- Abstract
- It is generally conceded that the present 5/16-in. diameter shaft and 1/8-in. drive key on present film reel handling equipment such as magazines, rewinds, etc., are inadequate to support and drive 2000-ft reels of 35-mm film. Much unnecessary film damage is caused by the reel wobble, backlash, and poor alignment caused by this situation. This paper describes an improved reel design featuring a 1-in. diameter splined hub shaft opening and an automatic ball and groove locking device to provide accurate lateral alignment and eliminate manually operated keys on reel shafts. To reduce film shipping damage, a design is suggested for an exchange reel shipping case with a center shaft passing through the 1-in. openings in the hubs of the new reels.
