Abstract:
The invention relates to a device for transilluminating a film, having a light outlet from which a light beam with which the film can be transilluminated exits, a transillumination region through which the film can be guided such that the light beam can transilluminate the film in the transillumination region, a film infeed by which the film can be fed to the transillumination region and a film outfeed by which the film is removed from the transillumination region, a hollow chamber, the inner surface of which is designed in a diffusely reflecting manner and comprises a light inlet opening and an outlet opening, and a light source, from which light exits and enters the hollow chamber through the light inlet opening, and a beam guide having a beam inlet end and a beam outlet end, wherein the beam inlet end is arranged such that light exiting from the outlet opening of the hollow chamber at least partially enters through the beam inlet end into the beam guide.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To surely feed out slide mounts one by one in a simple configuration. SOLUTION: A feed-out pawl 30 is provided with a projecting part 30c. When the feed-out pawl 30 feeds out a lowest slide mount 17, the projecting part 30c pushes up a slide mount 17 positioned on the lowest slide mount 17. Since the inner edge of a frame body constituting the slide mount 17 under feeding-out and the inner edge of a frame body constituting the slide mount 17 positioned on the slide mount 17 under feeding-out are not engaged, multiple feeding is prevented.

Abstract:
A method is disclosed for scanning a transparency (28) with a template (26, 126, 226, 326, 426), comprising: placing a template (26, 126, 226, 326, 426) on a scan bed (32); locating a transparency (28) in a window (84) of the template (26, 126, 226, 326, 426); passing a first light through a first aperture (86, 94) in the template (26, 126, 226, 326, 426) during a first scan of the transparency (28); passing a second light through the first aperture (86, 94) in the template (26, 126, 226, 326, 426) during a second scan of the transparency (28); and aligning a first electronic image (102, 104, 106) from the first scan and a second electronic image (102, 104, 106) from the second scan based on sensed light through the aperture (86, 94). A template is also disclosed.
Abstract:
The image scanning system of the present invention scans slides and film strips containing photographic images and creates a corresponding plurality of digital representations of the photographic images. The system includes a touch screen monitor, a computer (54), a scanner (62), a high speed interface and a printer. The scanner includes a light source for projecting light through the film strip. A light sensor senses the light projected through the film strip and generates pixel data. A film drive advances the film strip between the light source and the light sensor. A lens located between the light source and the light sensor directs the light projected through the film strip onto the light sensor. The pixel data is transmitted through the high speed interface to the computer for processing operations. After the pixel data has been processed, digital images are displayed on the monitor and may also be printed out.
