If the photographed film is short-sized, the lever 6 does not operate and the film 4 is stacked and accumulated in a discharge box 5.

Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The Fi and Am groups of the present invention are photographed on microfilm,
The present invention relates to a camera processor capable of consistently carrying out each photographic processing process such as developing, fixing, washing, and drying, and in particular, the present invention is capable of changing the film storage method depending on whether the film to be photographed is long or short. , nine camera processors are installed so that the above steps can be performed consistently.

The definition of long length and short length as used in the present invention is determined by whether the length is larger or smaller than a preset reference length, as described later, and this reference length usually means several meters.

Conventionally, there are two known storage methods for photographed film in camera processors: one in which the photographically processed film is wound in the storage section using a reel cape, and the other in which the film is simply ejected into the ejection pouch of the storage section without being wound onto a reel. There is. In the former case, post-processing work becomes easier, such as when shooting a large amount of film at once, continuously processing a long film, winding it onto a reel, and storing the processed film as is. . However, if the amount of shooting is small, the film will be short, so it will take longer to wind onto the reel, and the film will need to be rewound and rewinded. In addition to increasing the number of times the composting reel must be attached and detached, the work becomes extremely complicated if the film needs to be edited and stored in longer lengths. In the case of the first method, since the film is simply discharged to the discharge box, the film can be continuously stored as long as the capacity of the discharge box allows, regardless of the length of the film. However in this case.

In particular, when a long film is ejected, the film is accumulated in a loop, which causes the film to rub against each other and become charged with static electricity or become scratched, reducing the quality of the film. This can cause the film to jam at the exit, making it impossible to eject the film, and to overcome this drawback, the film ejection box must be made larger.

The present invention eliminates the above-mentioned drawbacks of conventional camera pro cameras and combines only the advantages of the above-mentioned two film storage systems into a 2-bu camera! 2- The purpose is to provide food.
JP-A-58-174930 (2) That is, the present invention relates to a camera section for photographing a document or the like.

a storage section for storing the film photographed by the camera section, and a processing section for continuing photographic processing of the film;
and a film storage section for storing the photographically processed film, the film storage section is controlled by a signal emitted from a film measuring circuit that measures the length of the film manipulated by the camera section. It is configured so that you can choose whether to wind it or laminate it.
This is a camera prosena with special features.

Hereinafter, the details of the present invention will be explained with reference to an embodiment. Fig. 1 is a front view of a camera proscenor according to an embodiment of the present invention, and Fig. 2 is a block diagram of its electric circuit.

In this embodiment, when the amount of film 4 photographed by the camera section 1 exceeds a preset standard value, that is, when the film is long, the film measuring circuit 21 issues a signal to the #J film ejection box. The film transport path switching lever 6 installed near the film inlet of 5 is operated to unwind the film 4 after photographic processing on the reel 7, and the amount of film 4 that has been photographed is set to the standard value). When there is a large amount of electricity, that is, when the film is short, the film transport lever 6 does not operate and the film 4 after photographic processing is stacked and accumulated in the film ejection box 5. It is a camera processor. That is.

This camera processor is broadly divided into a camera s11, a film storage section 2, a processor section 3, and a film storage section S, which is a film storage section.

In the camera section 1, an image is taken on a film 4 supplied to a reel 15 via a lens 16 and the like. The photographed film 4 is transferred to the drive roller 11.1
1 m and drive roller 12.1 in film storage 2
It is wound onto a reel 17 via a length of 2 m. drive four
11. The 11th turtle measures the amount of photographed film 4 and inputs the value in the meter field to the measuring circuit 21 shown in FIG. The measuring circuit 21 is configured so that the input measuring glue value is determined in advance.
is set to 9 and is less than the standard value (i.e. short length O)
1 does not emit a signal, and conversely, when it is more dense than the reference value (i.e., it is longer), it emits a signal.
Note that this reference value is determined by the capacity of the film discharge box 50, etc., and can be freely set by the measuring circuit 21.

When a desired amount of photography has been achieved, a photographic processing switch (not shown) is operated to send the final end of the photographed film 40 to the film storage section 2, and the film cutter 15 is operated to cut the film 4. The following explanation assumes that the amount of photographing is less than the reference value mentioned above. After the photographed film 4 is cut as described above, the drive roller 12.
Reference numeral 12a denotes a groove holding the vicinity of the cut portion of the film 4, which is rotated 90° from the position of B to the position B so that the cut portion of the film 4 corresponds to the entrance of the film guide 190 of the processor section 5. The rows 12 and 12a are constructed so that they return to the position of the rollers again after feeding the photographed film. Then film 4Fi dry blow? 12.12m [
The data is then sent into the processor section 3. The loaded film 4 is guided through each process of photographic processing by the film guide 19, U-718, etc., and sent to the film discharge box 5. In this case, the guide switching lever 4 is in the position to close the film guide on the take-up side, and the film 4Fi after photographic processing has been fed to the film ejection box 5, and the film feed roller 10.1.
The film is conveyed in the direction of υa and stored in a stack at the bottom of the film discharge pouch 5 by the rollers 10 and 10a.

