To provide transport devices that can transport stably even in uneven places and in areas with many curves and are suitable for long objects, especially for stably transporting wood from mountainous areas.SOLUTION: The present invention has a sensor 13 for an object to be transported, which outputs the transportation status information of the object to be transported, and the control unit 14 receives the output signal of the sensor 13 for the object to be transported to perform a predetermined control. For example, the traveling control of a traveling body 11 and the support position control of the object to be transported in a support unit 12 of the object to be transported are performed according to the transportation status information. Stable transportation becomes possible by controlling the traveling direction of the traveling body 11, and the like, depending on the situation and the like that the part where the sensor 13 for the object to be transported is attached, for example, the vicinity of the rear end T2 of the wood T exists in a position that is greatly deviated from the traveling body 11 to the left and right.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1【課題】平坦でない場所やカーブの多い場所でも安定した搬送が可能であり、長尺物、特に、木材を山間地から安定して搬送するのに適する搬送装置を提供する。【解決手段】搬送対象物の搬送状況情報を出力する搬送対象物用センサ１３を有し、制御部１４が、搬送対象物用センサ１３の出力信号を受信して所定の制御を行う。例えば、搬送状況情報に応じて、走行体１１の走行制御や搬送対象物支持部１２における搬送対象物の支持位置制御を行う。搬送対象物用センサ１３を取り付けている部位、例えば、木材Ｔの後端Ｔ２付近が、走行体１１よりも左右に大きくずれた位置に存在していたりする等の状況に応じ、走行体１１の走行方向等の調整を行うことで安定した搬送が可能となる。【選択図】図１
