DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a film loading device, and more particularly, the present invention relates to a film loading device, and more particularly, a mounting table on which a film package containing a plurality of sheet films is mounted is provided with a storage section in which a cutter member for cutting the package is arranged. The present invention also relates to a film loading device configured such that the cutter member is disposed in the accommodating portion so that the mounting table can be stored in the device main body.

2. Description of the Related Art Generally, radiation image films obtained by photographing subjects such as human bodies using X-rays are widely used in medical diagnosis and the like. Conventionally, when taking radiographic images using such an X-ray film, the X-ray film is loaded into a radiation imaging device in a light-shielded state, and the emulsion surface of this film is directly irradiated with X-rays. The image of the subject is recorded.

Incidentally, recently, a radiation image recording and reproducing system has been developed that uses a stimulable phosphor to obtain a radiation transmission image of a subject, and this system is becoming widely used. here,
A stimulable phosphor is a material that emits radiation (X-rays, α-rays, β-rays, γ-rays,
A phosphor that accumulates a portion of this radiation energy when irradiated with electron beams, ultraviolet rays, etc., and then generates exhaustive luminescent light corresponding to the accumulated energy when it is later irradiated with excitation light such as visible light.

The radiation image recording and reproducing system described above uses this stimulable phosphor, and once the radiation image information of the human body, etc.
Recording is performed on a sheet having a layer made of a stimulable phosphor, and the stimulable phosphor sheet is scanned with excitation light such as a laser beam to generate stimulated luminescence, and the resulting stimulated luminescence is photoelectrically processed. An image signal is obtained by reading the image signal, and based on this image signal, it is output as a visible image to a recording material such as a photographic light-sensitive material, a CRT, or the like.

Here, when recording an image on a recording material, an image recording device, for example, an image output laser printer device is employed. This device stores photographic film, which is a recording material, through a magazine, etc., takes out the film one by one using a sheet-fed mechanism such as a suction cup, and then uses electrical signals obtained from a stimulable phosphor sheet to The film is configured to be irradiated with a laser beam modulated by the laser beam to record a predetermined image. Therefore, the film on which the new image has been recorded is conveyed into an automatic developing device, undergoes a developing process, and then is stored at a predetermined location and used for medical diagnosis, etc., if necessary.

Incidentally, in the image output laser printer device, when loading the film into the device, the film must not be irradiated with external light, similar to the conventional radiation image capturing device described above. This is because it will be exposed to light. Therefore, -C
When loading film into an image recording device etc.
There is an inconvenience that the process must be carried out in a darkroom.

Therefore, in order to improve operability, it is strongly desired to load the film in a bright room, and various bright room loading methods have been proposed to make this possible. An example of this bright room loading method is disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Application No. 56-7931. This is shown in FIG.

That is, in relation to the prior art, FIG. 1a shows a cross-sectional view of a magazine 1 loaded into a radiographic imaging apparatus, etc., and this magazine 1 has a main body 2 and a main body 2 that can be opened and closed. It includes a lid part 3 which is hinged, and a chamber 4 is defined by the main body part 2 and the lid part 3. Holding rollers 5a and 5b are rotatably supported on the main body portion 2 and the lid portion 3, respectively, and the chamber 4 is connected from the holding rollers 5a and 5b side.
A light shielding member 6 is provided on the main body portion 2 and the lid portion 3 to prevent external light from being irradiated inside. Further, an opening 7 for taking out a film is formed in the lid 3, and a bent handle 9 is formed at one end of a shutter member 8 provided in the lid 3 for opening and closing the opening 7. ing.

A film package 10 is stored within this magazine 1. Inside the film package 10 is a padded cardboard 1.
) with multiple sheets of unexposed film 1 protected by
2 is housed in the magazine 1, and both ends 10a and 10b of the film package 10 are exposed to the outside from the magazine 1.

In order to load the film package 10 configured as described above in a bright room, first, the one end 10a of the film package 10 must be attached to the handle 9 of the shutter member 8.
Then, as shown in FIG. It is drawn from 1. the result,
The film package 10 is attached to the handle 9 and pulled out from the magazine 1, and since the film package 10 is held between the pinching rollers 5a and 5b, the unexposed film 12 inside the film package 10 is It ends up remaining in the chamber 4.

Furthermore, in this case, the chamber 4 in the magazine 1 is
is released into the device 13. Therefore, unexposed film 1
2 is suctioned by the vacuum suction device 14 and conveyed to a predetermined imaging position.

However, in the above-mentioned prior art, in order to load the film into the device, the end of the film package is engaged with the shutter member, and after the magazine is loaded into the device, the shutter member is attached. Removal work is required. As a result, the disadvantage is that the loading operation of such a film is complicated and takes a considerable amount of time.

