ABSTRACT:
A photosensitive material drying apparatus includes rollers forming a film transport passage and warm-air supplying chambers respectively disposed in the vicinity of the rollers. A pair of warm-air discharging portions is formed in each warm-air supplying chamber in such a manner as to straddle the roller and project toward the film transport passage. Each warm-air discharging portion blows warm air onto a film portion in proximity to and upstream of a roller-contacting portion of the film or a film portion in proximity to and downstream of another roller-contacting portion of the film. An exhaust hole for exhausting the warm air blown onto the film away from the transport passage side is formed in the warm-air supplying chamber between extensions of the warm-air discharging portions. A warm-air exhaust portion for exhausting the warm air blown onto the film is formed between adjacent ones of the warm-air supplying chambers as well. Accordingly, the warm air blown onto the film can be exhausted efficiently from the vicinity of the photosensitive material.
