Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to an apparatus for recording an image of a document and search information corresponding to the document on a photoreceptor.

Conventionally, in recording devices such as copying machines and cameras,
When recording an original on a photoreceptor, the image of the original and the contents of a counter are imprinted onto the photoreceptor as search information. Normally, the counter is configured to increment in relation to the exposure operation of the document, so if multiple documents constitute one piece of information, or if multiple copies of the same document are recorded, the counter is It is necessary to prevent it from advancing. Conventionally, a switch is used to change whether the counter is incremented or not, but in order to record one document or to record multiple copies of the same document, the switch is not incremented. After switching to the original state, when recording a new document, the user forgets to return the switch to the original state, resulting in incorrect search information being recorded on the photoreceptor.

The present invention has been made in view of the above drawbacks.

The present invention will be explained below using specific examples shown in the drawings. Figure 1 shows the entire processor camera to which the present invention is applied, and in the figure, each unit that can be attached to and detached from the main body base is removed, but each unit is configured to be detachable from the main body base. The device is supported by the main body base, and exerts its function by being attached to the main body base.
1 is a camera unit, which includes a raw (unexposed) film supply section, an exposure (photographing) section,
It has a film drive section, a film winding section, a photographing lens, etc., and details of this unit will be described later. Reference numeral 2 denotes a processor unit, which includes a liquid processing section such as a developing section, a film driving section, a drying section, a winding section, a processing liquid temperature control section, a processing liquid circulation section, and the like. Camera unit 1 and processor unit 2
are detachably attached to the support unit 3 and are electrically and mechanically connected by connectors 4, 4'-5, 5'. The support column unit 3 is configured to be detachably attached to the main body base 6, and is electrically and mechanically connected to the main body base 6 by a connector 7. The support unit 3 has a supply indicator lamp 9 which is turned on as required.

The main body base 6 has a subject mounting section 10 and a control section 11, and switches having various functions are arranged on the front panel of the control section 11. S ₁ is the power switch, S ₂ is the supply switch to feed the film a certain amount, and S ₃ is the counter installed on the front of the camera unit that automatically advances in conjunction with the exposure operation or controls the exposure operation. Step selection switch for selecting whether or not to link with S ₄
is a switch that selects whether or not to record the search mark on the film and the contents of the counter mentioned above on the film.In the _S5 , switching this switch uniquely changes the exposure time to several times the initial setting time. This is a switch for exposure magnification. Reference numeral 14 denotes a light receiving section that measures the illumination light illuminating the subject, and controls the opening time of the shutter. Reference numeral 15 denotes a light source unit that illuminates the subject, and this unit is configured to be detachably attached to the main body base 6, and is connected to a connector 16,
16' electrically and mechanically coupled.

A photographing flat sheet 20 for placing a subject is placed at a predetermined position on the subject mounting section 10 of the main body base, and a frame 21 indicating a photographable range is attached to the surface of the sheet 20.

If a subject is placed within this frame, the entire surface of the subject will be photographed. Further, various switches are arranged on the subject mounting section 10. S ₇ is a space switch to advance the film one frame at a time, S ₈
is the shutter switch, S ₉ is the step selection switch S ₃
This is an inversion switch that associates the counter and exposure operation with the state opposite to the state selected in S 3. This switch temporarily inverts the selection state set in S ₃ to the opposite state, and after pressing the shutter button, the counter and exposure operation will be related to each other. This is a switch for temporarily reversing the connection state between the counter and the exposure operation so that the relationship with the exposure operation returns to the setting state of switch _S3 . Note that the switches S ₂ , S ₇ , S ₈ , and S ₉ are self-reset type switches, and the other switches S ₁ , S ₃ , S ₄ , and S ₅ are lock type switches.

In this processor camera, camera unit 1 and processor unit 2 are connected to support unit 3.
When only the camera unit 1 is attached to the support unit 3 connected to the main body base 6, it can be used as a microfilm camera without a processor function. By preparing various camera units with different photographing magnifications, it is possible to replace and use the camera units according to the photographing magnification. However, in this case, a sheet 20 indicating the shooting range according to the shooting magnification of each camera unit is used.
Since it is necessary to change the position of the frame 21, the sheet 20 is replaceable, and a sheet 20 suitable for the camera unit can be used.

Next, details of the camera unit will be explained with reference to FIGS. 2 to 7. In FIG. 2, reference numeral 101 denotes the upper body of the camera unit 1, which is divided into a front chamber and a back chamber by a partition parallel to the plane of the paper. The front chamber forms a film storage area and a passage, and the back chamber is provided with a mechanism for operating a camera unit. Furthermore, the front chamber has a wall in the center, and the film supply chamber 10 is on the right side.
2. The left side is divided into a film winding chamber 103, which includes a film supply chamber 102 and a film winding chamber 10.

A film passage 105 connecting the film winding chamber 103 and the processor unit 2 is formed at the upper outside of the film supply chamber 102, and a connecting pipe 106 is provided at the connection portion of the passage with the processor unit. In the film supply chamber 102, a supply shaft 107, on which a reel 108 wound with raw film is mounted approximately in the center, is installed in the upper body 101 so as to be rotatable with a moderate amount of frictional resistance. Supply shaft 1
07 and the reel 108 are prevented from rotating relative to each other, for example, by fitting a square hole into a shaft having a square cross section. Supply chamber lever 109
is for detecting the remaining amount of film wound on the reel 108, and the upper body 1 is attached to one end of the film.
The film has a shaft 110 which is rotatable relative to 01 and biased by a spring in the counterclockwise direction, and a roller 111 which rotates in contact with the outer peripheral surface of the film wound on the reel 108 is provided at the other end. 112 is a guide roller for the film F. 113' is a capstan roller,

