Photosensitive material processing apparatus in use with a solid processing agent.

摘要

A photosensitive material processing apparatus for processing a photosensitive material (P) such as a photographic film and a photographic print in use with a solid processing agent (J). The apparatus includes: a processing tank (3) for processing the photosensitive material (P); a processing agent accommodating chamber (4) for accommodating the solid processing agent; a pump (2) for circulating a processing solution between the processing tank (3) and the processing agent accommodating chamber (4); and a processing agent supply means (10) for supplying the solid processing agent to the processing agent accommodating chamber (4). The processing agent accommodating chamber (4) includes a processing agent dissolving member (4A) which further includes a processing agent support member (5) for supporting the solid processing agent (J). A sectional area of the processing agent support member is increased as it comes to a lower portion of the processing agent supporting member. <IMAGE>
