  • Patent number: 4668174
    Abstract: An apparatus for the dividing, rounding and panning of doughballs. The apparatus includes a divider and rounder for dividing and rounding four doughballs simultaneously and an infeed gate having a central section and two outer sections for controlling the dispensing of the doughballs from two inner and two outer dough chutes into an apparatus for panning. For smaller doughballs and pans which accommodate four doughballs in a row, the three-section gate is operable to function as a unitary gate to dispense the four doughballs from the chutes at the same time. For larger doughballs and pans which accommodate only two doughballs in a row, the method of the present invention includes the dividing and rounding of four doughballs and the dispensing of the doughballs from the chutes two at a time.
