ABSTRACT:
A generally imperforate conveyor belt of articulated design carries a plurality of longitudinally spaced confection carrier assemblies. Each assembly includes an outer table having peripheral guide surfaces for receiving and supporting the sandwich. The table is connected via a rotatable shaft which extends through the belt to an inner sprocket. The sprocket engages a fixed rack as the conveyor passes through a coating station to thereby rotate the sandwich, which is in the path of sprayed chips. The chips are fed from a supply hopper onto a horizontal conveyor and hence to a chute which feeds the chips into a whirling brush which sprays the chips onto the edge of the sandwich. A sandwich squeezing device is positioned upstream of the chip spray, while an air jet disposed downstream of the spray removes unwanted chips from the top cookie surface of the sandwich. The unused chips lying on the conveyor finally drop off the conveyor end and are recycled back to the supply hopper.
