  • Patent number: 5742863
    Abstract: When a photo film package is inserted into a film holder body, a clip abuts against a slide lever to move the slide lever, whereby stopper pieces are projected into a passing area. When the photo film package is inserted into the final position, the clip is engaged with engageable pawls. At the time of photographing, a light shielding envelope is pulled out to expose a film F. During the operation of pulling out the light shielding envelope, a stopper tape abuts against the stopper pieces, a slide plate is slidably moved through the pulling force of the light shielding envelope, a control plate interlocking this movement is moved, and push vanes of the control plate push guide vanes, whereby the engageable pawls are retracted from the positions of being engaged with the clips. When the slide plate is moved, a push plate is raised to push a film unit toward a top lid.

  • Patent number: 5448324
    Abstract: A sheet film pack has a pack housing for receiving a plurality of sheet film units, a lid for closing an opening of the pack housing, a film recovery mouth for recovering exposed sheet films, and a cap for closing the film recovery mouth and holding the lid in the close position. A film pack holder holds the sheet film pack in a sliding tray which is slidable in a holder housing. A cover having an exposure aperture is hinged to the holder housing and pivotally opened for loading the sheet film pack. When the cover is closed, the cap is released from the lid and the pack housing, and the cap is held in the holder housing. By sliding the lid out of and then back into the holder housing, the topmost sheet film unit is positioned in the exposure aperture and pressed by the lid into proper position.

  • Patent number: 5002385
    Abstract: A target device used in an eye movement testing device made up of a light group and a refractor. The light group includes a plurality of light sources lined-up side by side behind an window which opens in the front wall of the casing of the testing device, and the refractor is installed to cover the window from the outside of the casing and face the eye to be examined. When the light sources are successively lit on and off, moving virtual images of the light sources are created so that the images which are expanded (to be longer or higher than the light sources) can be seen through the refractor. Thus, the eye movement (nystagmus) induced when the eye follows these types of moving images, is observed.
