Abstract
A radiographic film cassette suited for being used in combination with a daylight unloading system is presented. It comprises a cover and a bottom frame which are hingedly connected to each other in such a way that not only a rotation at the hinges occurs, but also a lifting up of the cover near the hinges. In this way the sheet of X-ray material becomes completely free. Further, two deformable pins are provided in the bottom part in order to permit the air to flow under the sheet, avoiding thereby a sticking of the latter to the screens. The cassette is advantageously used with a simple unloading device, placed in front of the entrance slit of a processing machine; the unloading device itself may be supplementarily equipped with means to print identification data on the sheet of X-ray material.
