ABSTRACT:
A dough forming machine having a stationary frame with a flat top surface, a continuous belt wrapped around said flat plate having a drive drum at one end and a idler drum at a respective other end, the drive drum being driven for rotation by a motor, and a forming tube above said plate and receiving a section of the belt through the tube to curl the belt into a cylindrical shape. An arcuate plastic pressure plate upstream of said forming tube is elevated a distance from a surface of the continuous belt for receiving dough pieces between the arcuate pressure plate and the continuous belt for forming the dough pieces into a circular shape in the forming tube around a mandrel extending within the tube. At an output end of the forming tube is arranged a rotating table for receiving formed dough pieces, the rotating table driven by a drive belt which receives power from the motor. The rotating table is advantageously foldable downwardly during non-use. Plastic inserts can be provided for being held within the forming tube to selectively decrease the diameter of the forming tube for forming different sized circular dough pieces.
