Claim 7:
8. A machine for forming food doughs for making bases for pizza and the like, comprising:
a dough supporting diaphragm, which is at least partially deformable;
a cover or plate adapted to be moved between an idle position, in which it is raised above the diaphragm, and an operating position, in which it is set against the diaphragm, so as to compress a mass of dough laid thereon, and vice versa;
means for deforming the diaphragm, operating on that side of the latter which is opposite to the side whereon the dough has been laid,
wherein the plate is supported by an articulated arm, which can be actuated manually and/or automatically in order to move the plate into said operating and idle positions,
wherein the plate comprises a fitting for connecting to the arm, and a crown adjustably associated with the fitting,
wherein the crown is associated with the fitting by means of a threaded connection, which allows for fine adjustment of the distance between the bottom face of the plate and the diaphragm when the plate is in the lowered operating condition.
