摘要:
An apparatus for making a low volume photographic material processing apparatus employing a rack and a tank out of an existing larger volume photographic processing apparatus. The converted photographic processing apparatus will contain a smaller volume of the same photographic solution that was previously used in non-converted processing tanks.

A method of processing an imagewise exposed silver halide photographic element comprising developing and desilvering the photographic element in a low volume thin tank processor wherein the processor operates at 15% or less of maximum production capacity.
摘要:
An apparatus for processing photosensitive materials, which comprises: a tank through which a processing solution is to be pumped; a rack having integral means to facilitate its insertion and removal from the tank, the rack and the tank are relatively dimensioned so that a small volume for holding processing solution and photosensitive material is formed between the rack and the tank; means for circulating the processing solution through the small volume; a first plurality of rollers for moving the photosensitive material into or out of the small volume; a second plurality of rollers connected to the rack; a third plurality of rollers connected to the tank, wherein the second and third plurality of rollers move the photosensitive material through the small volume; means for driving the second plurality of rollers; and means for preventing processing solution from flowing between the driving means and the second plurality of rollers to reduce the space that would otherwise be filled by the processing solution.

摘要:
A photographic processing apparatus for processing a photosensitive material with a processing solution including first and second processing ingredients includes a processing tank for holding the processing solution and for processing the photosensitive material. The used processing solution is discharged from the processing tank into a separator where the second processing ingredient is removed from the processing solution leaving the first processing solution. The first processing solution is circulated back to the processing tank.
摘要:
A method for selecting additional data storage media for demount in an idle automated storage library, and an automated storage library and program product therefor are disclosed. The method permits the advanced demount of storage media when one or more of the occupied peripheral storage devices remains inactive for a relatively long predetermined time. Storage media may be demounted to service a pending mount request, provided the peripheral storage devices in which the media are mounted are inactive. A storage medium may also be demounted to create an unoccupied peripheral storage device, even though no mount request is pending, when all of the peripheral storage devices are occupied and one or more of such devices remains inactive for a relatively short predetermined time. In addition, regardless of the existence of a pending mount request or of the occupancy status of the peripheral storage devices, the storage medium in each of the occupied peripheral storage devices remaining inactive for the relatively long predetermined time is demounted and transferred to a storage cell in the library. Thus, during long idle periods, the library will not continue to use the resources of inactive peripheral storage devices. Storage media may also be spun down, but not removed from the disc drive.
摘要:
A method that provides a motion picture promotional item using digital data at an exhibition site. The method includes receiving motion picture digital data at the exhibition site; and receiving supplemental data transmitted along with the motion picture digital data, the supplemental data to be used for forming the promotional item. Additionally the method stores the supplemental data in a memory accessible from the exhibition site, and forms the promotional item according to the supplemental data in response to a user command.
摘要:
A method of providing an image on a media having a image-receiving layer and a protective overlayer, comprising the steps of providing an image on the image-receiving and providing machine-readable indicia on said protective overlayer by varying the temperature of a thermal head used to apply the protective overlayer.
摘要:
A method is taught that provides for transmucosal delivery of a biological cargo and optical molecular imaging probes to a subject animal or human. At least one biological cargo-laden nanoparticle imaging probe is provided in a form that will be absorbed via mucosal tissue. The biological cargo-laden nanoparticle imaging probe is delivered to the mucosal tissue of the animal or human. The method further may include steps of providing a support member adapted to receive the subject in an immobilized state; positioning the subject on the support member; and after the delivering of the imaging probe, imaging the immobilized subject using a multimodal imaging system.
