パートを混合溶解して処理液としたものを処理槽に供給
するミキサー方式であったからいろいろ欠点があった。In order to supplement such deterioration and to carry out a stable treatment, a treatment agent has been conventionally replenished. However, there have been various drawbacks since the conventional method is a mixer system in which a liquid processing agent is replenished or a processing solution is prepared by mixing and dissolving processing agent parts to supply a processing solution to a processing tank.

棄処分が問題となるとか、処理液状態での保存性が良く
なって、保存中に劣化が進行するなどの欠点があった。For example, when a liquid processing agent is used for replenishment, there is replenishment in a completely used liquid state. In this case, since the replenishment amount per unit replenishment cycle is large, the replenishment processing agent storage space is large. Since it is large or the storage container uses a resin container to ensure safety, disposal of the empty container becomes a problem, and the storability in the processing liquid state improves, and it deteriorates during storage. There was a defect such as progress.

置に占めるスペースが大きいことなどの欠点は大きい。On the other hand, in the mixer system in which the processing agent parts are mixed and dissolved into a processing solution, each processing agent part has the advantages of maintaining the storability and a relatively small storage space. It is troublesome to handle and requires a mixer for mixing and dissolving, and the drawbacks such as the cost of the mixer and the large space occupied in the apparatus are large.

た。The processing bath 1 contains a processing liquid and directly processes the photosensitive material F with the processing liquid. The processing liquid is not necessarily of the type in which the photosensitive material F is immersed in the processing liquid in the processing bath. Good. That is, the term "processing tank" also includes a storage tank that supplies the processing liquid to the processing section related to the processing of the photosensitive material.

取る機構である。As shown in the configuration diagram of the replenishing means and the processing section in FIG. 3, the replenishing means 2 is located above the processing tank 1 and comprises a receiving / holding section 6 and a take-up / falling section 7, and the processing agent that has fallen further falls. Associated with and inside the process tank is a holding and filtering means 8 which surrounds and holds until dissolved. The receiving and holding unit 6 receives the treatment agent package 50 (see FIG. 4) in which the treatment agent individual packages are continuous or the treatment agent container 5 that accommodates the treatment agent package 50, and is a portion of the packaging material bonding portion ( The boundary portion 101 is a portion that is temporarily stored and held so that the processing agent can be peeled off and dropped. The winding / falling unit 7 is a mechanism in which the processing agent is dropped from between the two packaging materials that have been peeled off and the tip of the packaging material is gripped and rolled up.

処理剤が付着することがないから処理ムラを生じること
がない。Next, the treatment agent dropped as described above enters the treatment tank 1, but enters the portion surrounded by the holding / filtering means 8, so that the treatment agent in a non-dissolved state does not move to another. Therefore, since the solid processing agent does not inadvertently adhere to the photosensitive material F being processed, processing unevenness does not occur.

Alternatively, since the treatment liquid is allowed to pass through in a porous sheet body, before the treatment agent T is introduced, it is of the same quality as the treatment liquid in the treatment tank 1 and has the same treatment capacity. . Therefore, when the treatment progresses and the treatment capacity of the treatment liquid in the treatment tank 1 is lowered, the treatment liquid having the lowered treatment capacity is also present in the holding and filtering means 8.

る。These figures show a situation in which the processing agent container 5 is peeled off and the processing agent T is dropped.
10 is a non-breathable packaging material having a bulge portion 501 obtained by partially deforming a sheet-like material, and the treatment agent T is a treatment agent package.
Since the bulge portion 501 is stored in the bulge portion 501, the peeling is performed as a positional relationship in which the bulge portion 501 is on the upper side in order to drop it by its own weight. Therefore, the flat sheet-shaped packaging material 11 is
Peeling is preferably performed in a positional relationship of being downward or obliquely downward. However, when it is to be peeled substantially horizontally to the left and right for the convenience of the configuration, the bulge portion 501 has the slope 5 on the side cylinder portion.
With 02, it is possible to encourage the processing agent to drop by its own weight.
