Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a photosensitive material provided with a processing solution container for silver halide photographic light-sensitive material, which prevents leakage and odor leakage of the processing solution for silver halide photographic light-sensitive material and is easy to replace or discard. The present invention relates to a material processing device.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art As a light-sensitive material processing apparatus for processing exposed silver halide photographic light-sensitive materials, for example, silver halide photographic light-sensitive materials are continuously conveyed to respective processing tanks for color development, bleaching, fixing and stabilization. There is something to process. Processing solutions for these silver halide photographic light-sensitive materials (hereinafter referred to as processing solutions)
In order to prevent the processing solution from being deteriorated in the processing of the silver halide photographic light-sensitive material or the processing agent component being consumed to deteriorate the finish quality of the silver halide photographic light-sensitive material, a processing tank containing A treatment liquid container storing the treatment liquid is connected, and the treatment liquid is supplied from the treatment liquid container to the treatment tank by driving a replenishment pump.

This processing liquid is supplied, for example, in a dissolution tank by adding water to several kinds of liquid (powder) called a kit composed of a concentrated liquid or a powder to dilute and dissolve it to prepare a use liquid state. , The processing liquid in the used liquid state was transferred to the processing liquid container, or it was diluted or dissolved in the replenishment tank provided in the photosensitive material processing device, but the processing liquid was transferred or the processing liquid container was replaced. At the time of processing, leakage or spill of processing liquid may occur, or leakage of odor may occur, which may come into contact with workers' hands, etc.
There is a problem that the photosensitive material processing device is corroded, and further, a crystal substance is attached to the photosensitive material processing device, thereby damaging the installation environment of the photosensitive material processing device.

Further, with the spread of a small photosensitive material processing apparatus called a minilab, the handling becomes an important factor especially in an ultra-small photosensitive material processing apparatus in which a negative developing machine and a printer paper developing machine are integrated. A method has been proposed in which the processing liquid contained in a processing liquid container, which is a so-called back-in-box, is exchanged for each processing liquid container without performing dilution or dissolution.

[0005]

The method of exchanging the treatment liquid for each treatment liquid container is uneconomical unless the treatment liquid stored in the treatment liquid container is completely supplied to the treatment tank. If the replenishment pump is run dry when there is no processing solution in the processing solution container, it may cause a malfunction. Therefore, it is conceivable to provide a detection device for detecting the remaining amount of the processing liquid in the processing liquid container, but since the processing liquid is exchanged together with the processing liquid container, the detection device for the remaining liquid amount is installed in the processing liquid container. It is difficult to provide and the processing liquid container may not be reused, which is not economical.

Therefore, a method has been devised for issuing a residual amount alarm depending on the weight of the processing liquid container and the operating time of the replenishing pump for supplying the processing liquid to the processing tank. Due to variations and differences in replenishment pump accuracy, an alarm is not issued even if the processing liquid in the processing liquid container is exhausted, or an alarm is output even if the processing liquid remains. Cause a failure,
There was a waste of processing liquid.

The present invention solves the above-mentioned drawbacks, and is for a silver halide photographic light-sensitive material capable of accurately warning the remaining amount of the processing liquid in a replaceable processing liquid container for a silver halide photographic light-sensitive material. An object of the present invention is to provide a photosensitive material processing apparatus including a processing liquid container.
