The operation of the apparatus of this embodiment configured as described above will be explained below.

In this embodiment, it is assumed that the apparatus performs imaging in the order of P1 to P4 shown in FIG.

First, as a preparatory work, the supply magazine 21 loaded with film and fitted with a light-shielding lid is securely set in the magazine holder in a dark room, and the light-shielding lid 21A is pulled out. Also,
The receive magazine 25 is set and its film receiving port is opened.

In this state, turn on the power to the device and perform initial settings. Initial settings include setting the monitor television device 1 at a position corresponding to the image position P1 on the film, making operating parts such as the film suction cup 22A of the film ejecting mechanism 22 wait at a predetermined position, and setting the vacuum pump to a position corresponding to the image position P1 on the film. including operating the pump.

Furthermore, two remote control units (hereinafter simply referred to as remote units) 51A are controlled by a setting switch 56 provided on the R channel of the main body.

Set whether to use the 51B alone (hereinafter, this usage will be referred to as priority setting) or to enable two units to operate in parallel.

Furthermore, the selection switch 38 selects one of the preset imaging condition channels in consideration of the image characteristics of the diagnostic devices A and B that output the video and the characteristics of the film used.
Select the most suitable one. Also, set the film feed to either Autofee P1 or Manual Feed.

This means that the preparations for starting shooting have been completed. The following will explain the photographing operation. In the following description, a case will be described in which a film is auto-feeded and a desired remote unit 51A is given priority.

Prior to operation, the operator presses the exposure switch 41 of the selected remote unit 51A. This operation is necessary only when starting up the apparatus, and otherwise the film take-out mechanism 22 operates to take out the film from the supply magazine 21, pass it through the film temporary storage section 23, and transfer it to the film exposure section 2.
Send it out to the reference position in step 4. For auto feed, 2
The supply of the subsequent films is carried out by the film exposure section 24.
When the first sheet of film prepared in You will have to wait.

This makes it possible to significantly reduce the waiting time for film replacement when continuous shooting is performed.

The operator has completed setting the film in the shooting position by operating the exposure switch, and from now on, when recording the necessary images while watching the monitor, the operator should press the exposure switch 41 of the remote unit 51A. push. As a result, the same image displayed on the CRT of the monitor television device is photographed at the position P1 on the film as the shutter device 3 operates.

When the image shooting at the position of Pl on the film is completed,
Transport roller pair 24A of film exposure section 24.

24A', 24B, and 24B' are driven to transport the film a predetermined distance.

This brings the position P2 on the film to the photographing position. This state is notified to the operator by an indicator light 41A provided on the exposure switch 41 of the remote unit 51A.

Note that this status display can also be provided to be displayed simultaneously on other remote units 51B.

The operator confirms that the indicator light 41A indicating exposure permission is lit, and then takes an image at the next position P2.

When the image shooting at position P2 on the film is completed,
The monitor television device moving mechanism 8 operates to move the monitor television device 1 to the photographing position P1 on the film.

It is moved from the position corresponding to P2 to the positions corresponding to photographing positions p3 and p4. This operation is controlled by the rotation of the motor of the monitor television apparatus moving mechanism 8. At the same time, the Lux motor 7 of the film exposure section 24 is driven to move the film to its original position. By these two moving operations, the position P3 on the film comes to the photographing position. When the photographing of the image at the position P3 on the film is completed, the film is transferred to the photographing position P4 in exactly the same manner as when the photographing of the image at the position Pl is completed.

When the photographing of the image at position P4 on the film is completed, the film is guided from the film exposure section 24 to the guides P24G, 24H, etc., and fed into the receive magazine 25. The film fed into the receive magazine 25 is taken out together with the receive magazine 25 at an appropriate time and transferred to the next processing step. Simultaneously with the above operation, the monitor television device 1 is returned to the position corresponding to the photographing position P1 on the film. Also, at the same time as the photographed film is fed out from the film exposure section 24, or at an appropriate interval, the next film waiting in the temporary film storage section 23 is transferred to a predetermined location in the film exposure section 24. is moved to the next position. In conjunction with the above film exchange operation, the photographic frame number on the film on the display section 40 on the remote controller 51A returns to 1.

This means that preparations for the next shooting are complete.

Next, a control system in which remote units 51A and 51B can be arbitrarily selected will be explained based on chart 70 in FIG.

When the above-mentioned photographing preparation is completed in step 200,
In step 201, the control unit 100 controls whether the device is photographing or not.
Judge whether it is 6 or not. If the Stella f201 device is in the shooting operation, the process goes to step 210 and the process ends, and the remote unit 51A is sent to the remote unit 51A.

51B selection operation is not performed.

On the other hand, if step 201 is negative, it is determined in the next step 202 whether or not priority setting is performed by the setting switch 56 on the channel. This step 2
If 02 is denied, the control unit 100 controls two remote units) 51A.

