Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] (Field of Industrial Application) The present invention relates to a drying device for disk film, and in particular, a device for drying the film after it has been developed in a batch method, washed with water, and drained after the subsequent processing steps. Regarding.

(Prior Art) A processing solution adheres to the film after final processing with a stabilizing solution in a disk film developing machine. The disk film in this state is transferred to the drying chamber in the processing machine, and in parallel with the water removal process by rotating the film, hot air is blown onto the film surface from the bottom of the drying chamber to remove water from the film and dry the film. Work was being carried out at the same time.

(Problem to be solved by the invention) When draining and drying are performed in parallel in a drying chamber installed in a conventional disk film processing machine, water droplets adhering to the film surface are removed by the rotation of the film. The process liquid scatters around the film, increases the humidity in the drying chamber, and as a result, the efficiency of film drying work is significantly reduced.In addition, hot air is blown onto the film surface while the processing liquid is sparsely attached to the film surface. Due to forced drying, the drying process of the film varies locally and over time, and this leaves uneven processing on the film surface, which is a major problem in achieving a uniform dry finish of the film. Ta.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a disk film drying apparatus which solves the above-mentioned problems of the conventional apparatus and can quickly dry the film and achieve a uniform drying finish.

(Means for solving the problem) In order to achieve this objective, the present invention has the following configuration. That is, the disc film drying device according to the present invention which adopts the batch method houses a battery and a motor in a holder, and has a film mounting shaft that is connected to the rotating shaft of the motor and that protrudes beyond the end of the holder. The handy-type draining unit, on which the boss part of the disk film is inserted and attached, places the disk film that has been drained in advance in the drying air blowing area of the dryer, and uses a fixing member installed in a part of the dryer. The dryer is characterized in that the holder portion of the drainer unit is fixedly mounted on the dryer.

(Function) The present invention removes the water droplet prevention cover attached to the rotating disk film of the drainer unit after the draining operation is completed, and this handy type drainer unit is designed to prevent drying from the drying air of the dryer. A disk film is placed in a rotating state and exposed under the blowing region, thereby drying the film evenly and uniformly in all parts of the film, and more quickly.

(Example) Next, a specific example of the disk film drying apparatus according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

In the figure, reference numeral 1 is a handy type disc film draining unit that uses a batch method.A battery 3 and a small motor 4 are built into the cylindrical holder 2.The small motor 4 is located at the tip of the holder 2. A mounting shaft 5 that is directly connected to the rotating shaft of the mounting shaft 5 is provided in a protruding manner, and a protrusion 6 is protruded from the surface of the mounting shaft 5 in the axial direction.

8 is disk film, boss 9 of film 8
A notch 10 is formed in the mounting shaft 5 to fit with a protrusion 6 raised on the mounting shaft 5 surface. Mount the mounting shaft 5 in a laminated manner on the mounting shaft 5.
In the drawing, three disc films 8 are mounted on the mounting shaft 5 in a non-rotating state, and the film 8 on the mounting shaft 5 is pivoted to the tip of the mounting shaft 5. After the film is attached, it is prevented from being removed by a small retaining rod 11 that is tilted down in a direction perpendicular to the attachment axis.

Reference numeral 12 denotes a water droplet prevention cover that is detachably attached to the holder 2 while holding the disk film 8 on the attachment shaft 5. To show an example of this removable cover 12, this cover 12 has a bowl shape, and a cylindrical boss 14 that protrudes inwardly into the inside of the cover is present at the center of the bottom part 13 constituting the cover 12. As a result, a cylindrical insertion hole 15 is formed, and an annular water reservoir groove 17 is formed between the boss portion 14 and the peripheral wall 16 constituting the cover 12.

The handy type holder 2, which has the disk film 12 mounted on its tip mounting shaft 5, has a bowl-shaped cover 12 attached from its rear end (the part opposite to the mounting shaft).
Most of the holder 2 protrudes beyond the bottom 13 of the bowl-shaped cover 12, and due to the deep insertion of the holder 2, the stopper 7 provided near the tip of the holder 2 becomes bowl-shaped. abuts against the end face of the inward cylindrical boss 14 of the cover 12,
Insertion beyond this limit is restricted by position. At this time, the disk film 8 attached to the mounting shaft 5 of the holder 2 is completely held within the bowl-shaped cover 12, while the holder 2, which protrudes from the bottom of the bowl-shaped cover 12, is held in place by the operator's hand. grasped,
The bottom of the bowl-shaped cover 12 is supported by a part of the hand, and the holder 2 and the bowl-shaped cover 12 are assembled. Using the centrifugal force generated by the high-speed rotation of the disc film 8, the scattered water droplets are captured by the peripheral wall 16 of the cover, and the adhering water droplets accumulate in the annular water reservoir groove 17. Thus, after the draining operation is completed, the bowl-shaped cover 12 descends along the holder 2 due to its own weight and is removed from the draining unit 1.
are easily removed and separated.

Draining unit 1 of a batch-type disk film with the film 8 still mounted on the mounting shaft 5 after the water-drying work on the film has been completed and the water droplet scattering prevention cover has been removed from the water-drying unit.
The disc film 8 is positioned in the drying air region from the drying air outlet 21 of the dryer 20, and the draining unit 1 is installed using the fixing member 23 installed in a part of the casing 22 of the dryer 20.
Then, the holder 2 is fixed, and the draining unit 1 is fixed to the dryer 20. At this time, the holder 2 of the draining unit 1 is made of a magnetic member, and the fixing member 23 is made of a permanent magnet.
The work of fixing to 0 becomes even easier.

Further, by configuring the fixing member 23 with a suction cup, the fixing operation of the draining unit 1 can be easily accomplished like a permanent magnet.

In order to facilitate attachment and detachment of the water droplet scattering prevention cover 12, it is desirable that the fixing member 23 be of a type that achieves the intended purpose only with a member installed on the dryer 20 side.

(Effects of the invention) In the present invention, when removing the cover for preventing water droplet scattering, which was attached to hold the disk film portion, the draining unit itself was removed. The film can be dried evenly by attaching it to the dryer, placing a fully exposed film section that has been previously drained under the drying air region of the dryer, and then rotating the film. Without,
Moreover, the drying process is further accelerated, work efficiency is further improved, and uniform drying process without uneven drying of the film is ensured.

In addition, this draining unit uses a handy type mechanism with a battery and motor housed inside the holder, making the work of the batch method easier and more convenient. By placing this draining unit independently under the drying air area, the work efficiency is significantly improved compared to drying in a closed dryer, and the drying status can be easily checked visually, resulting in a large number of drying operations. It exhibits a remarkable effect on the efficient drying of disk film in all aspects.
