PURPOSE:To obtain an optimum squeezing effect with a good tight contact characteristic and to minimize the carry over of a processing liquid by using mirror-faced rollers to form squeeze rollers provided to a processing section for a photosensitive material thereby providing prescribed hardness to the rollers with the simple constitution and setting the roller surfaces to the specular surfaces having accuracy. CONSTITUTION:Bearings 16, 17 of the squeeze roller 15 positioned in the upper part are pressed downward in the upper part thereof by ends 22a, 23a of nip springs 22, 23. The springs 22, 23 are supported by lock pins 24, 25 and the energizing force for downward pressing is exerted to the ends of the spring 22, 23 by positioning pins 26, 27. The lower squeeze roller 15 is rotated as a driving shaft 29 rotates. The squeeze rollers 15 are so constituted that the upper roller is rotated cooperatively by the rotation of the lower roller. The rollers 15 are constituted of the specular-faced rollers. Each of the specular-faced rollers is formed by polishing the inside peripheral surface of a metallic pipe, subjecting the polished inside surface to chrome plating to form a mold having the specular surface, pouring rubber stock of fluid type into such mold and curing the rubber. |
