DEFINITION

Classification: 198/531

(under subclass 530) Apparatus wherein the element is associated with a gravity conveyor section and is shifted from one position to the other as the result of the movement of a conveying element of a power-driven section into a position to receive the flow which results from the shifting of the element. The element may be shifted by direct contact with the conveying element or some other portion of the power-driven section, or the shifting of the element and the movement of the conveying element may be coordinated otherwise (e.g., geared drive, etc.).
