Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial field of application] The present invention relates to a print receiving bag used in a receiving machine for receiving development and printing of a film that has been photographed.

[Conventional technology]

The photographed film is brought to the photo lab for development and printing for ordering. In this case, in general, a clerk manually enters the date, the name of the orderer, the number of prints, etc. on the reception slip and gives the copy slip to the orderer.

In order to improve the efficiency of such print acceptance, a print acceptance machine capable of accepting film prints has been considered (Japanese Patent Application No. 60-260865). With such a reception machine, it is difficult to make correspondence between the film and the order number when the received film is stored in the box and transported to the development and printing place in a lump, so many films that store the order number are stored. It is preferable to use the print reception bag corresponding to each order number.

[Problems to be solved by the invention]

If this reception bag is made of a flexible material such as cloth, it is convenient because it does not take up much space for storage and handling when the film is not housed.
However, if the flexible structure is used, the intermediate portion may be bent during the film storing operation, which may hinder the loading of the film, or the alignment of a large number of receiving bags may become uncertain.

In consideration of the above facts, an object of the present invention is to obtain a print receiving bag which maintains a desired shape in the print receiving machine and ensures a film storing operation even when the print receiving bag has a flexible structure.

[Means for solving problems]

The present invention is a print reception bag for accommodating a film to be loaded into a reception machine for receiving prints in a reception machine, and a flexible bag having an opening formed in a part thereof, and a middle part of which is connected to each other at both ends thereof. A pair of caps that generate a close biasing force and are respectively attached to the opening edges of the flexible bag;
A weight that is attached to the vicinity of the bottom of the flexible bag with the longitudinal direction of the opening as its longitudinal direction, and that maintains the shape of the bottom of the flexible bag in the reception machine in the same shape as the shape near the opening in the closed state. And a weight.

[Action]

Therefore, in the present invention, when the vicinity of the opening of the flexible bag is supported and hung in the reception machine, the weight near the bottom part hangs down the bottom part of the flexible bag due to its own weight and the opening part of the flexible bag is also suspended. Maintains a shape similar to the shape in the vicinity of the opening when closed. Therefore, there is no shape defect due to the lower part of the bag being bent or wrapped around the mouthpiece part, and when opening force is applied to the mouthpiece from the reception machine, the flexible bag will surely open the inlet and secure the film to be loaded. Will be able to house.

The separation arm 104 has a distal end as a separation piece 104A protruding toward the reception bag 44. When the separation arm 104 moves together with the base aligning bracket 102 toward the accumulated reception bag 44, the top end of the separation piece 104A becomes the maximum. Front row reception bag 44
It enters between A and the reception bag 44 in the next row, and separates only the reception bag 44A in the front row.

The tip end of the stopper supporting piece 106 projects in parallel with the separating piece 104A, but is arranged closer to the receiving bag 44 than the inclined piece 102A. This stopper support piece 106
A rhombus stopper 112 is pivotally supported by a pin 110 at the tip of the. The diamond-shaped stopper 112 has a tension coil spring 114 at one end which is interposed between the tension-shaped coil spring 114 and the intermediate portion of the stopper support piece 106, and is rotated so that the upper end thereof faces the receiving bag 44 in response to this biasing force. . However, the bending protrusion 10 provided at the tip of the stopper supporting piece 106
The amount of rotation is limited by 6A.

Therefore, the diamond-shaped stopper 112 is arranged in the moving direction (arrow A direction) of the receiving bag 44 rather than the inclined piece 102A, and the tip of the diamond-shaped stopper 112 corresponds to the hinge fitting 54 as shown in FIG. , The front side reception bag 44A before being separated by the separation piece 104A, and the reception bag 4A.
The movement in the direction of arrow A due to the weight of 4A is prevented. However, when the separating arm 104 moves in the direction of arrow B, the tip of the diamond-shaped stopper 112 moves to the vicinity of the guide rod 42 with the separating arm 104 separating the frontmost receiving bag 44A, and together with the guide rod 42, the hinge fitting 54. The reception bag 44A in the front row, which has entered the recess 54 and is separated, can be further moved in the arrow A direction by its own weight.

