To improve the productivity and the quality of a glass plate by transporting the glass plate in 2 rows in a heating furnace and sending out to one line of a bending process in an apparatus for transporting the glass plate.

The apparatus 10 for transporting the glass plate 12 is constituted of a 2 row transporting roller conveyer 14 for transporting the glass plate 12 in 2 rows at a speed of V, a double speed roller conveyer 16 for transporting the glass plate 12 at a speed of 2V, a quadruple speed roller conveyer 18 for transporting the glass plate at a speed of 4V and a sending out roller conveyer 22 for transporting the glass plate 12 to the bending process.
