from information described in a bar code, makes an inquiry about a conveyance destination of an object, transmits the address of the target place to a zone controller (10) of the second zone, and inputs the address to a conveyance destination storage unit of the zone controller (10) of the second zone. The conveyance destination information input to the conveyance destination storage unit is passed on to the downstream zone controller (10) with the conveyance of the object.
