- Abstract
- In a previous paper a rack was described that provided for continuous motion of a 200-ft. length of motion picture film during processing but could be used with the rack-and-tank equipment. The purpose of this roller rack was to give a type of treatment in processing essentially similar to that given by a continuous machine while retaining the features of batch equipment that are helpful in experimental processing. The rack previously described included a built-in driving motor and reduction gear, an arrangement that was most feasible for a single unit. With more extensive use it became desirable to have multiple units operated from stationary drives at the tanks and at the loading and unloading stations. A new design has been worked out in which the weight of the rack was reduced greatly by the use of stationary drives. Further reduction in weight was attained by the substitution of tensioning springs for the weighted supporting beam associated with the movable lower shaft in the earlier model. This shaft was mounted upon the frame by lever arms in such a way as to use the torsional rigidity of the shaft itself to maintain it parallel to the upper shaft while allowing it the necessary vertical movement.
