The exposed frame is now pulled into the Feed Rolls by the notched Pick Strap — a pivoted, spring-loaded
arm attached to the end of the Pick Carrier (see Figure 2-23). The Feed Rolls drive the frame around the
chute.
Figure 2-23. Pick Strap on Pick Carrier Pulls Frame into Feed Rolls
The Pick Strap in the Joshua System, which pushes the film frame into engagement with the Feed Rolls, is
specifically designed to provide a more positive grip on the film frame.
Spring force in a downward direction keeps the Strap in constant contact with the film frame surface, and a
sharp, inclined notch assures positive engagement with the edge of the frame.
