ABSTRACT:
A photosensitive material processing apparatus is provided in which the structure thereof is simple, a plurality of types of photosensitive materials can be reliably guided in accordance with the width of the photosensitive material to be conveyed, and the guide width changing operation can be easily effected. A wide film F1 can receive driving force in a state in which the film F1 is nipped between a collar portion 50 having a larger diameter and a circumferential surface of a roller 26. Because side plates 20, 22 serve as width guides of the film F1, the film F1 is stably conveyed. In a case in which a narrow film F2 is processed, a bearing 32 is moved so that a protruding portion 46 of the bearing 32 is inserted through a concave portions 48 which is located closer to the roller 26. Accordingly, the collar portion 50 is accommodated within a groove portion 54, and a collar portion 52 having a smaller diameter contacts the circumferential surface of the roller 26 so that the narrow film F2 is nipped between the circumferential surface of the collar portion 52 and the roller 26. Further, the end surface of the collar portion 50 having a larger diameter serves as a guide. Therefore, the narrow film F2 can also be stably conveyed.
