AUTOMATIC CONTAINING DEVICE FOR PROCESSED SESITIVE MATERIAL IN AUTOMATIC DEVELOPING MACHINE OR THE LIKE

摘要

PURPOSE:To save manpower by containing multiple processed films automatically into a tray in order of processing. CONSTITUTION:A travelling table 8 is advanced at the speed equal to that of a conveyor belt 6 by a motor 17 synchronized with a motor driving an automatic developing machine 2 and contains a film 4 into a tray 7 when the leading end of the film 4 arrives at the inner front end of the tray 7 upon lapse of a prescribed time after the detectin of the leading end of the film 4 by a film detector 20. At the same instant when the overall length of the film 4 is contained, the motor 17 is run backward at a high speed by the command of the detector 20, by which the table 8 is retreated quickly and stops when its rear surface abuts on a limit switch 21, thereby resetting to the home position. The multiple films 4 discharged by the reiteration of such operation are contained superposedly in order of processing from below in the tray 7.
