Device for the wet processing of photosensitive materials

摘要

A closed container for wet processing photographic strip or sheet materials such as film or printing paper has a cover piece which rests upon several of the conveying rollers. The cover piece has indentations in its lower surface which correspond to the outer surfaces of the rollers to smoothly engage them with intermediate portions of the cover piece being submerged in the processing liquid. This minimizes the contact of the air in the container with the wet surfaces of the rollers partially submerged in the liquid and inbetween them, which thus minimizes oxidation of the processing baths.
