To provide a carrying device for granular cereals which improves carrier efficiency by making a horizontal cross section of a carrier cylinder body be a regular octagon shape.

The vertical carrying device for granular cereals is provided with a carrying screw 4 for carrying the granular cereals in the vertically provided carrier cylinder body 1 having a granular cereal introduction part 2 at the lower part and a granular cereal discharge part 3 at the upper part. The vertical carrying device for granular cereals is characterized in that the clearance between the inner peripheral surface of the carrier cylinder body 1 and an outer edge of the carrying screw 4 is set as much as possible, and the horizontal cross section of the inner peripheral surface of the carrier cylinder body 1 is a regular polygonal shape of a hexagonal shape or more.