is a film winding shaft, and when used simply as a camera without using a processor unit, it is naturally installed in the center of the film winding chamber at the position indicated by the broken line 117' as shown by the two-dot chain line. The camera unit is connected to the processor unit (a reel is attached to the take-up shaft), and when the camera unit is used as a processor camera, it is separated from the coupling hole 118 and retracted to a corner 117 of the film winding chamber. When used as a camera, this film winding chamber is used as a film loop chamber (buffer chamber).It goes without saying that the winding shaft 117 can be attached to and detached from the coupling hole 118.
Consideration has been given to making it easy for the user. Reference numeral 119 denotes a film guide roller for guiding the film into the winding chamber 103 via the film passage 105 and the connecting pipe 106 to the processor unit side. Below the upper body 101 is a lower body 12.
0 is attached, and an aperture box 121 is fixed approximately at the center of the lower body 120. An aperture plate 123 is attached to the top surface of the aperture box, and a pressure bonding plate 124 is attached to the lever 124 for pressing the film against the plate during exposure and holding the film in a predetermined position and flat.
It is loosely attached to a pin 126 protruding from one end of 25. The lever 125 has a shaft 12 at the other end.
7 is firmly fixed, and the shaft 127 is fitted into a hole provided in the bulkhead of the fuselage and is biased to rotate clockwise by a spring provided in the back chamber.
As shown in FIG. 4, the aperture plate 123 has an aperture 123 that determines the shooting range of the subject.
A window 123b for imprinting a mark and a window 123c for imprinting a frame number are provided in the frame. Second
In the figure, 128 is a light emitting diode as a light source for mark imprinting, and is located directly below the mark imprinting window 123b. In the lower body 120, a photographing lens 129 is fixed below the aperture 123a. A shutter blade 130 is disposed between the aperture 123a and the photographing lens 129, and the shutter blade 130 is arranged between the aperture 123a and the photographing lens 129. It blocks out the light heading towards you. The shutter blade 130 is the lower fuselage 120
The shutter solenoid 132 is rotatably mounted around a shutter shaft 131 protruding from the main body, and when exposing the film, a shutter solenoid 132 is attracted by a signal from the control section 11 of the main body base.
The light escapes out of the effective optical path of the photographing lens 129. 133
is the return spring of the shutter blade. 134 is a decimal counter for counting the number of photographed frames, and a 6-digit number is displayed on 6 reading character wheels 136 lined up in the axial direction. The counter can not only be read from a counter reading window 140 provided in a part of the bottom cover 139, but also can be read adjacent to the image on the film with the same number displayed on the reading window as a frame number 142, if necessary. (See Figure 5).

