Abstract
In a device for unloading X-ray film cassette a nozzle is provided, positioned at a front side of the cassette to be unloaded, for blowing air into a gap between a slightly open lid and the remaining part of the cassette. The nozzle is switched on for short intervals to ensure blow air stream which generate vacuum under the film stuck to the lid to pull the film back towards the bottom of the cassette so that a reliable separation of the film by a sucker is ensured.
