A movable table for serving out food has an operating position for serving
out food, and a transportation position for moving of the table. The
movable table comprises at least two modules, each module comprising an
automated transferring device, e.g. at least one conveyor belt, for
transferring food receptacles from one end of the table to an opposite
end thereof. The upper side of the transferring device in operating
position forms a working surface of the table. The table is furthermore
adapted for fixing a support above the table surface. Each module may be
provided with a transferring mechanism for transferring food receptacles
on the automated transferring device of that module when the table is in
the operating position. The transferring mechanism of a module
operatively connects as the table is into the operating position and
operatively disengages when the table is brought into the transportation
position.