Reference numeral 137 is a number imprinting ring made of a translucent resin material for this purpose, six of which are lined up in the axial direction, corresponding to the six-digit number. or,
Numbers from 0 to 9 are printed in negative (the letters are transparent and the surrounding areas are opaque) at equal intervals around the outer circumference of each ring. Reference numeral 138 denotes a lamp for illuminating the ring 137 from the inside to imprint characters on the film, which blinks in response to a signal from the control section 11. 145 is a light-shielding plate with a window that allows only the light from the numbers at a predetermined position to pass among the letters on the ring 137 illuminated by the lamp 138, and prevents unnecessary leakage light from reaching the film. . The light that has passed through the window of the light shielding plate 145 is photographed on the film F through the window 123c of the aperture plate 123 through an optical system including the first mirror 146, the second mirror 147, and the imaging lens 148, and is photographed on the film F through the window 123c of the aperture plate 123. Frame number 142 in between
It is imprinted as. 135 is reading character wheel 13
6. The drive wheel for driving the number imprinting ring 137 is composed of a ratchet wheel divided into 10 circumferences and a gear meshing with the gears provided on the reading character wheel 136 and the number imprinting ring 137. Needless to explain, each gear has the same number of teeth. Reading character wheel 136
A part of the circumference of the gear protrudes into the recess 141 of the bottom cover 139, and can be rotated by the user's fingertips, so the number on the counter can be set to any number at any time. can. 148
is a connector that relays electrical signals from the control section 11 to the camera unit 1, and is fixed to the lower body 120 via a support 149. FIG. 3 shows the back room behind the camera unit in FIG. 2. In Figure 3, M is a drive motor, 150
is a pinion attached to the output shaft of the drive motor; 151 to 154 are gear trains for decelerating and transmitting the rotation of the drive motor M; the final stage gear 154;
includes a drive pin 155 and a crimp plate 124 in FIG.
An operating cam 156 is integrally formed. 1
A micro switch 57 is operated by a pin 155 to switch every time the gear 154 rotates once, and sends a signal to the control unit to control the gear 154 to stop after one rotation. When the gear 154 rotates once, the connecting rod 158, which has one end attached to the drive pin 155, rotates the right gear 167 by 60 degrees clockwise, as will be described in detail later, and is fixed to the shaft 169 of the gear 168 by meshing with it. The film F is fed by one pitch (FIG. 5p) through the capstan 113' (FIG. 2). Furthermore, gear 168
drives a gear 173 and a cam wheel 174 integrally formed therewith via gears 170-172. The rotation of the cam wheel 174 turns on and off the micro switch 175 for detecting film feed, and the frequency of the turn on and off is set to one time per 10 mm of film feed. That is, in this embodiment, the diameter of the capstan 112 is 19.1 mm, and one rotation of the cam gear feeds the film 60 mm. The protrusion on the outer periphery of the cam ring 174 that presses the actuator of one micro switch 175 is 8
One rotation of the cam ring 174 causes the micro switch 175 to be turned on and off eight times. Therefore, gear 168 and gear 173 are connected by gear train 170 to 172.
The rotation ratio is set to 8:6. 4 and 7 show a mechanism for feeding the film F intermittently at regular intervals. FIG. 7 is a view of FIG. 6 viewed from the direction of arrow A. As mentioned above, in FIG. 6, the gear 154 is rotated in the direction of the arrow by the drive motor M via the reduction gear train, and is stopped after completing one rotation due to the cooperative action of the pin 155 and the micro switch 157 (FIG. 3). . On the other hand, a ratchet wheel 162 is integrally fixed to the shaft 163 of the right gear 167, and one end of a swing arm 159 is rotatably fitted. A pin 158' is installed at the other end of the swinging arm 159, and the ratchet pawl 1
60 is the fulcrum axis. Ratchet claw 160
The tip of the ratchet wheel 162 is always pressed against the outer periphery of the ratchet wheel 162 by the action of the torsion spring 161. A ratchet pawl 164 having the same shape as this ratchet pawl is connected to a fixed shaft 164 protruding from the upper body 101.
6 and is pressed against the outer periphery of the ratchet wheel 162 by the action of a torsion spring 165, thereby prohibiting the ratchet wheel 162 from rotating in reverse. Pin 158' on swing arm 159 and gear 154
The upper portions 155 are fitted into holes at both ends of a rigid connecting rod 158, respectively. With the above configuration, when the gear 154 rotates once as described above, the swing arm 157 reciprocates once in the range of arrow a (approximately 65 degrees), and the ratchet wheel 162 moves at an angle of one tooth (approximately 65 degrees).
degree). More specifically, in the first half-turn (lower half) of pin 155, pin 1
58' moves to the right, but since the ratchet wheel 162 and the ratchet pawl 160 slide against each other, the ratchet wheel 162 remains stationary. The subsequent half-turn of pin 155
8' moves to the left in the range indicated by arrow a. At this time, the tip of the ratchet pawl 160 engages with the gear of the ratchet wheel 162 to rotate the ratchet wheel 162 clockwise. This rotation is transmitted to a gear 168 that meshes with a gear 167 that is integrally connected to the shaft 163 of the ratchet wheel, and keeps the film F pressed against the capstan roller 113' provided on the shaft 169 of this gear at a constant level. I will send the amount. In the field of 16 mm film photography used in this embodiment, there are various film advance amounts for each photograph, but 10 mm and 11.75 mm advance are common. Therefore, in this embodiment, the above-described structure is adopted in order to easily meet the requirements for both feed amounts. In other words, assuming that the outer diameter of the capstan roller is 19.1 mm and the number of teeth of the ratchet wheel is 6, the ratio of the number of teeth of gears 167 and 168 is 1:1 (=50:50) when the feed pitch is 10 mm, and the feed amount is 1:1 (=50:50).
In the case of 11.75 mm, the above objective can be achieved by selecting 1:1.175 (=46:54). Returning to FIG. 3, 176 is a pressing lever of the pinch roller 113 (FIG. 2), a pin 177 implanted at one end of the lever, and a lever 17 engaged with the pin.
8. The shaft 116 is biased counterclockwise (clockwise in FIG. 2) by a tension spring 179. 180 is a pressing lever of the pressure bonding plate 124 (FIG. 2), and a pin 181 is grafted onto one end of the lever.
Lever 182 and tension spring 183 engaged with the pin
This biases the shaft 127 in a counterclockwise direction (clockwise in FIG. 2). 184 is aircraft 101
It is a pressure release lever that swings with a protruding shaft 185 as a reversal shaft, and has a roller 186 at one end that contacts the outer circumferential surface of the cam 156. This lever 184
is rotated counterclockwise by the large outer diameter portion of the cam 156 via the roller 186 during a period corresponding to approximately 1/2 rotation of the gear 154, and the other end portion lifts the end portion 180a of the lever 180. Against the spring 183, the shaft 1
27 clockwise to release the film from the pressure bonding plate 124 against the aperture plate 123. This operation is performed only when the film F is being fed, and when the film is stationary, the film is always pressed against the aperture plate 123 by the pressure bonding plate 124. 187 is aircraft 101
The lever is pivotally supported by a shaft 188 protruding from the lever, and pins 187a and 187b are implanted in a portion thereof to slide and fit into the elongated holes of the levers 178 and 182, respectively. The lever 187 is biased counterclockwise by a torsion spring 189 about the shaft 188, but is held in the position shown in FIG. 3 when the front film chamber opening/closing cover (not shown) is closed. be done. When the opening/closing cover is opened to load film into the film supply chamber, the lever 187 is released from its restraint and is rotated counterclockwise by the torsion spring 189, which causes the levers 176 and 180 to be moved clockwise to release the pinch. Roller 113, pressure bonding plate 124
are retracted from the trajectory of the film F, making it easy to load the film. Reference numeral 190 denotes a film remaining amount warning cam, which is fixed to the shaft 110 of the remaining amount detection lever 109 (FIG. 2). The fan-shaped member 193 on the right side is a pin 192 protruding from the fuselage 101.
A remaining amount scale plate 194 is attached to the arc-shaped side surface of the fan-shaped member 193.
It is designed so that it can be read through a window glass 201 provided in 1. Remaining amount cam 190, fan-shaped member 19
3 have pins 191 and 195 implanted therein, respectively, and connecting rods 196 having holes in which the pins are rotatably fitted are suspended at both ends. Connecting rod 19
A pin 196a is installed approximately in the center of the pin 196a, and is biased rightward by a tension spring 198 hooked to the pin, and as a result, the remaining amount cam 190 and the fan-shaped member 193 receive a clockwise rotational force. . Remaining amount cam 1
At the other end of the rotating shaft 110 fixed to the
The remaining amount detection lever 109 shown in the figure is fixed, and a roller 111 attached to one end of the lever 109 is attached to the reel 10.
Remaining amount cam 1 by contacting film F on 8
90 The position of the fan-shaped member 193 in the rotational direction is determined.
That is, the amount of rotation of the remaining amount cam 190 and the fan-shaped member 193 is determined according to the winding diameter of the film on the reel 108. Therefore, the remaining amount of film in the film supply chamber 102 can be known by reading the remaining amount scale plate 194 through the window glass. Further, when the film winding diameter becomes less than a predetermined value, the remaining amount cam 190 switches the contacts of the micro switch 200 and sounds the buzzer 202 to emit an alarm sound.
It is notified that the amount of film remaining in the film supply chamber 102 is running low. Reference numeral 199 denotes a lever supported by a shaft 203 protruding from the fuselage 101, and a pin 19 that fits into a hole at one end of the lever 197 is attached to a part of the lever.
9a is planted. The lever 199 is biased by a torsion spring 204 to rotate counterclockwise about the shaft 203, but when the opening/closing cover (not shown) of the film supply chamber on the front side is closed, the third lever 199 It is restrained in the position shown. When the opening/closing lid of the film supply chamber is opened to load a film, the lever 199 is released from its restraint and is moved counterclockwise by the torsion spring 204. As a result, the lever 197 is pulled to the left and the elongated hole 197a is moved. The pin 196a comes into contact with the right end of the connecting rod 196, and the connecting rod 196 is also moved to the left. Therefore, since the rotating shaft 110 rotates counterclockwise, the remaining amount detection lever 109 moves outward from the outer periphery of the reel 108. Therefore, the reel can be easily attached to and detached from the film supply shaft 107. Reference numeral 206 denotes a coil spring, the hooks at both ends of which are hooked onto fixing pins 207 protruding from the body 101, and the center portion of which is attached to a V fixed to the film supply shaft 107.
It is mounted on a pulley 205. The frictional resistance between the spring and the V groove of the V pulley 205 provides an appropriate back tension when the film is pulled out, thereby preventing the film from sagging. 208 is the second
When the drive shaft of the counter 134 shown in the figure is rotated approximately 40 degrees clockwise from the outside, the lowest drive wheel 135 of the counter, the reading character wheel 13
6. The number imprinting rings 137 each rotate 36 degrees (1/10 rotation), and the number advances by one. Next, when the external driving force is released, it returns to the indicated position by the force of a spring (not shown). By doing the above operation 10 times, the letter ring for the second lower digit becomes the letter ring for the lower third digit after 100 times, respectively.
It is designed to move 36 degrees. Since these mechanisms are conventionally known, their explanations will be omitted. 20
9, 210, 211 are members for providing power to the counter as described above, and 209 is the drive shaft 20.
a counter drive lever integrally coupled to 8;
A pin 210 projects from the push rod 211 and is rotatably fitted into a hole provided at one end of the counter drive lever. Pin 211 on the right end of push rod 211
One hook of a tension spring 212 is hung on a, and the other hook of the spring is hooked on a pin 209a in the center of the counter drive lever 209. For this reason, the push rod 211 attempts to rotate clockwise about the shaft 210, but its left end abuts the lower side of the film drive pin and remains in the position shown. When the motor M of the camera unit rotates according to a command from the control section 11 of the main body base, the pin 155 rotates once around the rotation axis of the gear 154, but in the first half rotation, the pin 158' is rotated through the connecting rod 158. It moves to the right in an arc of about 65 degrees about axis 163. At this time, the left shoulder of the push rod 211 and the pin 158' engage, and the push rod 211
1 is pushed to the right, the counter drive lever 209 drives the counter drive shaft 208 clockwise, and the counter 134 advances one step. As the motor continues to rotate further and the pin 155 shifts to the upper half rotation, the pin 158' changes to the leftward movement, and accordingly the push rod 211, counter drive lever 209, and counter drive shaft 208
By the action of a return spring (not shown), it returns to its initial state and prepares for subsequent re-operation. 213 is a counter release lever, which is used to advance the film without advancing the counter. That is, the lever 213 has a support shaft 214 that can protrude from the lower body 102.
Its central portion is supported by a shaft, and its right end portion is held horizontally by a tension spring 215. The distal end portion 213b of the release lever extending further downward is connected to the plunger of the solenoid 216. Now, if it becomes necessary to feed the film F without advancing the counter, the solenoid 216 is also energized at the same time as the motor M is energized. When the solenoid 216 is energized, the plunger is attracted, and the counter release lever 213 is rotated to the position shown by the two-dot chain line. Due to this rotational movement, the right end portion 213a of the lever is moved to the counter push rod 21.
1 by hooking the bent part 211b and lowering the push rod 211 to the position shown by the two-dot chain line.
Even when the pin 158' moves to the right, the pin does not engage with the shoulder of the push rod 211.
Therefore, the motor M can feed the film without stepping the counter 134. FIG. 8 shows the state in which each unit is connected to the main body base. Camera unit 1 has connection tube 106
is connected to the film inlet of the processor unit 2, and the film passages of both are connected. Further, the camera unit and the processor unit are electrically connected to the main body base 6 by connecting the connector 148 of the camera unit to the connector 4 of the support unit, and the connector 5' of the processor unit to the connector 5 of the support unit. The processor unit 2 includes a liquid processing section 220 such as a developing section,
It includes a winding and drying processing section 221, a processing liquid storage section 222, a driving section, and the like.