It is determined that 51B are connected in parallel, and photographing operations can be performed from either remote unit 51A or 51B. Therefore, in the Stella f203, a remote switching signal RcH is generated so that both switch contacts SWA and SWB of the remote switching device 53 are turned "ON". Next, in Stella f204, each remote unit 51A
, 51B is determined. For example, if the remote unit 51A specifies its switch 36 to operate the diagnostic device A, the video switch 55, like the Stella F205, will switch to the switch contact S.
Set Wa to "ON" and swb to r OFF J.

And this information is always sent to the other remote unit 5.
The switch 36 of the other remote unit 51B is switched to the state in which the diagnostic device A is selected.

Also, in step 204, other remote units)
When the switch 51B selects the diagnostic device B, the video switch 55 switches its switch contact SWa to OFF and swb to OFF, as shown in step 206.
ON”, diagnostic device B is connected. Similarly, this condition is transmitted to one remote unit 51A.

Next, a case where priority is set for remote units 51A and 51B will be explained. In step 202,
When the priority setting is confirmed by the setting switch 56, the control unit 100 leaves the selection of the remote unit to be used to the remote unit itself. That is, the remote units 51A and 51B are provided with remote changeover switches 43 that are controlled so that when one is turned ON, the other is turned OFF. For example, in step 207-'! '! When the remote selector switch 43 of J-Mote 22) 51A is turned ON, the STETSU f208
As shown in the figure, the contact point of the remote switch 53 is
N", SWB r OFF J, still video switch 55
SWa is turned ON, swb is turned OFF, and the video signal vA is operated by the remote unit 51A. Also, when the remote changeover switch 43 of the remote controller 22) 51B is turned on, the Stellar f20
As shown in FIG. 9, the contacts SWB of the KIJ mote switch 53 and the contacts SWb of the video switch 55 are both turned ON, and the contacts SWA of the remote switch 53 and the contacts SWa of the video switch 55 are both turned OFF. Vn
becomes operable.

However, the series of switching operations described above are not performed when a single film is in the middle of being shot. Further, in the above embodiment, the video input changeover switch 36 and the remote changeover switch 43 are separately provided, but the video input changeover switch 36 and the remote changeover switch 43 are also used, and the setting switch 56 is set to 0FF-1'. When priority is not set, it may function as a switch that switches only video input, and when priority is set, it may function as a switch that simultaneously switches remote and video input.

In the above description, the case where the film is automatically fed is shown, but it is possible to switch to manual feeding when the number of shots is small. In the case of manual fee 1, the film is set by the operator's first exposure switch operation as described above, and the film is not temporarily stored (standby) in the film temporary storage section 23.

The contents of the error displayed on the error display section 33 are as follows:
If the film removal mechanism 22 fails to take out the film by suction, the film is transferred from the temporary storage section 23 to the exposure section 24.
If the film does not move smoothly from the exposure section 24 to the receive magazine 25, which is the next step 1, or if the photographing position of the film in the exposure section 24 does not move smoothly, the monitor television device 1 may move smoothly. There are cases where this is not the case, but this is not limited to Tore.

The sequential operation in the apparatus of the above embodiment may be controlled by a combination of logic circuits, or may be controlled by a program using a microcomputer or the like.

Furthermore, although the above embodiment has been described as a system in which two remote control units (51A and 51B) and two diagnostic devices are connected, the system is not limited to this, and multiple remote control units (51A, 51B) and two diagnostic devices are connected. and diagnostic equipment can be connected.

Furthermore, in the above embodiment, an example was shown in which four frames are photographed on one film, but the number of frames to be photographed is not limited to four frames, and can be freely selected. There is nothing to say. In this case, the monitor television apparatus moving mechanism 8, the film transporting mechanism of the film exposure section 24, etc. may be changed for a predetermined moving distance, if necessary. The conditions set in the photographing condition channel may include whether the image is a negative image or a positive image, contrast, soliteness, exposure time, and the like.

Among the displays of the remote units 51A and 51B, if necessary, an alarm by a buzzer or the like may be combined with the display by the indicator light. For things like the error display section 33, where there are a plurality of objects, it is also possible to distinguish them by changing the display or warning.

Further, in the above embodiment, an example was shown in which the present invention was applied to a divided photographic device, but the present invention should not be limited to this.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As described above, the present invention includes an image display device that displays a photographic device, a projection optical system that forms an image displayed on the image display device onto a film surface, and a transport mechanism for the film. In photography equipment, multiple remote control units are placed at arbitrary locations where diagnostic equipment, etc. are installed, and photographing operations can be performed as appropriate from each location.1, the effectiveness of the photography equipment is improved. It is what was done.
