  • Publication number: 20010011503
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for separating and delivering, orderly positioned, stiff folded baked products, such as taco shells, from a first conveyor (1), the baked products on said first conveyor resting on carrier means (6), which are preferably adapted to the shape of the baked products, a relative motion being imparted to the respective baked products (12) in relation to the associated carrier means (6) by a separating means (13) being brought into contact with the baked product, preferably from below, to separate the baked product from the carrier means before it is delivered to a delivery station. According to the invention, the respective baked products (12) are separated from the associated carrier means (6) by the baked product being caused to slide, during its transport motion (7), towards a surface portion (14) of the separating means (13), which surface portion is inclined relative to the transport motion of the carrier means.
