ABSTRACT:
A film transporting apparatus for a film processing system. The apparatus includes a pair of frame members pivotably connected to each other to be opened and closed, a transport mechanism provided to each of the frame members and operable to transport a film along a predetermined film transport passage when the frame members are closed, an optical sensor for detecting film information including a light emitting portion provided in one of the frame members and a light receiving portion provided in the other frame member, positioning engaging portions provided respectively to the frame members and coming into engagement with each other in association with a pivotal movement of the frame members to a closed state. The apparatus further includes a movable frame member movably provided to one of the frame members. This movable frame member supports the positioning engaging portions and the light emitting portion or the light receiving portion and allows relative movement between the positioning engaging portions provided respectively to the pair of frame members.