9 to 16 show details of the processor unit. FIG. 9 shows the back chamber on the back side of the processor unit 2 in FIG. This is a loop detector that detects the amount of film and is placed immediately after the entrance of the processor unit. The details of this detector are shown in Figure 12.
It is shown in FIG. In FIG. 13, the film F, which has passed through the film take-up chamber 103 of the camera unit and entered the inside of the processor unit 2 from the connecting pipe 106 through the inlet of the processor unit 2, is transferred to the guide roller 22.
6. Arm 228 rotating around rotation axis 227
is fed to a guide roller 230 through a movable guide roller 229 mounted on the guide roller 230 . Rotating shafts 227 of the rollers 226 and 230 are rotatably supported by a support plate 231. Figure 12 shows support plate 2.
This shows the back side of No. 31. In the same figure, 2
A lever 32 is fixed to the rotating shaft 227, and this lever is urged by a tension spring 233 to rotate counterclockwise about the shaft 227. Reference numeral 234 denotes a loop detection microswitch, which is in an on state when the arm 228 shown in FIG. 13 is in the position shown by the solid line. When there is more than a predetermined amount of film loops in the film winding chamber of the camera unit, the movable guide roller 229 is at the position indicated by the broken line 229'. This is because the film slackens due to the presence of the film loop, so the tension spring 233 causes the lever 232 to rotate around the rotating shaft 227, and the arm 228 fixed to the rotating shaft 227 rotates clockwise around the shaft 227 in FIG. This is because it rotates in the direction. When the guide roller 229 is in the position shown by the broken line, the lever 232
does not operate the microswitch 234, so the microswitch is turned off.

If the number of film loops in the camera unit's take-up chamber is less than a predetermined amount, and the film is being fed by the film drive roller of the processor unit, a strong tension will be applied to the film, causing the film F to advance. As a result, the arm 228 rotates in the counter-time direction, and the roller 229 moves from the broken line position to the solid line position,
As a result, the microswitch 234 is activated and generates an electrical signal indicating that the number of film loops has decreased.

In FIG. 9, 235 is a temperature control section for the developing solution, and 236 is a control section for the drive motor of the processor unit. 237 is a door switch that detects opening/closing of a light-shielding lid (not shown) of the liquid processing section 220. The light-shielding lid is opened when loading film into the processor unit 2, for example. Reference numeral 238 denotes a heating block for controlling the temperature of the developing solution. A narrow liquid flow groove is formed inside this block, and the developing solution is heated to a predetermined temperature while passing through this groove. 239 is a cartridge type heater for heating the block, and 240 is a thermoswitch that cuts off power to the heater when the block is overheated. 241 is a drive mechanism; 242 is a pump mechanism for supplying the processing liquid from the processing liquid storage container to the developing device and the washing device; the pump mechanism is driven by the drive mechanism 241;

Next, details of the drive mechanism will be explained with reference to FIG.

All parts of the processor unit are driven by a single motor _M2 . That is, a blowing fan for drying the film, a pump mechanism for circulating the processing liquid, a film drive roller, and a film winding section in the processor unit are driven by this motor _M2 . The motor _M2 is a double-shaft motor, with a Sirotskov fan 243 for blowing air attached to one shaft, and a pinion 244 for deceleration attached to the other shaft. pinion 24
4 is transmitted to the film drive gear 252 via reduction gears 245 to 251.

The reduction ratio of each gear is set to 1/10 with two-stage reduction. The second stage gear 246 is fixed to the pump drive shaft 253, and the fifth stage gear 246 is fixed to the pump drive shaft 253.
9. A small gear 250 is provided on a speed switching shaft 254, and a film drive gear 252 is fixed to a film drive shaft 255.

Further, a pump drive gear 256 is fixed to the pump drive shaft 253, a ladder wheel 260 is fixed to the film fixing shaft 255, and a speed switching shaft 256 is fixed to the film fixing shaft 255.
4 is rotatably provided with a slack gear 258. The fifth stage gear 249 is a one-way clutch 259
It is provided on the speed switching shaft 254 via the shaft, and when rotated counterclockwise, it meshes with the speed switching shaft 254 and transmits power to the shaft. A left-handed clutch spring 261 is attached to the outer periphery of the loose gear 258.
are engaged and the pawl at the end of the clutch spring is hooked onto the control ring 262, and when the control ring stops rotating, the clutch spring is loosened and disengaged from the loosening gear 258.

Therefore, the clutch spring 261 is connected to the speed switching shaft 25.
4 but if control ring 262 is stopped from rotating, there will be slippage between shaft 254 and spring 261 and shaft 254 will be free to rotate relative to slack gear 249 .

