Abstract: A perforator apparatus for continuous photo film includes a perforator unit having a punch and a die. The perforator unit is disposed between first and second suction chambers. The photo film is extended past each of the suction chambers. A blower applies suction of air through the suction chambers, to apply tension to the photo film through the perforator unit. The perforator unit is disposed between a feed roller and a sprocket roller, which convey intermittently the photo film by a punching length. A first pass roller continuously conveys the photo film into the first suction chamber. A first loop of the photo film in the first suction chamber is maintained with a length substantially of an arc of a semi-circle defined between the first pass roller and the feed roller. A second pass roller continuously conveys the photo film from the second suction chamber.

Abstract: A moving optical system assembly is disposed under a contact glass for supporting a document on the upper surface of a frame of a copying machine, and comprises a moving frame 2 equipped with a source of light 4, and a document sensor arm 10 which undergoes expansion or contraction accompanying the movement of the moving frame 2, wherein a transparent electrically conducting film 20 is laminated on the upper surface of the document sensor arm 10. This assembly effectively prevents dust from adhering on the lower surface of the contact glass.