The middle portion of the second stopper 108 is bent at a right angle, and serves as a receiving surface 108A arranged along the arrow B direction. When the receiving surface 108A moves in the direction of the arrow B, the separating piece 104
A, the reception bags 44A in the front row separated by the diamond stopper 112 and released from the diamond stopper 112 are supported. However, this receiving surface 108A
When the second stopper 108 moves together with the separating arm 104 and the stopper supporting piece 106 in the direction opposite to the arrow B direction, the reception bag 44A in the front row supported by the second stopper 108 is released and further moved in the arrow A direction. And the length is such that it can be dropped under its own weight.

The guide pin 42 has a stopper pin 118 at a portion further away in the direction of arrow A than the corresponding portion of the second stopper 108.
Is protruding upward. These stopper pins 118 are temporarily supported by the second stopper 108 and correspond to the bottom surface of the recessed portion 56 of the reception bag 44A in the front row that is opened, and temporarily stop the reception bag 44A.

Below the opening block 94, a screw 1 is attached to the support plate 98.
A lifting block 122 mounted at 20 is arranged. The lifting block 122 is provided with an inclined surface 124 corresponding to the hinge metal fitting 54 of the reception bag 44, and when moving in the direction of the arrow B, comes into contact with the hinge metal fitting 54 of the front reception bag 44A stopped by the stopper pin 118, It has a role of lifting the hinge fitting 54 from the guide rod 42 along the slope 124. In this lifting block 122, both ends of a holding plate 126, which is sandwiched between the lifting plate 122 and the support plate 98, project closer to the reception bag 44A than the slope 124, and the reception bag 4 is being lifted by the slope 124.
4A does not shift from the slope 124.

The lifting block 122 has a support surface 122A formed at the upper end of the slope 124 so that the hinge fitting 54 lifted on the slope 124 can be supported.

The opening block 94 has a guide groove 128 that opens toward the reception bag 44. The guide groove 128 is formed by the hinge fitting 54 of the reception bag 44A supported on the support surface 122A.
Corresponding to the above, when moving in the direction of arrow B, the hinge fittings 54 of the reception bag 44A are driven toward each other at the V-shaped central portion of the guide groove 128 so as to approach each other as shown in FIGS. Can be opened. The V-shaped central portion of the guide groove 128 corresponds to a position slightly advanced in the direction of arrow A from the mouthpiece 48 of the reception bag 44A temporarily stopped by the stopper pin 118.

A roller 130 is attached to the L-shaped plate 92 at the upper part of the opening block 94.
Is rotatably supported and corresponds to the protrusion 62 of the reception bag 44A,
A force is applied to separate the mouthpiece bracket 50 to which the protrusion 62 is attached from the mouthpiece bracket 52, so that the inlet of the reception bag 44A is surely opened.
Therefore, as shown in FIG. 1, the opening blocks 94, 9
These rollers 130 arranged above 6 are arranged such that their mounting positions in the direction of the arrow A are displaced from each other.

Further, as shown in FIG. 1, when the bottom surface of the guide groove 128 and the reception bag 44A correspond to each other, this is the open position,
This open position is arranged so as to move in the direction of arrow A from the stopper pin 118. Therefore, when the pair of opening blocks 94 and 96 are separated from each other, the base 48 is slanted.
Although it slides down and is mounted again on the guide rod 42, in this state, the mouthpiece 48 has already passed over the stopper pin 118 and can slide down in the direction of arrow A by its own weight.

In the guide grooves 128 of the opening blocks 94 and 96, a plurality of openings are arranged so as to oppose each other on their opposing surfaces, and a light projecting means 132 is arranged on one side and a light receiving means 134 is arranged on the other side. Corresponding to the display opening 60 of the bag 44A, the opened reception bag 44A is identified, and this signal is sent to an identification device (not shown).