On the other hand, when the control ring 262 is rotated, the loosening gear 258 and the clutch spring 261 are tightened, and the clutch spring and the shaft 254 are connected together. Therefore, by controlling the rotation of control ring 262, transmission of the rotational force of slack gear 258 to shaft 254 can be controlled. FIG. 11 shows a mechanism for controlling the control ring, in which the control ring 262 is provided with a protrusion 262', and by hooking a control lever 263 to this protrusion, the rotation of the control ring is stopped. be able to. lever 263
A feed rate switching solenoid 265 is attached to the end of the control ring, and when the solenoid is energized, the lever 263 rotates and the control ring protrusion 2
62' and lever 263 are disengaged. When the solenoid is de-energized, the lever 263 is returned to its original position by the tension spring 266, and the lever and control ring protrusion 262' are reengaged, stopping rotation of the control ring.

Now, when the rotation of the control ring 262 is stopped, the slack gear 258 is rotated by the fourth stage gear 248, but this rotation is caused by the clutch spring 2.
61 and the slack gear 258 are in a free rotation state, so that the speed is not transmitted to the speed switching shaft 254. Therefore, the rotation of the gear 249 meshing with the reduction gear 248 is transferred to the speed switching shaft 254 via the one-way clutch 259.
The pinion 25 is transmitted to the shaft and is fixed to this shaft.
0 rotates, and the film drive shaft 255 rotates via gears 251 and 252. Therefore, the number of rotations of the film drive shaft 255 is equal to the number of rotations of the motor _M2 1/
(√10) ⁷ = 1/3162 (lower speed).

Next, the solenoid 265 is energized and the protrusion 262'
When the clutch spring 261 is disengaged from the lever 263, the clutch spring 261 loosens and the gear 258 and the speed switching shaft 254
meshes with Therefore, the rotational force of the slack gear 258 is transmitted to the speed switching shaft 254.

On the other hand, the fifth stage gear 249 is the fourth stage gear 249.
8, but the loose gear 25
8 is about 3.16 times higher than the rotation speed of the fifth gear 249, so even if the fifth gear 249 is rotating, the one-way clutch 259 does not mesh with the shaft 254, resulting in a slipping condition. The rotational force of the stage gear is not transmitted to the shaft 254.

On the other hand, the rotational force of the loosening gear 258 is transmitted to the shaft 254, and the film drive shaft 255 rotates at high speed via the gears 250, 251, and 252.

The number of rotations of the film drive shaft 255 at this time is 1/(√10) ⁵ =1/316.2 of the number of rotations of the motor M ₂ . (It becomes faster).

In other words, the drive shaft 255 is rotating at an angular velocity ten times higher than when the control ring 262 stopped rotating. Therefore, by controlling the energization of the solenoid and controlling the rotation of the control ring 262 while the motor _M2 is rotating at a constant speed, the film drive shaft can achieve 1:
10 speed switching can be performed.

Returning to FIG. 10, the ladder wheel 260 of the film drive shaft 255 is connected by a ladder chain 272 to a ladder wheel 270 connected to the film drive roller and a ladder wheel 271 connected to the film winding shaft.

The film drive rollers 275, 276 are made of the same material as the capstan roller 113' of the camera unit, and have the same outer diameter of 19.1 mm. The film drive rollers 275, 276 are arranged in the winding/drying section 221 as shown in FIG. Note that there is no roller in the liquid processing section 220 for driving the film. Gears 275' and 276' are fixed to the shafts of the drive rollers 275 and 276, respectively.
A cam wheel 278 is fixed to the shaft of 6.

Therefore, the rotational force of the rudder wheel 260 is transmitted to the rudder wheel 270 via the rudder chain 272, and the two driving rollers 275, 276 are rotated via the gears 275', 276'. Further, on the outer periphery of the cam wheel 278, protrusions for operating micro switches 279 for detecting film advance are provided at six equal positions. Therefore, the drive roller 27
When 5,276 rotates 1/6, micro switch 2
A pulse signal is output from 79. Drive roller 27
5,276 1/6 rotations corresponds to feeding the film 10 mm as explained in the camera unit. 280 is a film winding shaft, and a friction plate 281 is provided on this shaft.
It rotates together with 0, but is movable in the axial direction. The friction material 28 is on the rudder wheel 271.
2 is attached, and this ladder wheel is rotatably provided with respect to the winding shaft 280.
The friction plate 281 is connected to the friction material 28 by the plate spring 283.
2, and this pressing force can be adjusted with a screw 284 provided on the shaft 280.

Therefore, the winding shaft 280 is connected to the ladder chain 272.
The driving force of the rudder wheel 271 and the friction material 28
2. It is transmitted via the friction plate 281. A film take-up reel 285 is detachably attached to the take-up shaft 280, rotates together with the take-up shaft, and winds up the developed film. Note that power is transmitted from the ladder wheel 271 to the take-up shaft via a friction plate and a friction material;
When the film is wound on the winder 85, the winding diameter of the film changes, and the film feeding speed by the film drive rollers 275, 276 and the film winding speed by the take-up reel change, so that slippage occurs between the winding shaft and the ladder wheel. This prevents the film from being cut, etc.

On the other hand, the air blowing fan 243 attached to the other end of the motor _M2 rotates at high speed due to the drive of the motor, and the air sucked from the air intake port passes through the guide section (not shown) of the processor unit to the film drying section. lead. A heating element is provided in the middle of the drying section to send high-temperature dry air to the film drying section to easily and quickly dry the wet film after development and washing.

A film drying chamber 290 is provided with a slit-shaped opening 291 in a direction perpendicular to the direction in which the film travels, that is, in the width direction of the film.

Figures 14 and 15 show the liquid circulation pump mechanism 24.
This figure shows the details of 2.

In FIG. 14, a pump drive gear 256 fixed to a pump drive shaft 253 of the drive mechanism 241
As mentioned above, is rotating at a rotation speed that is 1/10 of the rotation speed of the drive motor _M2 . This rotational force is applied to the intermediate gear 2
95 to gear 296. gear 29
A gear 297 is fixed to the same rotating shaft as 6,
Gear 296 and gear 297 rotate integrally. This gear 297 is the crankshaft drive gear 298 ₁ , 2
98 ₂ (see Figures 9 and 15).
One crankshaft drive gear 298 ₂ is the intermediate gear 2
Similar crankshaft drive gear 298 ₃ through 99
It's meshing with each other. Crankshaft drive gear 298 ₁ ,
298 ₂ and 298 ₃ are pump drive crankshafts 30
0 (FIG. 15). Therefore, the driving force of the drive mechanism 241 is transmitted to each pump drive crankshaft 300 via each gear.

Incidentally, pump drive crankshafts are fixed to the gears 298 ₁ , 298 ₂ , and 298 _3, respectively, and there are three pumps, each of which is configured in the same way. Reference numeral 301 denotes a pin implanted at the end of the crankshaft 300 at a position offset by Y from the center of rotation.A push rod 302 is rotatably attached to this pin, and a diaphragm 303 is attached to the other end of the push rod. Fixed.

