Abstract
A water replenishing device is disclosed which makes it possible to supply the necessary volume of water in response to a decrease in the processing solution in the processing tank due to evaporation. A water supply guide member is attached to an upper part of a processing solution tank. A discharge opening is formed at one end of the water supply guide member. Water supplied from a water replenishing pipe is fed to the water supply guide member and then it is supplied into the processing solution tank. When the processing solution level in the processing solution tank reaches an overflow opening, the excess water supplied to the water supply guide member is discharged outside the processing solution tank through the discharge opening.
