Heating device
First Claim
1. A heating device in which a photosensitive material, onto which images have been exposed, and an image receiving material, to which the images of said photosensitive material are transferred, are superposed and heated so as to effect heat development transfer, comprising:
- a heating plate which is formed in the shape of a flat plate having a surface and which is provided so as to be movable in predetermined directions, said heating plate heating said photosensitive material and said image receiving material while moving in said predetermined directions in a state in which said photosensitive material and said image receiving material are loaded on said surface of said heating plate; and
attaching members which are disposed so as to oppose said heating plate, said attaching members for applying predetermined pressures to said photosensitive material and said image receiving material while said photosensitive material and said image receiving material are nipped between said attaching members and said heating plate such that said photosensitive material and said image receiving material are adhered to said heating plate as said heating plate undergoes a first forward movement.

Abstract
A heating device, in which a photosensitive material and an image receiving material can be heated quickly and which has a reduced number of parts. A plate-shaped heating plate, which can move reciprocally within the device, is provided at a heat development transfer section. Attaching/peeling rollers, which can move closer to and away from the heating plate, are disposed above the heating plate. Further, a photosensitive material peeling pawl and an image receiving material peeling pawl are provided on the sides of the attaching/peeling rollers. During two reciprocal movements of the heating plate, the photosensitive material and the image receiving material are loaded on the heating plate, heat-development-transferred, and peeled. Because the respective materials are pressed by the attaching/peeling rollers and adhered to the heating plate, good heat development transfer can be effected in a short time. Moreover, since the pressures of the attaching/peeling rollers are decreased at the time of peeling of the materials, the materials can be peeled easily by the respective peeling pawls.

12. A heating device in which a photosensitive material, onto which images have been exposed, and an image receiving material, to which the images of said photosensitive material are transferred, are superposed and heated so as to effect heat development transfer, comprising:
-
a heating plate which is formed in the shape of a flat plate having a surface and which is provided so as to be reciprocally movable in predetermined directions, said heating plate heating said photosensitive material and said image receiving material while moving in said predetermined directions in a state in which said photosensitive material and said image receiving material are loaded on said surface of said heating plate; attaching members which are disposed so as to oppose said heating plate, said attaching members for applying predetermined pressures to said photosensitive material and said image receiving material while said photosensitive material and said image receiving material are nipped between said attaching members and said heating plate such that said photosensitive material and said image receiving material are adhered to said heating plate as said heating plate undergoes a first forward movement; and peeling pawls, which are provided in the vicinities of said attaching members, for peeling said photosensitive material and said image receiving material from said heating plate in conjunction with said reciprocal movement of said heating plate, wherein when said heating plate moves forward again, said peeling pawls are operated so as to peel said photosensitive material and said image receiving material. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
