Abstract

Because of bending over towards the middle of the coffin, it is difficult, or even completely impossible to try to take orthogonal (right-angled) shadow-free photographs of the deceased in the coffin using a conventional viewfinder camera held to the eye. According to the invention, the autofocus camera m and light projector o are arranged according to the drawing of Fig. A distanced from one another by 180 DEG on their circumference of and respectively at one end of the rotatably mounted photographic bar L, which can be adjusted in height using the upright (pillar) b and b', can be extended by means of the lever h towards the middle of the coffin via the pull rod i and is arranged capable of being swivelled out at right angles relative to the inclination of the deceased's head, in which case this position is locked by means of a threaded rod d fixed to the stand (tripod). The first step in shooting the photograph is to sight the face of the deceased by means of a beam p from the light projector and for the camera diaphragm beam q to adopt the orthogonal (right-angle) taking position, as determined, by a 180 DEG rotation on the photographic bar L via the cable pull u', after which the position is fixed by locking in the engagement holes z using the cable pull F and spring pin e', and photographing can be carried out at a right angle via the wire release n. <IMAGE>

"Procedure unsL device sur- implementation more difficult photographic recordings from above in the right angle. "

The deceased are generally buried by the funeral home, with the coffin ron case su IPaIl b * w. on ¹ agreement with the Tüauerhaus sometimes remains open and is temporarily stored in the loan chamber of the mourning hall.

In most cases, the course is usually ror der Attended funeral the coffin desk hung up and the coffin for laying out in the cemetery chapel, where sunäehst die Mourning celebration takes place, forever reserved.

This gives the relatives of the deceased the opportunity to have a final farewell until the funeral rom those who have fallen asleep * u can take.

Here, photographic recordings are often made as the last picture memory.

Usually the open coffin stands on more or less high gusts of hole and - roughly in the middle of the loan chamber and.

Photographic recordings are thus made in the conventional manner cut from the side or from the foot of the coffin at a flat angle.

So it is ».B. normally not possible, a better one and shadow-free, in the right angle around the face of the deceased make the recorded front view * u can, this also not then, you would have a special wooden or aluminum frame over the open one Coffin raised, look on it, for example ron here take frontal facial images at right angles * u

because, firstly, this practice would meet with rejection on the part of the funeral home and “another thing would Project already at the technical circumstances and the “u tight timeline of the erection of a scaffold up to aur Funeral b »w. Cremation and probably also cheer at the generally low ceiling height of the loan chamber, but furthermore, the photographer can see with the eye Trigger-ready viewing camera taking into account the recording distance ium Antlit * of the deceased on the one hand and the On the other hand, there is a risk of confusion for the camera lu rerlieren.

Also the elevated point of view, for example, τοπ an "uhilfe stepladder taken does not solve the problem satisfactorily, because τοη always has to be the side or bottom end of the coffin in the bent position b * w. being photographed at an unfavorable angle, a situation that cannot be photographed at the right angle of vision only permitted for admission. Under these abuses the Photographer accordingly to better, right-angled frontal face shots Deceased and he must therefore »inevitably content with recordings that more or less always τοη the side or at an unfavorable flat angle rom the foot of the coffin.

So some rerpublished sources are given, at which are shown examples of recently known deceased people, and those inevitably at an unfavorable angle of view and more or less always τοη from the side photographic portraits have been made. For example at:

Beror the procedure of the invention is explained in more detail, the selection of the camera to be considered should also be explained.

For some time now, cameras have been offered on the international photo market that. via a well-known autofocus system, so either with the help of ultrasound or infrared light beam ■ around the subject when slowly depressing the mostly »Automatically focus extremely precisely with the two-stage release button. In addition, some models are toned infrared autofocus system cameras noetr susät »borrowed with a side Auxiliary measuring beam attached to the ObgektiT, the au «h no * h * ur. Lightening of dark subjects automatically radiates. This auxiliary measuring beam is set in such a way that it can be used together scratched the motir with the camera shutter. '

To carry out ron indicated difficult right-angled Photographs at the open coffin can therefore only be considered with a camera, the one at the inventive sfatir:. '~

First, it automatically focuses.

Second, a built-in flash that triggers automatically.

Thirdly, a built-in auxiliary measuring beam is required Lightening i.e. the face of the deceased automatically radiates and

Fourthly, the film transport of the inserted film in the event of a hoist The camera on the Statir takes over automatically.

The release button of such cameras with an infrared autofoeus - Unfortunately, the system is not equipped with a threaded socket to screw in suitable cable releases, It is necessary to install a device on the camera body that allows you to use an exfebem long Cable release, press the release button slowly * u can see and release.

In addition, the inventive right-angled photographs, if these have been naturally enlarged . in the case of a deceased person, a so-called death mask as a negative should only be removed from the actual face} then designed as a positive bust and in which, for example, the non-moldable head areas such as the scalp hair; the Beard in the reconstruction as a living model -baw. Portrait should be determined.

For the car transport to the mourning hall the relatively heavy iron foot a is usually separated from the actual device and only set up again on the open coffin by pushing the stand column b into the housing a, ^{1 of} the foot au in an upright position. The iron case a ^M , that

is firmly tied to the foot, consists of _; a relatively thick-walled pipe section of a square tube, the inner dimension being dimensioned to such an extent that it can accommodate the static column best made of a square tube made of aluminum and accordingly the entire device. The housing au ¹ 'protrudes a little beyond the surface of the foot a and thus gives the standing stand a good hold, while it is also intended to accommodate the pressing knurled screw a. ¹ '' with a nut thread.

By means of the knurled screw b ¹¹ , the statir columns b and V ", which are lifted into one another, are firmly locked by sewing, so that the device is completely set up and ready for use as shown in Fig. A and Fig. B ..

The inventive method is more difficult to carry out photographic recordings from above in the right angle the following:

For example, in order to take a close-up view of the deceased, the upper statue column V is "or almost completely" into the lower status column seen with the Sehlita b ¹ · ¹ , the position being adjusted by tightening the knurled screw to ' ^| :, which presses firmly on the external wall as shown in Fig. B. Accordingly, see the knurled screw "b ' ^f about the lower end of the Sehlitaes la ^llfl and with a Jfernaufnähme, for example, rom the entire open coffin, the entire available ceiling height of the loan chamber can be used by the upper statue column b' rolling out of the lower statue column Tb is raised, including the lever h, the threaded rod eL,

and the drive cable u ^{v are} raised. This position is again secured with the pressing knurled screw b ^{l: l} , now at the top of the StatiT.

Since the executing funeral home made the head of the Cave has been lifted up on a pillow and rests, resulting in a slight angle of inclination of the face i.e. the forehead - nose - chin plane on the horizontal plane of the resting body, etc. of the coffin τοη generally about twelve degrees, whereby especially this angular position for right-angled faces - b * w. Goose shots of the coffin take into account.

With the help of the fixed "U" -shaped handles a ¹ on the foot a, the device is sucked up to the side and about to the middle of the coffin, for example when a Gesichtsaahaufnähme, the device is brought into position so that the stationary round cross tube β. stands roughly at right angles to the coffin. By means of the long lever h and the attached round swivel and pull rod i, the attached carrier head k and with it the photo bar 1 arranged underneath it, which is rotatably mounted in each case by 9Q and which carries the camera m including the cable release η and the light projector ο, Via the round cross tube c, which guides the swivel rod i in a rotatable manner, extended over the open coffin and swiveled out at a right angle on the same side so that the emitted and still visible light beam ρ of the projector ο in the form of a point is also aligned at right angles to the center of the face is.
