To reduce the number of roller pairs in a tank even when a wide photosentive material is processed, to prevent contamination between adjacent liquid storage tanks from occurring, to improve squeezing performance, to make processing rapid and to make a device compact and inexpensive by providing the device with a pair of boundary rollers, a pair of liquid dropping removing rollers and a roller member.
The upper-side boundary roller 21 is disposed above a film carrying path 85 and the upper-side liquid dropping roller 31 is set thereon. A tank wall 12 between the upstream-side liquid storage tank 11A and the downstream-side liquid storage tank 11B and the lower-side boundary roller 22 are arranged below the path 85. Besides, the lower-side liquid dropping roller 32 is set by being brought into contact with the roller 22 and a roller 41 is disposed there below so as to press the roller 32. Then, liquid stuck to the rollers 21 and 22 flows in a liquid dropping direction 15 so as to prevent the tank 11A from being contaminated by liquid dropping from the tank 11B. By processing the liquid dropping in such a way, the boundary roller can be arranged at the upper part of the tank wall.
