Abstract:
A light-sensitive material exposure apparatus comprising:an exposure device for exposing a light-sensitive material line by line on an optical axis; a positioning member provided at a position facing said exposure device and having a projecting part situated on said optical axis on a side facing said exposure device; a first transfer path provided on an upstream side of said positioning member to transfer the light-sensitive material toward said positioning member; and a second transfer path provided on a downstream side of said positioning member to transfer the light-sensitive material having passed over said positioning member further downstream; wherein the projecting part of said positioning member is located on a side closer to said exposure device than an intersection between a line extended from said first transfer path and said optical axis and an intersection between a line extending from said second transfer path and said optical axis, and said positioning member has on its upstream side an inclined portion for guiding a forward end of the light-sensitive material transferred from said first transfer path onto said projecting part.
