| Abstract:
The object of the invention is to provide means for doing this work in a very simple manner so that it does not require an experienced operator. A further object of the invention is to make such means readily portable so that it can be easily transported from place to place, very quickly put into operation and occupying a minimum of space both in use and when packed away in its dual- purpose case. It has long been desired to have suitable means for making copies of rare books, etc., but heretofore the apparatus has either been very bulky and intricate to operate or resort has been had to some substitute means, which, not ?0 being primarily designed for the work at hand, rendered operation rather difficult, and unless very carefully handled the results were not equal to results obtained by the more intricate apparatus heretofore used. The apparatus herein disclosed has all the capacity of the features of the more intricate apparatus heretofore used and is very simple to operate and can be packed into a very small container. A further purpose of the apparatus is to provide means permitting changing from one type of sensitized material to another, such, for example, as standard moving picture film or a sensitized paper strip known as "positive paper". This I have rendered possible through the employment of interchangeable magazines. It is a further purpose of this invention to allow the camera to be used for ordinary photographic purposes.
Claim:
A copying camera equipment unit, adapted for ready assembling and disassembling and adapted to be readily carried in packed, disassembled condition, comprising a camera for general use but having a removable wall opposite the lens; a film magazine adapted to be removably applied to the back portion of said camera and having within the same means for feeding the film and adapted to be manually operated intermittently: lighting means: a standard whereon said camera with said applied magazine and said lighting means are adapted to be removably mounted; and a readily portable case adapted to be used as a platen or work table for the positioning there above of the objects to be photographed and to have said standard removably mounted thereon; said case being adapted to receive therein for transportation said equipment unit parts. |
