Problems solved by technology

It is likely that the continuous photo film or photo filmstrip is fogged by pressure, scratched or damaged.
A life of the roller is short, so that each roller must be replaced with an unused one very frequently.
However it is difficult to cut or scrape a ceramic product into a complicated shape due to the considerable hardness of the ceramics.
Ceramics are unsuitable for shaping the roller which includes a roller core and flanges on respective ends of the roller core, and in which a diameter of the roller core is partially changed.
Moreover a problem lies in that zirconia stabilized by use of yttria is likely to collect static charge electrically.
However there is a problem in the guide rail according to the related art in that precision in regulating the continuous photo film in the width direction is likely to become low.
The cost for the manufacturing apparatus is thus high.
It is however extremely difficult to cut and scrape a complicated shape of a ceramic member, because of the hardness of the ceramic.
Pressure fogging and scratches are likely to occur, which would damage the image quality of the continuous photo film 11.
It is likely that the continuous photo film or photo filmstrip is fogged by pressure, scratched or damaged.

Embodiment Construction

according to the related art was also produced, which included a roller body with a coating of a hard chromium plating. Comparative Example F was similarly evaluated.

[0045] The hard material used in the hardness reinforcer layer 32 of Samples A-E was as indicated below:

[0046] Sample A: aluminum oxide (alumina);

[0047] Sample B: aluminum oxide (alumina) and titanium oxide (titania);

[0048] Sample C: chromium oxide;

[0049] Sample D: tungsten carbide and cobalt;

[0050] Sample E: tungsten carbide and nichrome.

[0051] As a result, the conveying rollers of Samples A-E had only 1 / 6 as much an abraded amount of the surface as Comparative Example F in contact with the continuous photo film. It was confirmed that the conveying roller of the present invention had higher resistance to abrasion than the related art, and had six (6) or more times as long a life as the related art.

[0052] Despite those effects derived from the use of the ceramics, the ceramics characteristically have a comparatively gre...

Abstract

Continuous photo film includes a support of resin film having a back surface. A photosensitive layer of photographic emulsion is disposed on a surface of the support opposite to the back surface. A conveying roller conveys the continuous photo film. The conveying roller includes a roller body of metal. A hardness reinforcer layer is formed on a surface of the roller body by thermal spraying of ceramic or cermet, so that the roller body surface is prevented from being scratched or ground by the back surface of the film.

Description

[0001] This is a Continuation-In-Part of application Ser. No. 09 / 045,825 filed Mar. 23, 1998, the entirety of which is incorporated herein by reference.[0002] 1. Field of the Invention[0003] The present invention relates to a conveying roller for photosensitive material, and a method of producing the same. More particularly, the present invention relates to a conveying roller for photosensitive material, which has high resistance to abrasion and can be produced easily, and a method of producing the same.[0004] 2. Description of the Related Art[0005] Photosensitive material, in general, is constituted by a support and a photosensitive layer of photographic emulsion, which is applied as a coating to, or deposited to, the support. According to various kinds of the support, there are plural examples of photosensitive material, including photo film, dry plate, and photographic paper. The photo film has the support produced from film of resin. Types of the photo film includes a roll photo...
