Title: Film-sheet cassette

Abstract: A film-sheet cassette has a spring which presses a stack of sheets against a wall of the cassette which is formed with an exposure window. An operator or slider is engageable with the uppermost sheet to displace it out of the end of the cassette through an unloading slot. The spring that urges the sheets against the window wall of the cassette is unloaded during the discharge operation so as to ease sliding-out of the uppermost film sheet. Abutments inside the cassette aligned with the unloading slot define a pair of edge slits having a width slightly greater than the thickness of one film sheet so as to prevent the accidental discharge of more than one sheet at a time.
