<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a cartridge for a photographic processing agent in which erroneous loading prevention patterns for preventing erroneous loading in an automatic developing machine can be easily set in a larger number. <P>SOLUTION: A recess 26 is formed on the outer side face of a container 12 (12A, 12B, 12C) for a photographic processing agent so that for the purpose of housing the containers 12 for photographic processing agents in a storage box 14, a plurality of (four) kinds of housing directions with different dispositions of the recesses 26 can be selected. The storage box 14 is provided with openings 80, 82 (84) corresponding to the recesses 26 of the containers 12 housed in specified housing directions. Thus, the recesses and openings form a first fitting part 86 and a second fitting part 88 to which the respective projections for preventing erroneous loading formed in an automatic developing machine can be fitted in a cartridge 10 for the photographic processing agent. The number and disposition of the fitting parts can be varied by varying the housing direction of each container 12 for a photographic processing agent and consequently, by varying the number and disposition of the openings of the storage box 14 corresponding to the recesses 26. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI</p> |
