Abstract:

The film container is particularly adapted for roll film and includes a closed bottom open topped receptacle and a removable open bottom, closed top cap defining therebetween one or a pair of central spaces in which a film roll is held. The receptacle and/or cap has tapered sidewalls so that the cap and receptacle slidingly fit together and releasably lock and seal. The container may also include one or more indicators on the outer surface of the sidewall thereof which indicate whether the film roll inside the container is exposed or unexposed. The indicators may be, for example, an arrow on one of the receptacle and cap alignable with the words "exposed" and "unexposed", or symbols thereof, on the other of the receptacle and cap, or a single ridge matingly receivable on the receptacle or cap in either one of a spaced pair of labelled grooves on the other of the receptacle and cap. Colored ridges of the same or different configuration can be subsituted for the two grooves and ridge. Alternatively, a window in the receptacle sidewall can be provided through which the words "exposed" and "unexposed", or symbols thereof, on the cap sidewall can be separately viewed.
