Feed conveyor for compact portable conveyor

A compact portable conveyor apparatus, the apparatus comprising:

• (a) a base suitable for transport on public roadways and having first and second opposing base ends;
• (b) a primary conveyor pivotably, about a substantially horizontal axis, and rotatably, about a substantially vertical axis, mounted near the first base end, the primary conveyor having a first primary conveyor end disposed near the first base end;
• (c) a feed conveyor having:
• (i) a pivoting segment pivotably mounted to the base near the second base end and disposed at least partially beneath a hopper;
• and
• (ii) an extending segment longitudinally-movably mounted to the pivoting segment and extending toward the first primary conveyor end;
• and
• (d) at least one arm mounted to the base, the extending segment and a prime mover for, upon actuation of the prime mover, displacing the extending segment longitudinally relative to the pivoting segment and simultaneously pivoting the pivoting segment relative to the base.
