Abstract
A device for controlling the width of a slot of a diaphragm of a microfilm-reading-and-copying apparatus in which an enlarged microimage is projected by two inclined mirrors mounted on a movable carriage and via the slot of the diaphragm on a copying cylinder. The diaphragm is formed by two flaps of which one is stationary and another one is movable between a closed position to close the slot and a plurality of open positions to adjust the width of the slot. The drive of the movable flap is provided with a rotatable cam which is coupled to the movable carriage.