The lower end portion of the guide rod 42 is a free end, and the reception bag 44A released from the opening blocks 94 and 96 at the open position falls along the guide rod 42 by its own weight and falls into the storage box 136. It has become.

In addition, a duct 140 is connected between the opening 32 and the opening position on the front surface of the print acceptance machine to guide the inserted film.

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be described.

As shown in FIG. 3, a plurality of receiving bags 44 are mounted on the guide rod 42 in a stacked state. The reception bag is a base 48,
Since the weight of the weight 49 slides on the guide rod 42, the reception bag in the front row has the diamond-shaped stopper 112 as shown in FIG.
Abutted against and stopped.

When the print accepting machine 10 is energized, the motor 86 operates before the opening 32 is opened, and the opening blocks 94, 9 are opened.
6 move toward each other. For this reason, the separation piece 104A of the separation arm 104 separates the reception bag 44A in the front row from the others. At the same time, the diamond-shaped stopper 112 enters into the recess 56 of the hinge fitting 54, and the frontmost reception bag 44A moves away from the other reception bags in the direction of arrow A by its own weight and is received by the second stop 108.

When the motor 86 reversely rotates here, the opening blocks 94, 9
6 move away from each other. Therefore, the reception bag 44 in the second row, which has been stopped by the separating piece 104A until then, moves in the direction of arrow A and is supported by the diamond-shaped stopper 112, and the reception bag 44A in the front row is released from the second stopper 108, Sliding on the guide rod 42 by its own weight, stop stopper pin 1
Abut 18 and stop.

This is the standby state, and the operation instruction display 36 indicates that the film can be loaded, and the loading port 32 is opened by the operation of the keyboard 34 by the orderer. At the same time, the motor 86 operates and the opening blocks 94, 96
Move toward each other. For this reason, the front row of the reception bags 44A slide up on the slopes 124 and the stop pin 11
8, the base 48 is slightly moved in the direction of the arrow A by the guide groove 128 to get over the stopper pin 118, and as shown in FIG.
Open up.

Therefore, the film loaded from the loading port 32 is the duct 14
It is guided to 0 and is inserted into the open reception bag 44A. At the same time, a voucher with a receipt number or the like is pushed out from the voucher exit 28, and a recording sheet having the same contents as this is put into the reception bag 44. Here, when the motor 86 reversely rotates and the opening blocks 94 and 96 are separated, the mouthpiece 48 closes the entrance of the reception bag 44A by the spring biasing force. At the same time, the reception bag 44A corresponds to the position below the stopper pin 118 on the guide rod 42, so that the reception bag 44A is dropped from the tip end portion of the guide rod 42 into the storage box 136 by its own weight. By the separating operation of the opening blocks 94 and 96, the receiving bag 44 in the next row is moved to the second stopper 108.
, And comes into contact with the stopper pin 118 by its own weight to stop, and prepares for the next film loading operation.

Even during such operation of the reception bag, the weight 49, which is formed in a flat plate shape and is attached with the longitudinal direction of the opening as its longitudinal direction, applies a weak tensile force to the cloth bag 46 to move the bottom portion of the cloth bag 46. As shown in FIG. 7, since the same shape as the vicinity of the opening in the closed state is maintained, the cloth bag 46 does not bend and is not wound around the mouthpiece 48, so that the work for loading the film is reliable.

Although the weight 49 is housed in the sewn portion of the cloth bag in the above-mentioned embodiment, it goes without saying that the weight may be attached to the cloth bag by other means such as caulking and screwing.

In the above embodiment, the guide rod 42 is arranged so that its axis is inclined and the reception bag 44 is guided by its own weight. However, if the reception bag is moved by a driving means such as a motor, the guide rod 42 will be moved. It is also possible to make the shaft center of the other horizontal or other mounted state.
