Handle construction for self-developing cameras

摘要

A folding handle for photographic cameras of the type in which a film sheet assembly is withdrawn manually from the camera housing to effect spreading of processing fluid over the area of the sheet material during such withdrawal. The handle is connected to the camera housing on the end thereof opposite from the end at which the film is withdrawn in a manner to partially restrain relative rotational movement of the handle and the camera housing along the axis of film withdrawal but to allow freedom of rotation between the handle and the housing on all other axes. The handle is provided with a rectangular bail and is foldable to the recessed position in the camera housing during periods of nonuse.