In this way, when the amount of shooting is p less than the reference value, that is, when the film is short, the measuring circuit 21 does not emit a signal, and even if the cutter 1s operates and the cutter circuit 22 issues a signal, the cutter circuit 22 does not emit a signal. The MD circuit 23 does not issue any further activation signal and the guide switching lever 6 remains at the normal position.The films are stacked and stored as described above.

On the other hand, if the photographic amount is greater than the O reference value, the measuring circuit 21 issues a signal, and the signal is input to the MD circuit 25. Further, as the cutter 1s operates, the signal generated by the cutter circuit 22 is input to the ID@path 25.

Based on these two signals, the MMD circuit 23 emits a signal,
The signal sets tie i of the timer circuit 24, and the signal is input to the flip-flop circuit 26 after the set time. This setting time is set until the leading edge of the film reaches just before the guide switching lever 6. Also, by using a timer, it is possible to eliminate the inconvenience caused when a previously shot film is in the film guide 19. In response to the signal inputted after the above-mentioned set time, the guide switching lever 6 is energized to a reel, etc., so that the film guide 1 on the take-up series side is turned on. Open B and insert the other film guide 1.
? It operates to close the system. Also, the guide switching lever 6
0~9°? a and the reel 7 start rotating to pick up the film 4. The photographically processed film 4 is conveyed to the film discharge box 5 which operates as described above, and the feed tallow 59.9
The film is wound onto a reel 7 via a pulley and a film winding guide 8. After that, roll 4! The film progresses and film 4
When the rear end is detected by the side ratio sensor 20 installed in front of the guide switching lever 60, the time elapsed until the rear end crosses the guide switching lever 6 is detected by the flip-flop circuit 26. The signal generated by the circuit 250 is input. The signal cuts off the current to the lenoid, etc.
The guide switching lever 6 closes the film guide 19B on the take-up reel 7 side again, and also closes the film guide 19B on the take-up reel 7 side.
．． 91 and reel 7 also stop rotating.

As described above, in this camera process f, when a large number of originals 14 are photographed at once and the film 4 becomes long, it is wound onto the reel 7), and when the photographed film 4 is short, it is stacked. Since it is configured as follows, conventional ★ Mera Processor O
Compared to the film storage method, scratches on the film 4 and film clogging can be prevented to a minimum, and the amount of the film discharge box 5011 can be minimized. Further, the post-processing work of the film storage cape becomes easier.

Although the present invention has been described above with reference to one embodiment, the present invention is not necessarily limited to the above embodiment.

For example, in the above-mentioned embodiment, the guide switching lever 6 is configured to guide the film 4 to the take-up side or the lamination side. A film storage section may also be configured.

That is, a film winding lever 8 is used as a member that has the same function as the guide switching lever 6 described above, and this lever 8
Normally, the lever 8 hangs down as shown by the broken line in the figure, and the lever 8 moves the film as shown by the solid line in response to a signal when a long film is being fed, similar to the activation signal in the previous embodiment. Position where it can be rolled up is OK
The winding reel starts rotating and winds up the film 4 that is fed through the film guide 19 in the direction of the arrow.

In addition, when the film 4 that has been photographed is sansaku, hold the film-wrapped salt prepper 8 in the lower IIC cloudy position,
As shown in the figure, the film 4 that is being sent is allowed to fall under its own weight and is stacked on the bottom of the film discharge box 5. Even with this configuration, the same effects as those of the above-mentioned embodiments can be achieved.

The camera pro Ryu T described above stores the photographed film 4 in the film storage section 20 and the reel 17 once! Although this method is a method in which photographic processing is performed after photographing, the present invention further includes:
As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, a buffer chamber 2 is provided between the camera section 1 and the processor section 5, and the film 4 for shooting is stored in a loop in the buffer chamber 21 for shooting. It can also be used in camera processors that can perform continuous photographic processing.

That is, this camera processor stores the film 4 shot by the camera section 1 in a loop in the buffer chamber 21, adjusts the difference between the shooting speed of the camera section 1 and the processing speed of the processing section 3, and transfers the film 4 from the camera section 1 to the processor section 3. 11. If the film 4 is too thick, dry the film 11.11.
The leading edge of the film 4 is measured at m and is inputted from the measuring circuit 21 to the lume MD circuit 23, while the leading edge of the film 4 is sent from the shutter 7a chamber 2a by the detection sensor 28 provided near the entrance of the prosena section 30. is detected, a signal is input from the film leading edge detection circuit 27 to the film MD circuit 25, and the AND circuit 23 outputs an output signal based on these two signals.From this point on, the film 4 operates in the same manner as in the previous embodiment. , on reel 7! It is configured to be removed. in this case,
Cutter 15C) may be activated when a desired amount of images are taken.

In addition, if the amount of photographed film is smaller than the standard value, a signal is input from the measuring circuit 21 to the ND circuit 25, so that the subsequent devices do not operate and the short film 4 is sent to the bottom of the film ejection box 5. is discharged to. This embodiment constructed in this way has the same effects as the previous embodiment.