Further, as another conventional technique, there is a device disclosed in Utility Model No. 57-25220. That is, FIG. 1C shows a sectional view of the magazine 1a, which includes a main body 2a and a lid 3a hinged to one end of the main body 2a so as to be openable and closable. The main body part 2a and the lid part 3a
A chamber 4a is defined by these, and nipping rollers 5c and 5d are rotatably supported on the main body portion 2a and the lid portion 3a, respectively. Further, a film ejection opening 7a is formed in the main body 2a, and the opening 7a is opened and closed by a shutter member 8a mounted on the upper part of the main body 2a.

Therefore, when loading the film package 10 into a device (not shown) in a bright room, first, the film package 10 is
Cut the other end 10b of 0 with the scissors 15 (see FIG. 1d), and hold the other end 10b with your fingertips while bending the other end 10b to allow external light to enter into the film package 10. Make sure that it is not exposed to radiation.

On the other hand, in the magazine 1a, the cover body 3a is opened in advance, and the film package 1O is inserted into the chamber 4a from the bent end on the other end 10b side, and the one end 10a is opened from the outside of the magazine 1a. to expose. Further, after closing the lid portion 3a, if the one end portion 10a exposed to the outside is pulled in a direction away from the magazine la, the film package 10 is pulled out to the outside, and the inside of the film package 10 is pulled out. The unexposed film 12 is held between the nipping rollers 5c and 5.
d and remains in the chamber 4a.

Then, when the magazine 1a is loaded into a device (not shown) and the shutter member 8a is pulled out from the magazine 1a by manual operation, the film ejection opening 7a is opened into the device (not shown).

However, in the above-mentioned prior art, the film packaging body 10
After cutting the other end 10b with scissors 15, this other end 10
The operator inserts the film package 1 into the chamber 4a of the magazine 1a while holding it closed with his or her fingertips, and then closes the lid 3a and pulls the one end 10a exposed to the outside.
Next, the magazine 1a is loaded into the apparatus and the shutter member 8a is operated to open the opening 7a for taking out the film in the apparatus.

Therefore, similar to the prior art shown in FIGS. 1a and 1b, there is a drawback that the work of loading the unexposed film 12 into the apparatus is quite complicated.

Moreover, in each of the above-mentioned conventional techniques, a dedicated magazine must be used to store the film package. Since this dedicated magazine is repeatedly loaded into the image recording apparatus, it needs to be manufactured strongly so that it can withstand long-term use, and as a result, the dedicated magazine itself has a considerable weight. Therefore, a drawback arises in that it is troublesome for the operator to attach and detach the dedicated magazine.

The stopper means 120 includes a rotary solenoid 122 , and the rotary solenoid 122 is fixed to a mounting base 124 formed on the main body 30 . An L-shaped locking member 128 is locked to a drive shaft 126 extending from the rotary solenoid 122 .

In this case, the locking member 128 is the rotary solenoid 1
The notch 13 is configured to be swingable under the driving action of the mounting table 34, and its end is formed in the upper part of the side wall 36d of the mounting table 34.
0.

Note that a single wafer mechanism 132 including a suction cup is disposed within the main body portion 30.

Furthermore, the film package 134 loaded into the main body 30 will be explained. That is, as shown in FIG. 2, the film package 134 includes a plurality of sheet films F.
It has a bag-like shape that stores stacked items. In this case, both longitudinal ends 136a and 136b of the film package 134
The two ends 136a, 136 are sealed by welding or the like.
b is folded back to the take-out surface side of the sheet film F, and then integrally attached via a seal 138. In addition, in FIG. 2, the part shown by the broken line shows the cut part 140 of the film package 134.

The film loading device of this embodiment is basically constructed as described above, and its operation and effects will be explained next.

As shown in FIG. 3a, when the mounting table 34 is pulled out from the main body part 30, the rod 80 constituting the tensioning means 78 is pulled out from the wall part 1.
) 8, and this rod 80 is pulled in the direction of arrow A with respect to the mounting table 34 by the tensile force of the spring 86.

For this reason, the protrusion 82 formed on the rod 80 is
It engages with the locking part 76 of and pulls it in the direction of arrow A.

Therefore, the movable base 66 is connected to the spring 86 and the movable base 66
It is displaced in the direction of arrow A through the tensile force of a spring 68 that is engaged with, and its end abuts against the stopper member 56.

Next, as shown in FIG.
6 is loaded with the film package 134. In this case, the distance between the stopper member 56 and the roller 72 should be
If it is selected to be slightly smaller than the length in the longitudinal direction of 34, the film package 134 will be firmly fixed to the moving table 66 when the film package 134 is accommodated in the moving table 66. .

Then, the cutter member 98 housed in the opening 94 of the fixing means 88 is taken out, and the cutter member 98 is moved along the lateral direction of the film package 134, and the cutter member 98 is moved through the blade part 100 to the film package 134. The cutting portion 140 shown by the broken line is cut.