The circumferential edge of this diaphragm has an O-ring shape, and by tightening the diaphragm to the pump upper housing 304 and lower housing 305, the O-ring shaped portion serves as a seal.

The lower housing 305 is also provided with a suction pipe 306 and a discharge pipe 307, each having a one-way valve to form a pump.

Therefore, when the crankshaft drive gear 298 ₁ rotates, the eccentric pin 301 causes the push rod 302 to rotate.

moves up and down. Therefore, the suction pipe 306 and the discharge pipe 3
07, the processing liquid enters the suction pipe 306 in the direction of arrow a, moves to the discharge pipe 307, exits from the discharge pipe 307 in the direction of arrow b, and finally reaches a predetermined level. liquid can be delivered to the location.

Returning to FIG. 8 again, the liquid processing section 220 is connected to the developing device 3.
50, and has water washers 351 and 352. Details of the developing device 350 are shown in FIG. Note that the water washers 351 and 352 are also configured in the same manner as the developing device, so a description thereof will be omitted. In Figure 16, 3

Reference numeral 66 indicates a film guide roller provided at the entrance and exit of the developer tank, and 367 indicates a film guide roller which is normally disposed within the liquid reservoir 361 and is movable up and down. When loading the film, this roller 367 moves to the position 367' shown by the broken line to facilitate the initial loading of the film into the liquid processing section, and after loading the film, moves to the position shown by the solid line to immerse the film in the liquid in the container 361. invite. Reference numeral 370 denotes a nozzle pipe for supplying a developer to the film, and the developer supplied by the pump mechanism described above is discharged from the nozzle. The film F is placed on the guide rollers 365, 3 with the emulsion side facing up.
67,366 and is transferred from left to right.

After the film F exposed by the camera unit passes through the film detector of the processor unit, it first enters the liquid reservoir container 361, and the emulsion surface uniformly contacts the developer in the container 361. Then the slope 362
A developing solution is sprayed onto the film emulsion surface by the nozzle pipe 370 to accelerate development. in this case,
Since the developer is sprayed in the opposite direction to the direction in which the film travels, development is further accelerated compared to other developing methods. Therefore, the film can be sufficiently developed with a relatively short film transport distance, and if the film transport speed is the same, the apparatus can be made more compact than the conventional apparatus.

The developer blown out from the nozzle pipe 370 flows downward along the film surface, moves below the slope 362, and enters the liquid reservoir. The liquid overflowing from the edge 361' of the liquid storage container 361 returns to the storage container 380 in FIG. 8 through the drain port 363, is pumped up again, and the process is repeated. In addition, in Fig. 8,
381 and 382 are washing liquid storage containers. In the above embodiments, a one-bath developing and fixing solution is used as the developer. A developing device and a fixing device may be provided separately. Returning to FIG. 8 again, in the same figure, the light receiving unit 14 that measures the illumination light that illuminates the subject has a diffusion dome 400, and a light receiving element 401 is located on the back of the dome. Generates a proportional electrical signal. This electrical signal changes the operating time of the shutter solenoid 132 and controls the opening time of the shutter 130, thereby constantly applying a constant amount of exposure to the film and keeping the image density on the film constant, regardless of changes in the amount of light from the illumination light source. Make it. however,
The sensitivity of the light-receiving element varies due to manufacturing, so polarizing filters 410 and 411 for adjustment are provided in front of the light-receiving element so that the density on the film is always constant when a standard amount of illumination light is applied. be.
By changing the relative angular position of these two polarizing filters 410 and 411, the amount of light transmitted can be changed.

Next, the operation of the processor camera will be explained with reference to the timing chart of FIG. 17. first,
Each unit is combined to assemble a processor camera, a film is loaded into the supply chamber 102 of the camera unit, and the film is wound onto the take-up reel 285 through a predetermined film transport path of the camera unit and processor unit. After setting the film correctly, first turn on the power switch _S1 at time _t1 (see waveform A in Figure 17).
Relay 593 is turned on via relay drive circuit 592 in FIG. 18, power supply circuit 596 is activated, and power is supplied to all devices (waveform B). When the power supply starts, the motor of the processor unit starts.
_M2 is driven (R waveform), the lamp of the lighting unit 15 is lit (C waveform), and the control unit 1
1 weight indicator lamp (565 in FIG. 18) lights up (G waveform). This weight display lamp 565 is activated when the initial state setting circuit 572 is turned on when power supply starts, and the photographing prohibition memory 577 is turned on.
1 is reset, and the light is turned on until the temperature of the developer reaches a predetermined temperature and the film loop in the winding chamber 103 disappears. When the photographing prohibition memory 571 is reset, the AND gate _G1 is closed and no photographing is performed even if the shutter switch _S8 is turned on while the weight display lamp is on. On the other hand, when the initial state setting circuit 572 is turned on, the loop detection memory 58
Since 0 is set, the feed rate switching solenoid 265 is turned on via the feed solenoid drive circuit 563 (U waveform), and the film in the processor unit is fed at high speed. Also power switch S ₁
When turned on, the processing liquid heating heater 239 is turned on (W waveform) and starts heating the heating block.

