To provide an automatic development machine for silver halide photographing sensitive material with a rapid development adaptability by which a large spray amount can be stably obtained, without a poor spraying, the bend in the direction of spraying and the occurrence of an uneven development due to clogging or the like, and being superior in maintenability and having no mist, and also being small in environmental load.
Processing liquid is painted on the silver halide photographing photosensitive material, and a development process is carried out in the automatic development machine for silver halide photographing photosensitive material. The machine includes a switching valve 182 disposed in a supply path supplying the processing liquid, a branch flow path 183a disposed on the downstream from the switching valve 182, and a nozzle 183b disposed at each branch flow path 183a. The processing liquid is sprayed from the nozzle 183b by switching the switching valve 182, and is painted on the silver halide photographing photosensitive material.
