Abstract

Abstract A magazine for belt-shaped photosensitive material in which the photosensitive material is in the form of a roll and is rotatably supported by a casing of the magazine. The photosensitive material is pulled through a slot formed in the casing and a small tab piece is attached to at least one of two lateral edges of the photosensitive material so that the small piece protrudes in the widthwise direction of the photosensitive material. The sum of the length of the protruding small piece and the width of the photosensitive material is larger than the length of the slot. A leading end protector is detachably mounted to the casing. The protector extends along the widthwise direction along the front end portion of the photosensitive material and prevents the front end portion from being bent or deformed.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 129 words
A photosensitive material magazine comprising: a casing; a belt-shaped photosensitive material wound in the form of a roll and rotatably supported in said casing; a slot formed in a side of said casing through which said photosensitive material is pulled out; light-shielding means attached to said slot for preventing exposure of said photosensitive material to light; a tab means attached to at least one of two lateral edges of a length of said photosensitive material pulled out through said slot; said tab means protruding in the widthwise direction of said photosensitive material such that the sum of the length of the protrusion of said tab means and the width of said photosensitive material is larger than the length of said slot, thus preventing said belt-shaped photosensitive material from rewinding.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 129 words
A photosensitive material magazine comprising: a casing; a belt-shaped photosensitive material wound in the form of a roll and rotatably supported in said casing; a slot formed in a side of said casing through which said photosensitive material is pulled out; light-shielding means attached to said slot for preventing exposure of said photosensitive material to light; a tab means attached to at least one of two lateral edges of a length of said photosensitive material pulled out through said slot; said tab means protruding in the widthwise direction of said photosensitive material such that the sum of the length of the protrusion of said tab means and the width of said photosensitive material is larger than the length of said slot, thus preventing said belt-shaped photosensitive material from rewinding.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 57 words
A photosensitive material magazine as claimed in claim 1 further comprising: a protector for protecting the front end portion of said length of photosensitive material which is pulled out through said slot; said protector being detachably mounted on said casing and extending in said widthwise direction along said front end portion of said length of photosensitive material.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 20 words
A photosensitive material magazine as claimed in claim 2 wherein said protector is in the shape of a quadrangular prism.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 20 words
A photosensitive material magazine as claimed in claim 2 wherein said protector is in the shape of a trirangular prism.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 20 words
A photosensitive material magazine as claimed in claim 2 wherein said protector is in the shape of a U-shaped channel.