As the motor _M2 is driven, the amount of film in the winding chamber 103 of the camera unit decreases, and when the film loop disappears (the film in the winding chamber is tightly stretched), the loop detection switch is activated at time _t2 . 234 is turned on (S waveform), the set pulse generation circuit 526 is activated via the OR gate _G32 , and the motor drive memory 524 is activated.
is set, and the motor M of the camera unit is driven via the motor drive circuit 525 (J waveform). The film is fed blankly by the drive of the motor M, and the film is supplied into the take-up chamber 103. As a result, the film is not wound. The film in the take-up chamber loosens and the loop detection switch 234 turns off. When the motor M rotates a predetermined amount, the motor stop switch 157 is turned on (K waveform), and the motor drive memory 524 is turned on.
is reset and motor M stops. Since the motor _M2 of the processor unit continues to drive, the above operation is repeated the next time there is no more film loop in the winding chamber. Therefore, damage to the film is prevented. On the other hand, when the loop detection switch 234 is turned on, the loop detection memory 580 is reset, the speed switching solenoid 265 is turned off, and the film of the processor unit (U waveform) is switched from high speed to low speed. The reason why the film feed speed of the processor unit is set to a high speed when the power is turned on and is set to a low speed when the loop detection microswitch 234 is turned on is as follows. When the film in the camera unit is loaded into the processor unit, it is uncertain how much film loop there is in the film supply chamber 103 at the beginning of loading, so first, the film feeding speed of the processor unit is set to a high speed and the film feed speed of the processor unit is set to a high speed. reset the amount to zero. Next, switch to low speed:
If the film is fed at a high speed, the loop amount detection micro switch 234 will operate repeatedly in a short period of time, and the film will be repeatedly fed, resulting in a large amount of wasted blank space on the film. Switch to low speed and then micro switch 2
This is to extend the time until 34 is activated. However, when loading film into a camera, it is generally done in a well-lit room, so a certain length of the film from the leading edge is exposed to external light, causing fog. It is necessary to prevent exposure to light. Generally, a length of approximately 1.5 m from the leading edge of the film is defined as the fogged area, so in this embodiment, the fogged area is also defined as a 1.5 m long area from the leading edge of the film. In the above embodiment, the length of the film path from the film supply chamber 102 of the camera unit to the take-up reel 285 of the processor unit is approximately 1.5 m. Therefore, after setting the film and before starting photography, turn on the supply switch _S2 in order to feed the film in the foggy area without photographing it at the exposure section (feeding the film through the exposure section without photographing). do. When switch _S2 is turned on, AND gate _G3 opens, and set pulse generation circuit 5
A motor drive memory 528 is set via 27, and motor M is driven via a motor drive circuit 525. The film is fed by the drive of the motor M, and in response to this film feeding, a pulse is generated from the film feeding detection microswitch 175 of the camera unit, and this pulse is the first pulse.
It is counted by a counter 530. When the count content of the first counter 530 reaches "25" during this idle feeding, the switch composed of connectors 5 and 5' is in the on state, so the AND gate G ₆ opens, and after this, the motor stop switch 157 is turned on. When turned on, AND gate _G7 opens, motor drive memory 528 is reset, and motor M stops. Therefore, when used as a processor camera, the film in the camera unit is automatically fed 25 frames by turning on the supply switch. The first counter 530 is reset by the opening of AND gate _G7 . Note that when used as a processor camera, the leading edge of the film is manually attached to the take-up reel 285 of the processor unit in advance, so 150 frames of film are fed in advance.
The amount of automatic blank feed by supply switch _S2 may be as small as about 25 frames. On the other hand, when the supply switch _S2 is turned on when the camera is used as a normal camera without a processor function without connecting the processor unit, the motor M is driven in the same manner as described above. Since connectors 5 and 5' are in the OFF state, AND gate _G6 is always closed. When the count content of the first counter 530 reaches "150" during film feeding, the AND gate _G5 is opened, the motor drive memory 528 is reset by turning on the motor stop micro switch 157, and the motor M is stopped. Therefore, when used as a normal camera, the film in the camera unit is automatically fed by 150 frames, and the amount of feed is different from that of a processor camera. When the film in the camera unit is being fed, the supply indicator lamp 9 on the front of the support unit lights up (F waveform).
To notify a user that film is being fed.

Next, at time _t3 , the temperature of the developer decreases to a predetermined temperature (30~
32° C.), a signal indicating that the liquid temperature has reached a predetermined temperature is output from the thermo switch 240 (V waveform), and the liquid temperature detection memory 570 is set. As a result, AND gate G ₁₆ opens and photography is prohibited memory 57.
1 is set. By setting the shooting prohibition memory, the weight display lamp 565 goes out (G waveform), and the AND gate _G1 is opened, the shooting prohibition is canceled, and shooting can be performed by turning on the shutter switch _S8 . can.

Next, when the shutter switch _S8 is turned on at time _t4 (D waveform), the trigger pulse generation circuit 520 is activated via the AND gate _G1 , a trigger pulse is generated from here, and this signal is used for the shutter. The timer 521 operates, and the shutter solenoid 132 is turned on (L waveform) for the operating time of this timer, and the subject is photographed on film. At the fall of the output signal of the shutter timer 521, the set pulse generating circuit 523 is turned on, and the motor drive memory 524 is set via the OR gate _G30 . Therefore, after photographing is completed, the motor M is driven via the motor drive circuit 525 (J waveform),
The film is sent. When the film has been advanced by one frame, the motor drive memory 524 is reset by turning on the motor stop switch 157, and the motor M is stopped. Further, when the motor stop switch 157 is turned on, the counter imprinting and mark imprinting timers 535 and 536 are turned on. At this time, if the symbol imprinting switch S ₄ is turned on, the AND gates G ₈ and G ₉ are opened, and the counter imprinting lamp 539 and the mark imprinting lamp 540 are turned on via the lamp drive circuits 537 and 538. (MP waveform), the frame number and mark are imprinted on the film. However, if the symbol imprinting switch _S4 is turned off, each lamp will not light up and the frame number and mark will not be imprinted on the film. In addition,
Since the AND gate _G1 is closed while the motor M is running, no shooting will occur even if the shutter switch _S8 is turned on.

Thereafter, the above operation is repeated every time the shutter switch _S8 is turned on to take a picture.

Pulses are generated from film advance detection microswitches 175 and 279 in response to film advance from the camera unit and processor unit.
This pulse is not counted by the second counter 560 because the AND gates G ₁₄ and G ₁₅ are closed until the photographing prohibition is canceled, that is, until the photographing prohibition memory 571 is set. After the photography prohibition memory 571 is set, micro switch 1
AND gate that generates a pulse from 75,279
G ₁₄ and G ₁₅ are opened and this pulse is sent to the second counter 560. One micro switch 17
The pulses from the second microswitch 279 are added and counted by the second counter 560, and the pulses from the other microswitch 279 are subtracted by the second counter 560.

Now, when shooting multiple times in a fast cycle, the film in the processor unit is being fed at a low speed at the beginning of shooting, so there is only a difference between the amount of film taken up by the processor unit and the amount of film fed into the camera unit. The amount of film in the winding chamber 103 of the camera unit increases, and a large amount of film loops are formed within the winding chamber. Therefore, as the amount of film in the winding chamber increases, the second counter 560
The count value becomes larger and the count content becomes “150”.
(time _t7 ), a signal is output from the decoder 561, the OR gate _G34 opens, and the solenoid 265 for switching the feed rate is turned on via the solenoid drive circuit 563 (u waveform). The film is again fed at high speed. After that, if you perform the shooting operation in a slow cycle, the winding chamber 1
When the number of film loops in 03 decreases and the count content of the second counter 560 becomes less than "150", the solenoid 265 is turned off and the film feeding speed is switched to a low speed. However, if the shooting operation continues at a fast cycle after switching to high-speed feed, the film loop will further increase, and when the count content of the second counter 560 reaches "200" (time t ₈ ), the decoder 562 A signal is output from the gate, the or gate _G37 opens, and the weight display lamp 565 lights up. Photographing is prohibited while this lamp 565 is lit. After this, the second counter 5
When the count of 60 becomes smaller than "200" (time _t9 ), the weight display lamp 565 goes out,
You can take pictures again. Thereafter, depending on the time interval (shooting interval) at which the shutter switch _S1 is turned on, an operation indicating one of the states _t4 to _t7 , _t7 to _t8 , and _t8 to _t9 is performed. Here, a case will be explained in which the spacer switch _S7 is turned on during shooting. When the space switch _S7 is turned on while the photographing is possible and the motor M is stopped, the AND gate _G2 opens and the set pulse generation circuit 5 is turned on.
26 operates, the motor drive memory 524
is set, and motor M is driven. When the motor M rotates by a predetermined amount and the film is fed by one frame, the motor M is stopped by turning on the motor stop switch 157. Therefore, the film has been skipped by one frame, and an unexposed blank area can be formed between the frames of the film. The interval between these blank spaces can be changed depending on the number of times the space switch _S7 is turned on.

