Apparatus and system for producing layered food products

A system for producing a layered food product, the system comprising:

• a frame configured to support the system, the frame including a plurality of vertical support shafts, a rod, and a base;
• a plurality of molding units configured to apply pressure to a plurality of food layers, each of the plurality of molding units including:
• an apparatus having a body including:
• an external surface including:
• a plurality of external, upper walls tapering at an uppermost surface, wherein the plurality of external, upper walls connect to form a pyramid;
• and
• a plurality of external, lower walls;
• an internal surface including:
• a plurality of internal, upper walls having a first lining configured to shape the plurality of food layers, and a second lining configured to seal the plurality of food layers;
• and
• a plurality of internal, lower walls terminating in a geometric edge, the geometric edge configured to cut the plurality of food layers in a shape corresponding to the geometric edge;
• and
• a spring operably connected to the apparatus, the spring configured to move a molding unit of the plurality of molding units into an active position and a retracted position;
• a plank operably connecting the spring to the apparatus, the plank configured to apply pressure to the apparatus;
• a conveyor belt configured to transport the plurality of food layers and the layered food product;
• and
• a collection bin configured to store the layered food product.

An apparatus for producing a layered food product, the apparatus comprising:

• a handle assembly configured to apply pressure to a plurality of food layers, the handle assembly including:
• a U-shaped rod configured for grasping by a user;
• and
• a crossbar operably connected to the rod;
• a body configured to move relative to the handle assembly, the body including:
• an external surface including:
• a plurality of external, upper walls tapering at a peak, the peak maintaining contact with the crossbar, wherein the plurality of external, upper walls connect to form a pyramid;
• and
• a plurality of external, lower walls forming sloped sides;
• an internal surface including:
• a plurality of internal, upper walls having a first lining configured to shape the plurality of food layers and a second lining configured to seal the plurality of food layers;
• and
• a plurality of internal, lower walls terminating at a square edge, the square edge configured to cut the plurality of food layers in a shape corresponding to the geometric edge,
• wherein applying pressure to the handle assembly enables the body to:
• shape the plurality of food layers into a pyramid;
• seal the plurality of food layers;
• and
• cut the plurality of food layers, producing the layered food product.
