Abstract
Device for processing photographic material comprising a plurality of treating baths ( ) containing developing, bleaching, fixing and stabilizing solutions. During the working operations, the treating baths are successively crossed by the photographic material to be treated. The refilling of the treating baths is obtained by means of pumps ( ) and pipes ( ) which draw the treating solutions from each restoring container ( ) as well as the treating water from a water-reservoir ( ). A driving device ( ) of the refilling pumps cooperates with the level sensors (S -S ) of the restoring containers in order to stop the refilling process and to actuate an auxiliary pump ( ) as soon as one of the restoring containers is empty. The auxiliary pump ( ) removes the residual treating solutions from the restoring containers through an additional pipe ( ) connected with each restoring container ( ). The device according to the invention facilitates the maintenance operations and makes simple and economical the disposal of the restoring containers.
