Embodiment Construction

[0013] As mentioned above, figure 1 and 2 The originally conceived crimping and cutting arrangement is shown. This arrangement uses a multi-row extruder 62 having a plurality of laterally spaced heads, one of which is indicated at 65 . As shown in the enlarged view, each head 65 includes an outer channel-defining member 67 and a concentric inner channel-defining member 68 forming an outer die opening 71 and a central die opening 73 . Outer dough material 72 (which may be cooked or uncooked so long as it can be sealed with pressure) flows through outer die opening 71 while filling material 75 flows through central die opening 73 at the same time. With the arrangement shown, the extruder 62 forms a plurality of elongated laterally spaced rows (eg rows) of food products that are placed in continuous ropes 80-82 on a common conveyor 87 on.

[0014] A combined nip and cut assembly is provided downstream of the extruder 62 , indicated generally at 90 , extending across the conve...

Abstract

A crimping and cutting assembly (290) includes a first roller (294) engaged with a second roller (314) including a honeycomb pattern of polygonal crimping and cutting members (330-333). Various transversely spaced, internally filled dough ropes (80-82) are fed between the first and second rollers (294, 314), causing each rope (80-82) to be continuously crimped and cut at longitudinally spaced locations to create multi-sided food products (398-400), specifically polygonal food products (398-400) having two to six crimped and cut sides. The ropes (80-82) can permissibly shift or wander laterallyduring production, resulting in slightly different size or shape food products (398-400), while the honeycomb pattern acts to re-align the ropes (80-82) so as to be tolerant to the ropes (80-82) wandering while still preventing puncturing of the ropes (80-82) which could lead to loss of filling and extended production downtime.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to the field of food preparation, and more particularly to methods and apparatus for crimping and cutting bagged dough products. Background technique [0002] It is known in the food sector to form dough products, such as various pastries, in which the inner bag contains filling material. These types of foods are usually made in one of two ways. The first form includes at least filling, folding and cutting operations. In general, filling material is applied to sections of the dough sheet, the sections are cut and folded onto themselves, and the folded sections are then crimped along the exposed edge portions to form individual bagged dough products. In an alternative form, the dough section is filled after the folding operation, wherein a final pinching operation is performed to seal the opening of the bag. Another known form of manufacture involves co-extruding an outer dough material with an inner filling ma...
