ABSTRACT:
Doughnut frying apparatus has a conveyor extending lengthwise of a hot oil tank and provided with flights which provide spaces, each space accommodating a transverse series of floating doughnuts. Midway of their travel, the doughnuts are turned over by a device having a transverse shaft provided with diametrically opposed receivers. Each receiver has leading vane and trailing transverse vane with the two vanes defining an acute angle. The device is turned by the conveyor with each receiver having a first position in which the leading vane is above and the trailing vane is below the conveyor space next to the shaft on the pick-up side thereof and a second position in which the trailing vane is above and the leading vane below the conveyor space next to the shaft on the release side thereof, the leading vane having caught the doughnuts picked up by the trailing vane as they toppled forwardly therefrom and lowered the turned over doughnuts into the hot fat.