Also, if you interrupt the shooting process, the amount of film in the camera unit's winding chamber will decrease because the film in the processor unit is being fed.
When the film loop disappears, the loop detection switch 234 is turned on, and the motor M is turned on as described above.
is driven, the film is fed by one frame, and the film is supplied to the take-up chamber 103. Further, when the loop detection switch 234 is turned on, the second counter 560 is reset. The reason why the second counter 560 is reset by the signal from the loop detection switch 234 is that when the film is advanced by one frame (10 mm) in the camera unit and processor unit, one pulse is sent from the camera and processor switches 175 and 279. However, it occurs in the camera's winding chamber 10.
a second counter 5 for measuring the amount of film in 3;
Since the calculation result of 60 may differ from the actual film amount due to errors in mechanical parts, etc., the counter should be reset when the loop detection switch 234 detects that there is no longer a film loop in the winding chamber. This is to eliminate problems caused by errors.

Note that the second counter 560 does not count pulses until the photography prohibition memory 571 is set, that is, the developer reaches a temperature that allows for predetermined development, and the loop detection switch 234 is turned on once after the power is turned on. .

Next, the step selection switch _S3 and the reversal switch _S9 will be explained.

Now, if step selection switch _S3 and inversion switch _S9 are left in the OFF state without being operated, exclusive OR gate _G40 will close, NAND gate _G41 will open, AND gate _G10 will open, and lamp drive circuit 552
The step display lamp 555 lights up through the second
It is displayed that the contents of the symbol imprinting counter 134 in the figure are changing. On the other hand, since the counter non-advancing solenoid 216 is in the off state, the motor M and the counter drive shaft 208 are coupled, and the counter advances in conjunction with the drive of the motor M, and a different frame number is assigned to each frame. It can be imprinted.

Next, when step selection switch S ₃ is turned on, exclusive OR gate G ₄₀ opens and solenoid drive circuit 5
Counter non-stepping solenoid 21 via 57
6 turns on and AND gate G ₁₁ opens,
A non-progress display lamp 556 is lit via a lamp drive circuit 553 to indicate that the contents of the symbol imprinting counter do not change. solenoid 2
16 turns on, the counter release lever 213 shown in FIG. 3 rotates, and the connection between the motor M and the counter drive shaft 208 is severed, and even if the motor M is driven, the counter does not advance. Therefore, even if you take pictures one after another in this state and copy the contents of the counter onto the film, the frame numbers of each frame on the film will be the same. Next, when the inversion switch _S9 is turned on while the advance selection switch _S3 is turned off and the counter is advanced while shooting, the AND gate _G13 opens and the contents of the binary counter 550 are changed to " 1”, a signal is output from its output, exclusive OR gate G ₄₀ opens, and NAND gate opens.
G ₄₁ opens intermittently at pulse intervals of oscillator 551. As a result, the counter non-stepping solenoid 216 is turned on via the solenoid drive circuit 557, and even if the motor M is driven, the contents of the symbol imprinting counter do not change. Also and gate
G ₁₀ opens intermittently like Nand Gate G ₄₁ ,
The progress display lamp 555 blinks. When the film is fed after exposure and the motor stop micro switch 157 is turned on, the binary counter 550
is reset, exclusive or gate G ₄₀ is closed,
The symbol imprinting counter is returned to its original state in which the contents are incremented. Therefore, when the step selection switch _S3 is turned off and the function of making the counter move in increments is selected, turning on the reversing switch _S9 temporarily changes the state from incrementing to not incrementing. be able to. In other words, the function of the step selection switch can be temporarily reversed by the inversion switch. If you turn off the advance selection switch _S8 and turn on the reverse switch _S9 by mistake, press the reverse switch _S9 again before taking a picture and the contents of the binary counter 550 will be changed to "0'', it is possible to return to the original state of incrementing the contents of the symbol imprinting counter without outputting a signal. If you turn on the inversion switch _S9 while shooting with the advance selection switch _S3 on, _the symbol imprinting counter will not advance in the same way as described above. The function is temporarily reversed to a state where the counter is incremented.

Finally, the case where the power switch is turned off after photographing is completed will be explained.

At time _t11 , when the power switch _S1 is turned off, a logical "1" signal is input to one input terminal of the AND gate _G20 , but the shutter trigger generated by the first shooting operation is Since shutter memory 597 has been reset by the pulse, AND gate _G20 is in a closed state. Therefore, even if the power switch _S1 is turned off, the relay 593 remains on, and the power supply circuit 5
Power is supplied to the entire device by 96. on the other hand,
The third counter 59 is turned off by turning off the power switch _S1 .
0 is reset. In the processor unit 2, the film continues to be fed, and as a result, when there are no more film loops in the film take-up chamber 103 of the camera unit 1, the loop detection switch 234 is turned on, and this signal opens the AND gate _G19 to detect the loop. Memory 581 is set. Setting of loop detection memory 581 and power switch S ₁
By turning OFF, the AND gate is activated every time a pulse is generated from the film advance detection micro switch 279.
G ₁₈ opens and this pulse is sent to the third counter 590
is counted. Further, when the loop detection switch 234 is turned on, the motor M is driven as described above, and the film is skipped by one frame. The above operation is repeated, and when the loop detection switch 234 is activated 150 times, the film is fed 150 times, the count content of the third counter 590 becomes "150", the OR gate G ₃₆ is opened by the signal from the decoder 591, and the relay 593 is turned off, and power is removed from all equipment. That is, after the final exposed area of the film reaches the take-up reel 285 of the processor unit, the power supply is automatically cut off. Therefore, when you turn off the power switch after shooting, all the frames you photographed will be completely developed, fixed, washed, and dried, and then the power will be turned off automatically, making operation extremely easy and preventing mistakes. can be prevented. Note that the present invention is applicable not only to processor cameras but also to copying machines and the like that transfer an image formed on a photoreceptor to transfer paper.

The present invention as described above combines the switching states of the selection switch and the reversal switch to record a different search number for each document each time it is recorded sequentially, or to perform the same search on a group of related documents. It is possible to record the service number, and there is no fear of making a mistake in switching operations, making these operations easy.
