(under subclass 523) Apparatus wherein the system includes means whereby one or more of the conveyor sections are adjustable (e.g., repositionable) relative to one another for a reason having to do with a nonoperative mode of the system (e.g., for placing the system in a condition for being stored or being moved to another location, for moving a component to a nontraffic-obstructing position, etc.); in general, this subclass involves structure whereby the system may be made more compact.
