Instant film pack and image recording device

1. An instant film pack comprising:

an instant film;

a case that accommodates the instant film, and includes an exposure opening portion for exposing an exposure region of the instant film, a discharge port for discharging the instant film, and a claw opening portion for inserting a claw; and

a film cover that is mounted in the case, is dark enough to shield the instant film from being exposed by the light from the exposure opening portion, and includes a notched portion continuous to the claw opening portion,

wherein the notched portion is configured such that only the instant film is discharged in a case where the claw moves within a range of the notched portion, and the film cover remains in the case.

2. The instant film pack according to claim 1 ,

wherein the notched portion has a width narrower than that of the claw opening portion.

3. The instant film pack according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a light shielding member that shields light from the claw opening portion and the notched portion.

4. The instant film pack according to claim 2 , further comprising:

a light shielding member that shields light from the claw opening portion and the notched portion.

5. The instant film pack according to claim 3 ,

wherein the light shielding member is configured to be capable of being cut, and is cut by the claw as the claw is inserted into the claw opening portion and the notched portion.

6. The instant film pack according to claim 4 ,

wherein the light shielding member is configured to be capable of being cut, and is cut by the claw as the claw is inserted into the claw opening portion and the notched portion.

7. The instant film pack according to claim 3 ,

wherein the light shielding member is configured to be deformable, and is deformed by being pressed by the claw as the claw is inserted into the claw opening portion and the notched portion.

8. The instant film pack according to claim 4 ,

wherein the light shielding member is configured to be deformable, and is deformed by being pressed by the claw as the claw is inserted into the claw opening portion and the notched portion.

9. The instant film pack according to claim 3 ,

wherein the light shielding member is configured to be movable, and is moved by being pressed by the claw as the claw is inserted into the claw opening portion and the notched portion.

10. The instant film pack according to claim 4 ,

wherein the light shielding member is configured to be movable, and is moved by being pressed by the claw as the claw is inserted into the claw opening portion and the notched portion.

11. The instant film pack according to claim 1 ,

wherein the film cover is disposed in the case, and is discharged through the discharge port.

12. The instant film pack according to claim 2 ,

wherein the film cover is disposed in the case, and is discharged through the discharge port.

13. The instant film pack according to claim 3 ,

wherein the film cover is disposed in the case, and is discharged through the discharge port.

14. The instant film pack according to claim 7 ,

wherein the film cover is disposed in the case, and is discharged through the discharge port.

15. The instant film pack according to claim 9 ,

wherein the film cover is disposed in the case, and is discharged through the discharge port.

16. The instant film pack according to claim 11 ,

wherein the film cover is disposed to overlap the instant film.

17. An image recording device comprising:

a loading chamber in which the instant film pack according to claim 1 is loaded;

a discharge section that discharges only the instant film from the instant film pack loaded in the loading chamber using the claw, the discharge section discharging the instant film by inserting the claw into the case through the claw opening portion and moving the claw within a range of the notched portion;

a transport section that transports the instant film discharged by the discharge section;

an image data acquisition section that acquires image data; and

an exposure head that records an image represented by the image data on the instant film transported by the transport section.

18. The image recording device according to claim 17 , further comprising:

a digital camera section that captures an image using an image sensor,

wherein the image data acquisition section acquires image data generated by the digital camera section.

19. An image recording device comprising:

a loading chamber in which the instant film pack according to claim 1 is loaded;

a discharge section that discharges the instant film and the film cover from the instant film pack loaded in the loading chamber using the claw, and in a case where the film cover is discharged, the discharge section discharges the film cover by inserting the claw into the case through the claw opening portion and moving the claw within a range that exceeds a range of the notched portion;

a lens that forms a subject image on the instant film of the instant film pack loaded in the loading chamber; and

a transport section that transports the instant film and the film cover discharged by the discharge section.

20. An image recording device comprising:

a loading chamber in which the instant film pack according to claim 2 is loaded;

a discharge section that discharges the instant film and the film cover from the instant film pack loaded in the loading chamber using the claw having a thickness greater than the width of the notched portion;

a lens that forms a subject image on the instant film of the instant film pack loaded in the loading chamber; and

a transport section that transports the instant film and the film cover discharged by the discharge section.