At this time, since the film package 134 is held between the stopper member 56 and the roller 72, the cut portion 140
Therefore, it is possible to prevent external light from irradiating into the film package 134.

After cutting the film package 134 at a desired portion, the fourth
As shown in the figure, when the cutter member 98 is retracted into the opening 94 under the guiding action of the light shielding member 96, the cutter portion 98 presses the light shielding member 96, so that the lock arm 104 uses the fulcrum pin 106 as a fulcrum. and swings upward in the vertical direction. Therefore, the claw portion 10 of the lock arm 104
8 is a locking member provided on the main body 30 1) Projection 10 of 0
9, and the mounting table 34 can be moved toward the main body 30 side.

Therefore, the end portion 136b side of the film package 134 is integrally folded with the remaining portion of the cut end portion 136a toward the handle 44 side, and the mounting table 34 is displaced toward the main body portion 30 side. For this reason, the rod 80 constituting the tensioning means 78
The flange portion 84 of the rod 80 contacts the wall portion 1) 8 of the main body portion 3o, and the rod 80 moves in the direction of arrow B with respect to the mounting table 34 against the tensile force of the spring 86. As a result, rod 8
The projection 82 of 0 is separated from the locking portion 76 of the movable table 66, and only the tensile force of the spring 68 acts on the movable table 66.

The stopper means 120 is driven while the mounting table 34 is accommodated in the main body 30 via the respective guide protrusions 4Qa, 40b and the guide grooves 42a, 42b that engage with these. That is, as shown in Fig. 3, the rotary solenoid 1
22, the drive shaft 126 is rotated to swing the locking member 128 in the direction of arrow C. Therefore, the locking member 1
The end of 2B engages with a notch 130 formed in the side wall 36d of the mounting table 34, thereby fixing the mounting table 34 within the main body 30.

Further, in this case, the end of the film package 134 placed on the handle 44 of the mounting table 34 is held between the roller 1) 2 and the light shielding plate 46 through the elastic force of a spring (not shown). , gap 1 between the main body 30 and the handle 44
It is exposed to the outside through 6. Therefore, if the end of the film package 134 exposed to the outside is pulled in the direction of arrow B, the movable table 66 on which the film package 134 is placed will move in the direction of arrow B against the tensile force of the spring 68. , and is supported by coming into contact with the locking plate 48 . At that time, the film packaging body 134 is moved integrally with the moving table 66 as indicated by the arrow B.
The film packaging body 134 is moved away from the stopper member 56 by being displaced in the direction. Then, when the film package 134 is pulled out in the direction of the arrow B, the sheet films F stacked and stored in the film package 134 remain on the moving table 66 via the respective rollers 72.1)4.

The film packaging body 134 is attached to the guide rollers 54a to 5.
4d and are all led out to the outside, the moving table 66
is displaced in the direction of arrow A by the tensile force of the spring 68, and the end of the sheet film F placed on the moving stage 66 comes into contact with the stopper member 56 and is positioned.

Next, under the driving action of the sheet-fed mechanism 132, the plurality of sheet films F stacked on the moving stage 66 are attracted one by one and transported to an image recording mechanism (not shown).

In this case, in this embodiment, the cutter member 98 for cutting the film package 134 is attached to the mounting table fixing means 88.
Since the cutter member 98 is a structural element, it is possible to avoid leaving the cutter member 98 behind and to perform an effective film loading operation.

That is, as described above, after mounting the film package 134 on the mounting table 34, the cutter member 98 is inserted into the opening 9 to cut the cut portion 140 of the film package 134.
4, the pressing action of the cutter member 98 on the lock arm 104 is released. Therefore, the lock arm 104 swings downward in the vertical direction using the fulcrum pin 106 as a fulcrum, and the claw portion 108 engages with one of the protrusions 109 of the locking member 1) 0 provided on the main body portion 30. Therefore, if an attempt is made to store the mounting table 34 in the main body 30 without re-arranging the cutter member 98 in the opening 94, the lock arm 104 will lock onto the protrusion 109 and the displacement movement of the mounting table 34 will be blocked. be done. In other words, the mounting table 34 becomes movable only when the cutter member 98 is housed in a predetermined position, that is, in the opening 94.

As a result, after finishing the cutting operation of the film package 134, the cutter member 98 is removed from the film package 13, for example.
There is no risk that the mounting table 34 will be stored in the main body part 30 while remaining on the sheet film 4. In particular, there is no risk that the cutter member 98 that has entered the main body part 30 will interfere with the sheet feeding mechanism 132 and the sheet film will be smooth. It is possible to avoid the inconvenience of not being able to complete the single wafer work of F.

