Abstract

PURPOSE:To surely develop and film already photographed even when a developing switch is forgot being depressed by automatically developing the film already photographed when it is a fixed time. CONSTITUTION:A file driving part 36 is driven and an object is reduced by a photographing lens to be photographed on the film. Then, a developing switch 42 is turned on, and the film photographed hitherto is sent from a buffer chamber to a developing part to be developed. When a clock circuit 37 shows the fixed time, the photographed film is automatically sent to the developing part and developed even though the switch 42 is not depressed. Thus, the development is surely performed even when the developing switch is forgot being depressed and the work goes on favorably without hindering the routine.

Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] <Industrial Application Field> The present invention sequentially photographs image information on microfilm,
The present invention relates to an image recording device such as a processor camera that develops photographed microfilm.

<Conventional technology> With conventional processor cameras, when you want to develop microfilm you have taken, you either press the development switch to start the development process, or the process starts automatically when the buffer chamber is full. Development was carried out by either of the following methods.

<Problems to be Solved by the Invention> However, bills, etc. taken during banking operations, etc. must be developed and checked at a fixed time, and the bills, etc. must be taken to a clearing house. However, when I'm busy with work, I sometimes end up taking pictures but accidentally forget to develop them.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of the problems of the prior art described above, it is an object of the present invention to provide an image recording apparatus that does not cause the development of photographed film to be forgotten.

Means for Solving the Problems> In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention provides an image processing unit that has a photographing section for photographing a subject on film and a developing section for developing the photographed film, and also has a built-in clock circuit. The recording apparatus is configured to automatically develop the photographed film at a certain fixed time.

<Function> By providing the image recording apparatus having the above configuration with a clock circuit, even if the developing switch is forgotten to be pressed, the development of the @shaded film is reliably performed.

<Example> An example of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. 1 to 3.

FIG. 1 shows a schematic configuration diagram of an image recording device (processor camera). In the figure, Δ is a photographing section, and B is a developing section. In the photographing section A, 1 is a paper feeding plate on which a sheet-like object S is placed, 2a and 2b are paper feeding and separating rollers, and 3 and 4 are pairs of nip rollers arranged across the exposure section, respectively. 5 G, i A pair of transparent parallel glasses for holding the subject S between them as an exposure section; 6 a stacker for storing the exposed subject S; 7 a lamp for illuminating the subject S in the exposure section; 8 9 is a slit arranged in front of the exposure section, 9 is a photographing lens, and 10 is a shutter. Reference numeral 11 denotes a supply reel for the film F. A guide roller 12, a capstan roller 13 for driving the film serving as the photographing position, and a pinch roller 14 are sequentially arranged along the film transport path. A feeding roller 16 and a discharge roller 17 are arranged in a buffer chamber 15 for temporarily storing the film before being transferred to the developing section B.
A cutter 18 is provided for cutting.

On the other hand, in the developing section B, 21 is a pair of film transport rollers for transporting the photographed film F discharged from the @shadow section A, 22 is a developer tank having a developing processing transport roller 22a, and 23 is a fixing processing roller. A fixing liquid tank having a transport roller 523a, 24 a washing water tank having a washing processing transport roller 24a, 25 a heat press machine for drying the film provided on the discharge side of the washing water tank 24, 26 a nip roller, and 27 a finished film. These take-up reels are arranged sequentially along the film transport path.

Reference numeral 28 denotes a liquid temperature detector such as a thermistor, which is a liquid temperature detecting means provided in the liquid of the developer tank 22. Reference numeral 29 denotes a liquid temperature detector such as a thermistor provided in the outer bottom of the developer tank 22. This is a heating means such as a heater for heating.

In this embodiment with the above configuration, the sheet-like object S is sequentially separated one by one by the paper feed roller 2a and the separation roller 2b and fed, and the parallel glass 5 of the exposure section is moved by a conveying means such as a belt (not shown). After passing through, it is discharged to the stacker 6.

On the other hand, the film F is transported by the cab stun port 13 at a speed synchronized with the reduction ratio of the photographic lens 9 relative to the object transport speed. At this time, the illumination lamp 7
After passing through the slit 8, the image of the object illuminated by the slit is exposed to the film F on the capstan roller 13 via the photographic lens 9. At this time, shutter 10
is opened, and a latent image of the subject S is recorded on the film F.

The photographed film F is sent to the developing section B after being stored in the buffer chamber 15 in a required amount.

In the developing section B, each culm is subjected to development, fixing, and water washing, and then dried to form a finished film.

Next, FIG. 2 shows a block diagram of a control system that controls the operation of this embodiment.

In the same figure, 31 is a CPU, ROM32°RAN3
3. The counter display 34 and the I/F section 35 are connected to each other. The 1/F section 35 includes a film drive section 36.
1 Clock circuit (RTC) 37° lamp control section 38. Sensor 39. Film feed switch 40. Counter reset switch 41, developing switch 42, and subject drive section 4
3 are connected to each other.

The operation of this embodiment with the above configuration will be explained according to the flowchart of FIG.

First, after turning on a power switch (not shown), the CPU 31 performs initial settings using a program stored in the ROM 32 in step (3). As a result, the lamp 7 is turned on and the subject drive section 43 is activated, so that the subject S can be photographed at any time. When the subject S is transported and detected by the sensor 39 in step (2), the film drive unit 36 is driven, the photographic lens 9 reduces the subject S, and the photographed object is photographed on the film F.

Further, if the film feed switch 40 is turned on in step (2), the film F is fed quickly. When the counter reset switch 41 is turned on in step (2), the contents of the counter display 34 are cleared. When the developing switch 42 is turned on in step (2), the film F that has been photographed so far is sent from the buffer chamber 15 to the developing section B, where it is developed, cut, and comes out.

Next, in step (2), when the clock circuit 37 reaches a certain time (for example, 3:30 PM), the photographed film F is automatically transferred to the developing section B without having to press the developing switch 42.
It is sent to the machine, cut by a cutter 18, and then comes out.

<Effects of the Invention> As explained above, the present invention has a built-in clock circuit to automatically develop the photographed film at a certain fixed time. Even if you forget, the development will be done reliably, which has the effect of allowing you to work smoothly without interfering with your daily work.
