PURPOSE: To prevent the inconvenience of local overheating, etc., by surely rotating and heating a beverage can. CONSTITUTION: Reception rollers 11a and 11b which load the end parts of beverage cans 1 and support them from the lower side are arranged in such a way that they can appear from the upper surface of a shooter 2, at the lower parts of the tip-side of a shooter 2 inclining to the horizontal plane by a prescribed angle so that a tip part becomes low. A pressing belt 21 for pressing the beverage can 1 on the shooter 2 is arranged so that it can vertically be moved. A driving means 31 which rotation-drives the belt 21 is provided. A stopper which causes the beverage can to abut on and stops it on the shooter 2 is arranged on the tip part-side of the shooter 2 in such a way that it can be rotated around an axial line which is almost parallel to the radial direction of the beverage can and that it can be turned between the position of the tip-side of the beverage can 1 on the shooter 2 and a position withdrawn from the position concerned in the radial direction of the beverage can 1.
