[0032] The folding laminating device of the utility model embodiment is described below with reference to the accompanying Figure 1 to the accompanying Figure 5 , the folding laminating device has low labor cost, good safety, high folding laminating efficiency and stable and reliable folding laminating action.
[0033] Referring to Figures 1 to 5 , the folding laminating device of the utility model embodiment comprises:

[0035] The folding assembly 200 comprises a translation driving module 210, a lifting driving module 220 and a second conveying belt 230. The second conveying belt 230 is used to drive the dough to realize the forward or reverse conveying movement. The second conveying belt 230 is connected to the lifting driving module 220.

The height of the rolling pin 130 relative to the first conveying belt 110 can be adjusted through the pressure adjusting module 120, so as to flexibly adjust the rolling and extrusion thickness of the dough, which can adapt to the rolling and extrusion requirements of different doughs, can effectively improve the diversity of the objects of the laminating and puffing, the structure of the device is reasonable, the connection between the components is stable and reliable, which ensures the stability and reliability of the device during long-time operation.
