A microfilm reader for enlarged projections of any desired micropicture among a number of such pictures on a microfilm. The microfilm is interleaved between two movable plates. A slidable support for the image forming objective is pressed with a tensioned spring against the upper plate. The slidable support can be connected to a slide lever for effecting its placement in proper position. Two arms of a spring can be employed for mounting the slidable support and for tilting it around an axis essentially parallel to the cover plate.

Microfilm reader

A collapsible microfilm reader having a lower body part with a micro-fiche projector and a cover hinged thereto and having a rectangular projection surface or screen on its inner surface which is operatively positioned when the cover is in its open position. The hinge or hinges which connect the body and cover are readily disconnectable and connectable so that the cover can selectively be mounted on the body with the long or short axis of the screen aligned with the central axis of the projector thereby permitting the optimum projection of micro-fiches of different formats by changing when necessary the orientation of the positioning of the cover on the body rather than requiring different positioning of micro-fiches of different formats with respect to the projector.

Collapsible microfilm reader

Portable microfilm reader having a body with a microfilm holder, a projection lamp, a foldable reflecting mirror, a hinged cover, and a projection surface or screen on the inside of the cover. The invention provides means for automatically erecting the mirror when the cover is opened, and automatically folding the mirror when the cover is closed. Means is also provided for automatically turning the projection lamp off when the cover is closed.
