Device for handling photographic film units in disc form

摘要

The device for handling photographic film units in disc form, consisting of a circular film ring and a thicker boss, connected rotationally fast to the latter, with a central bore, a plurality of film units being strung on a carrier rod and secured against rotation and displacement relative to the carrier rod, exhibits a series of mutually adjacent containers (42) containing different processing liquids, a transport device to convey the carrier rods with the film units from one container into the next and a respective drive device (61) in each container to rotate the individual inserted carrier rods. In this case, transport belts (43) extending on both sides of and above the containers (42) are provided, to which at intervals mutually opposite levers (25) are articulated, which carry at their free ends receiving elements for the carrier rods (30) and are guided in cranks (52) shaped out at the side walls (41) parallel to the direction of transport (7). At the free ends of the levers (25), cams cooperating with the cranks (52) are fitted. <IMAGE>
