An apparatus for developing a dental x-ray film which is packaged in a light-proof envelope having two covering surfaces, in which a tear strip is formed on the covering surfaces at an edge common to the package and the covering surfaces are joined to one another so as to be easily pulled apart at their two edges running parallel to the edge with the tear strips, the apparatus having a developing tank with a developing frame underneath an entry slot in which the dental x-ray film is to be inserted. Above the entry slot leading into the developing tank and in line with the latter, the developing apparatus has an insertion shaft for the package with the dental x-ray film, which is open at the insertion end which lies across the plane of the direction of insertion of the dental x-ray film into the developing tank and at right angles to the top of the developing tank, and into which slots for receiving the tear strips of the package lead from opposite sides, these two slots being at the same time open at the insertion end.
Apparatus for developing a dental x-ray film which is packaged in a light-proof envelope having two cover leaves, in which a tear strip is formed on each of the cover leaves at an edge common to the package and the cover leaves are joined together for easy separation at their two edges running parallel to the edge with the tear strips, said apparatus comprising a developing tank with a developing frame underneath an entry slot in which the dental x-ray film is to be inserted, a gate body above the entry slot leading into the developing tank and in line therewith, the gate body having an insertion shaft for the package with the dental x-ray film, which is open at an insertion end lying across the plane of the direction of entry of the dental x-ray film into the developing tank and at right angles to the top of the developing tank, and into which there leads from opposite sides slots for receiving one tear strip each, these two slots being both open at the insertion side.
Apparatus for developing dental x-ray films, which is wrapped in a light-proof envelope having two cover leaves, in which tear strips are formed on the cover leaves at the edge common to the package, and the cover leaves are joined together for easy separation at their two edges running parallel to the edges bearing the tear strips, said apparatus comprising a developing tank with a developing frame underneath an entry slot in which the dental x-ray film is to be inserted, and two drivable rolls (24, 25) disposed at both ends of the entry slot parallel to one another on both sides of the entry slot, which are designed for attachment to the tear strips of the package.
