ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a center-aligning apparatus for fusiform bread dough pieces such as rolled-up croissant dough pieces. In this invention an upstream conveyor and a downstream conveyor located below and adjacent the upstream conveyor are provided. Between the two conveyors and adjacent the upstream conveyor, a pair of concave rollers is arranged. The rolled-up dough piece from the upstream conveyor is deposited on the concave rollers to have its center aligned with the gap between the rollers. Also, a pair of shutters is mounted below the concave rollers to stably deposit the dough piece on the downstream conveyor. This invention enables the dough piece to advance in alignment with the control line of the downstream conveyor.
