Abstract: A system for handling slides having a tray moving on a carriage with seats for the slides and with a tray moving mechanism, a slide loading arm, and a slide holding frame having a slide loading arm driving motor. There are outstretched Maltese crosses on the lower side of the tray of the slide feeder and a crank is arranged in the carriage, opposite to and parallel with the crosses. The slide loading arm is arranged movably and tiltably above and a supporting plate is arranged movably and tiltably below the slide holder. The slide holding frame has a lifting means for tilting the slide loading arm and the supporting plate. The lifting means is actuated by a controller arranged on the disk of the crank.

Abstract: The invention relates to a system for handling slides comprising a tray moving on a carriage provided with seats for the slides and with a tray moving mechanism; a slide loading arm; and a slide holding frame provided with a slide loading arm driving motor, wherein the slide holder (30) is provided with slide holding elements; there are outstretched Maltese crosses (13) on the lower side of the tray (6 ) of the slide feeder (1) and a crank (14) is arranged in the carriage (4), opposite to and parallel with the crosses (13), said crank being coupled to said crosses; said slide loading arm (9) is arranged movably and tillable above (30) and a supporting plate (11) is arranged movably and tiltable below the slide holder, said supporting plate cooperating with said slide loading arm. The slide holding frame (7) is provided with lifting means for tilting the slide loading arm (9) and the supporting plate (11), said lifting means being actuated by controlling means arranged on the disk (15) of the crank (14).
