  • Publication number: 20240391626
    Abstract: A flap-folding module for a food processing line is arranged to receive a food product lying on a sheet of material and to fold a portion of the sheet over the food product. A conveyor system carries the food product and sheet along a product flow path through the module. A gas jet outlet device provides a pulse of gas to raise a leading edge of the sheet, and an edge catch device receives the leading edge, temporarily retaining the leading edge whilst the food product passes beneath, thereby folding a leading portion of the sheet over at least part of the food product. The conveyor system comprises a mid-conveyor section and an upstream conveyor section which is upstream of the mid-conveyor section, and the upstream conveyor section is pivotable relative to the mid-conveyor section about a pivot axis which extends transversely across the product flow path.
