Abstract
A light-sensitive material feeding rack for feeding a light-sensitive material along a feeding path within a processing tank by holding the material between paired feed rollers. The rack has guide plates extending along the feeding path for guiding the material to the light-sensitive material entrance side of the paired feed rollers. These guide plates are each rotatable about the ends thereof that are closer to the light-sensitive material entrance side. When the rack is to be cleaned, the guide plates are rotated so as to open the interior of the rack, thereby facilitating the cleaning of the rack. After the completion of cleaning, the guide plates are rotated in the opposite direction to be returned to their original condition. Even after the returning of the guide plates, the positional relationship between the feed rollers and the end portions of the guide plates that are closer to the entrance side can be very precisely maintained.
