(under the class definition) Apparatus, (1) adapted to be rearranged to perform different functions; or (2) adapted to be altered so as to operate in a different way or change its function or enhance its operation in some way by (a) disassembling the apparatus in some portion and then reassembling the apparatus with the same or different portion, (b) disassembling some portion from the apparatus, or (c) assembling some portion of the apparatus.
(1) Note. The change in the apparatus must be more than merely placing a part in one of a series of holes such as piston controlled vent ports or in general making a change which amounts to only an adjustment such as, for example, adjusting the valve actuating linkage for a motor operated valve.
(2) Note. A part which is disassembled and reversed to present a new wearing surface is included under this definition.
