DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a guide path for guiding a photographic photosensitive material by forming a part of the transport path in a transport path of a long sheet of photographic photosensitive material, and separating from the transport path. A loop guide that can be switched to a loop forming position that allows the photographic light-sensitive material to form a loop outside the transport path, and the photographic light-sensitive material when the loop guide is in the loop forming position. The present invention relates to a photographic light-sensitive material transport device for a photographic processing machine, which is provided with a contact prevention member which enters the inside of the loop and prevents the photographic light-sensitive materials from contacting each other.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A photographic photosensitive material transporting apparatus for a photographic processing machine is an apparatus for transporting a long sheet-like photographic photosensitive material such as a photographic film or photographic paper in various photographic processing machines. In the transport path, the transport downstream end of the photographic photosensitive material is stopped and the subsequent portion of the photographic photosensitive material is transported to adjust the transport speed difference and processing timing in each part of the photographic processing machine. Thus, a loop of a photographic light-sensitive material is often formed. In order to form such a loop of the photographic photosensitive material, a part of the transport path is configured to guide the photographic material, and the photographic material is separated from the transport path to form a loop outside the transport path. A loop guide is provided that can be switched to a loop forming posture that allows the photographic light-sensitive material to be transported. When the conveyance downstream end of the photographic light-sensitive material is stopped, the loop guide is set to the loop forming posture, and the subsequent portion of the photographic light-sensitive material is conveyed. The photographic light-sensitive material protrudes out of the conveying path from the installation position of the loop guide to form a loop.

Further, when the loop of the photographic light-sensitive material becomes large to some extent, the inner surface of the loop may come into contact with the photographic light-sensitive material due to its stiffness, which may cause damage.
Therefore, in order to prevent the occurrence of such a flaw, when the loop guide is in the loop forming posture, a contact prevention member that enters the inside of the loop of the photographic photosensitive material and prevents the photographic photosensitive material from contacting with each other is provided. Be provided. Conventionally, as shown in FIG. 8, for example, a roller unit 400 that is oscillated by a solenoid is provided as the contact preventing member, and the photographic photosensitive material detection sensor 401 detects that the loop of the photographic photosensitive material has increased to some extent. Then, the roller unit 400 is operated by operating the solenoid, as shown in FIG.
(B) was switched to the posture shown in FIG. 8 (b) to prevent the photosensitive materials from contacting each other.

[0004]

However, in the above-described conventional configuration, although the formation of the loop is detected by the sensor, the actual operation of forming the loop and the movement of the member for preventing contact between the photosensitive materials are performed. Is not accurate, and it may not always be possible to prevent contact between the photographic materials. The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to more accurately prevent contact between photographic light-sensitive materials when forming a loop of photographic light-sensitive materials for adjusting a conveying speed or the like. Is to do.

[0005]

According to the first aspect of the present invention, the contact preventing member interlocks with the posture change of the loop guide from the guiding posture to the loop forming posture.
It gets inside the loop of the photographic material. That is, since the loop of the film is formed in accordance with a change in the posture of the loop guide from the guiding posture to the loop forming posture, the operation of the contact preventing member is operated by interlocking the operation of the contact preventing member with the operation of the loop guide. Correspond exactly to the film loop forming operation. Thus, when a film loop is formed to adjust the transport speed, it is possible to more accurately prevent contact between films.

In addition, with the above-described structure, the contact preventing member is supported so as to press the photographic material against the loop guide when the loop guide is in the guide posture, and the loop guide is guided. When the posture is switched to the loop forming posture, the contact preventing member enters the inside of the loop of the photographic material due to the pressing force. Therefore, with regard to the interlocking of the contact prevention member and the loop guide, the contact prevention member presses the film against the loop guide, with a simple configuration that only supports the contact prevention member,
The contact prevention member and the loop guide can be linked, and the configuration of the device can be simplified.

[0007] With the above configuration, the contact preventing member presses the photographic photosensitive material against the loop guide by the urging means when the loop guide is in the guiding posture. Therefore, compared with the case where the photographic photosensitive material is pressed against the loop guide only by the weight of the contact preventing member, the contact preventing member and the loop guide can be linked with each other more reliably by the action of the urging means.

[0010] With the above configuration, the contact preventing member is provided with an upstream contact preventing member disposed on the upstream side in the film transport direction and a downstream contact member disposed on the downstream side in the film transport direction. The photographic photosensitive material is pressed against the loop guide by a cooperative operation of the upstream contact prevention member and the downstream contact prevention member.
In order to prevent the films in a loop from coming into contact with each other, the width of the contact prevention member in the film transport direction and the depth of the contact prevention member entering the loop must be a reasonable size required for contact prevention. However, as described above, by cooperating with the upstream contact prevention member and the downstream contact prevention member, the photographic photosensitive material is configured to be pressed against the loop guide. Can be secured with a simple configuration in the film transport direction.

In addition, with the configuration of the fifth aspect, the loop guide and the contact preventing member are interlocked by the mechanical linkage mechanism, and as the loop guide shifts from the guiding posture to the loop forming posture, It enters the inside of the loop of the photographic material and retreats from the loop of the photographic material as it shifts from the loop forming position to the guiding position. That is, by interlocking the contact prevention member and the loop guide with the mechanical linking mechanism, the interlocking of both becomes more reliable, and the contact between the films forming the loop can be more reliably prevented. .

Further, by providing the structure of the sixth aspect, the contact preventing member is provided with a rotating member which is rotated by the contact with the photographic material at the contact portion with the photographic material. When the member comes into contact with the film, the rotating member rotates to prevent damage to the film due to contact with the contact preventing member. In addition, with the configuration according to the seventh aspect, the loop guide is swung about a swing axis parallel to the lateral width direction of the photographic light-sensitive material being conveyed, and cuts into the guide posture and the loop formation posture. Be replaced. Therefore, it is possible to stably form a loop of the film as compared with a case where the loop guide is swung around an axis parallel to the film transport direction. Compared with a configuration in which the contact prevention member is moved in parallel in the approaching / separating direction, the switching operation between the guide posture of the contact prevention member and the loop formation posture can be performed with a simple configuration.

Further, by providing the above-described structure, the photographic light-sensitive material is transported in such a manner that the emulsion side of the photographic film is outside the loop. In general, when the emulsion surfaces of a photographic film are in contact with each other, scratches are unlikely to occur even if the emulsion surfaces are slightly in contact with each other, but are easily damaged when the surfaces on the opposite side of the emulsion surface, that is, the base surfaces of the film are in contact with each other. Becomes Therefore, when it is necessary to transport the photographic film in such a position that the emulsion side of the photographic film is outside the loop of the photographic film, it is particularly effective to prevent the contact of the film as described above.
