Patent ID: 8616366

Claim:
A food and drink conveying device, comprising: a travel path; a conveyor driving body provided beneath the travel path along the travel path; and a travel body having a first magnetic body underneath said travel body, said first magnetic body being positioned to travel over said travel path with food or drink placed on top of said travel body, wherein a second magnetic body having a polarity opposite to that of said first magnetic body is connected to an upper portion of said conveyor driving body beneath said travel path with a connection portion provided between, whereby said travel body travels over said travel path as a result of magnetic force between said first magnetic body and said second magnetic body when said conveyor driving body is driven, a lift preventing means for preventing said second magnetic body from being lifted due to the magnetic force between said first magnetic body and said second magnetic body, which moves together with said conveyor driving body, is provided in a vicinity of said second magnetic body so as to make contact with said travel path, said lift preventing means comprises a pair of rollers which make contact with said travel path and rotate so that said lift preventing means move together with said conveyor driving body, the pair of rollers are aligned in a direction in which said conveyor driving body is driven, and said second magnetic body is provided between said pair of rollers.
