ABSTRACT:
Moveable conveyor guide rails are located on opposite sides of a conveyor which conveys articles, such as beverage bottles. The guide rails are pivotable or otherwise moveable from a first position, where they serve as conventional conveyor guide rails by preventing the articles being conveyed from tipping, rocking, or falling off the sides of the conveyor, to a second position, where the guide rails are concealed by being pivoted or otherwise moved downwardly so that the articles being conveyed on the conveyor can be accessed by a palletizing machine from the sides of the conveyor without obstruction from the guide rails.
