Verfahren und Vorrichtung zur raumlichen Einteilung und Orientierung von Hörnchenteigstücken.

摘要

An apparatus for spacing and orienting croissant dough pieces (2) has a dough-spacing means (5) located at the position where the dough pieces are transferred from an upstream conveyor (3) to a downstream conveyor (4), which dough-spacing means (5) spaces the dough pieces (2) apart from one another in the feeding direction on the downstream conveyor (4) in a staggered manner, and a reorienting means (6) for turning the dough pieces (2) to place one predetermined side of each dough piece (2) at right angles to the feeding direction of the downstream conveyor (4). The dough pieces (2) are thus spaced apart from one another without increasing the conveyor width. The dough pieces (2) are then fed to a downstream rolling-up apparatus after ensuring that the said predetermined side of each of the dough pieces (2) is at right angles to the feeding direction.