Moreover, there is no need to misplace the cutter member 98 in a place other than the predetermined position and to search for the cutter member 98 after mounting the film package 134 on the mounting table 34, thereby making it possible to efficiently film the sheet film. The effect is that it becomes possible to accomplish the loading work of F.

Furthermore, other embodiments of the film loading device according to the present invention are shown in FIGS. A detailed explanation thereof will be omitted.

As shown in FIG. 6, a housing 150 is provided at an internal corner of the mounting table 34a, similar to the aforementioned mounting table 34, and an opening for accommodating the cutter member 98a is provided in the housing 150. A portion 152 is formed. Then, one end of the L-shaped lever member 154 enters the opening 152, and in this case, the bent portion of the lever member 154 can swing freely through the bin 156 erected on the mounting table 34a. Supported. The other end of the lever member 154 passes through an opening 158 formed in the mounting table 34a and enters the main body 30a. At that time, the mounting table 34
A sponge-like rubber 160 is provided in order to close the opening 158 and block light.

Further, a columnar support member 16 is provided on the wall of the mounting table 34a.
Fixed type first guide plate 16 via 2a and 162b
4a and a movable second guide plate 164b are provided. The second guide plate 164b is longer than the first guide plate 164a, and an ellipse 166 is formed on the second guide plate 164b.
is formed, and the second guide plate 164b is in contact with the end of the lever member 154.

On the other hand, a support plate 168 is provided on the main body portion 30a, and the rod 170 is supported via this support plate 168. The rod 170 extends in a direction perpendicular to the drawing direction of the mounting table 34a, has a flange 174 formed in a portion close to the support plate IJ38 side, and has a coil spring 176 between the flange 174 and the support plate 168. Interpose. Further, the rod 170 is formed with a locking claw portion 178 that protrudes toward the mounting table 34a and whose tip bulges toward the second guide plate 164b. In addition, in this case, rod 1
70 is configured to be pressed in the direction of arrow E under the action of an actuator or the like (not shown).

In such a configuration, the fixing means 88a according to the second embodiment is the same as the fixing means 88 according to the first embodiment described above.
It has a different effect. That is, the cutter member 98a
When the mounting table 34a is pressed toward the main body 30a without placing the rods in the openings 152, the locking claws 178 provided on the rods 170 engage the respective guides ri 164a and 16.
4b.

Therefore, the second guide plate 164b is pressed in the direction of arrow G along the shape of the locking claw portion 178. At that time, as shown by the two-dot chain line in FIG. 7, the second guide plate 164b
Since the lever member 154 that comes into contact with the second guide plate 164b is swingable, the second guide plate 164b has an oval shape 166 formed therein.
, and move in the direction of arrow F.

In this way, by moving the second guide plate 164b in the direction of arrow F, the locking claw portion 178 does not engage with the second guide plate 164h. Therefore, if the operator releases the pressing force on the mounting table 34a at this point, the mounting table 34a will protrude from the main body 30a to the outside through the tensile force of the spring 86a that engages with the rod 80a. Become. As a result, the operator is unable to pull the film package 134a.

Therefore, if the cutter member 98a is accommodated in the opening 152, the lever member 154, which has one end in contact with the second guide plate 164b, will be unable to swing with the other end in contact with the cutter member 98a. . For this reason, the mounting table 3
4a toward the main body part 30a, when the locking claw part 17B provided on the rod 170 comes into contact with the second guide plate 164b, the rod 170 is pressed against the coil spring 17.
It is displaced in the direction of arrow E against the elastic force of 6. Roughly speaking, the locking claw portions 178 are attached to the respective guide plates 164a and 164.
b, and then the tip thereof is inserted into the second guide plate 1.
64b (see FIGS. 6 and 7). Therefore, the storage stand 34a is housed and fixed in the main body 30a.

Note that when pulling out the mounting table 34a from the main body 30a, the rod 170 is moved under the action of an actuator (not shown).
The locking claw portion 178 may be separated from the second guide plate 164b by pressing in the direction of arrow E.

As described above, according to the present invention, a mounting table on which a film package in which a plurality of sheet films are laminated and stored is provided with an accommodation section in which a cutter member for cutting the film package is disposed, and When the cutter member is placed in the section, the mounting table is configured to be able to be stored in the main body of the apparatus. Therefore, when the cutter member is placed in a place other than the predetermined position, the mounting table will not be stored in the main body of the device.
For example, the cutter member left at a location other than the predetermined location does not enter the main body of the apparatus and interfere with the single-wafer mechanism. Moreover, there are advantages in that it is possible to prevent the cutter member from being left behind, to perform extremely efficient film loading work, and to provide a film loading device with good workability.

Although the present invention has been described above with reference to preferred embodiment L4, the present invention is not limited to this embodiment, and various improvements and changes in design can be made without departing from the gist of the present invention. Of course.
