A sheet conveyance apparatus is arranged on an upper face portion of an image forming apparatus and conveys a sheet to a sheet processing apparatus. The sheet conveyance apparatus includes a conveyance path including a first path through which the sheet is conveyed toward the sheet processing apparatus and a second path branched from the first path, a switching guide to switch a conveyance route of the sheet between the first and second paths, an air blowing unit to send air toward the conveyance path, and an air intake port provided on an end portion on a front side of the sheet conveyance apparatus. A duct connects the air intake port and the air blowing unit, and an air blowing port blows the air from the air blowing unit to the conveyance path in a sheet conveyance direction.

Sheet conveyance apparatus and image forming system

The present invention provides an image forming apparatus including: a first moving member pressed and moved by an openable/closable member when the openable/closable member is opened, and switching a cartridge from a state where the cartridge is positioned in an image forming position to a state where the positioning is released; and a second moving member pressed and moved by the openable/closable member when the openable/closable member is opened, and moving the exposure member from an exposure position to a retracted position, wherein when the positioning of the cartridge is released, a reaction force applied from the first moving member to the openable/closable member reaches a first peak, when the exposure member is moved to the retracted position, a reaction force applied from the second moving member to the openable/closable member reaches a second peak, and timing of the first peak is different from timing of the second peak.

Image forming apparatus

It is provided a control device for a hybrid vehicle including a controller configured to control an engine, a first motor, and an automatic transmission and a control method of the hybrid vehicle. The controller is configured to determine whether or not an operation state of the engine is changeable, when an upshift of the hybrid vehicle is performed, decrease torque of an input shaft of the automatic transmission by outputting negative torque acting to decrease the torque of the input shaft of the automatic transmission from the first motor when a prohibition condition that the operation state of the engine is not changeable is established, and decrease engine torque output from the engine to decrease the torque of the input shaft of the automatic transmission to be decreased accompanied by the upshift when the prohibition condition is not established and the operation state of the engine is changeable.

Control device and control method for hybrid vehicle

A fuel supply apparatus is operated so as to increase an upon-stopping fuel pressure in accordance with an increase in an upon-stopping vehicle speed, the upon-stopping fuel pressure being a fuel pressure in a state in which an internal combustion engine is intermittently stopped, the upon-stopping vehicle speed being a vehicle speed upon intermittently stopping the internal combustion engine.

Control apparatus for hybrid vehicle

In a control system for an internal combustion engine which stops the rotation of an internal combustion engine by applying a counter torque thereto, the generation of noise or vibration accompanying the stop of rotation of the internal combustion engine is suppressed as much as possible. In the control system provided with a controller being adapted to stop the rotation of the internal combustion engine by carrying out forced stop processing in which the counter torque is inputted, in cases where the forced stop processing is carried out after the completion of the execution of specific motoring processing, the controller makes the counter torque at a certain timing before the counter torque becomes a predetermined torque after the start of the execution of the forced stop processing smaller than in the case where the forced stop processing is carried out without carrying out the specific motoring processing.

Control system for internal combustion engine

An internal combustion engine is provided with a cylinder injector injecting fuel directly into a combustion chamber; an intake injector injecting fuel into an intake passage; and a control device controlling injection of fuel from these injectors. The control device is configured to perform a first control, in which an air-fuel mixture in the combustion chamber is formed by only fuel injected from the cylinder injector, until a predetermined timing after startup of the internal combustion engine, and to perform a second control, in which an air-fuel mixture in the combustion chamber is formed by fuel containing a larger amount of fuel injected from the intake injector than fuel injected from the cylinder injector, and after the predetermined timing. The air-fuel ratio of the mixture during the second control is smaller than the air-fuel ratio of the air-fuel mixture during the first control and smaller than the stoichiometric air-fuel ratio.

Internal combustion engine

In a configuration in which a cartridge is removably mounted from a longitudinal direction of the cartridge (a side-oriented configuration), an image bearing member is disposed at a position farther from a light emitting unit in a state in which a cover is opened than a state in which the cover is closed in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the cartridge.

A vehicle includes an internal combustion engine including an exhaust passage, a catalyst provided in the exhaust passage, and an electronic control unit. When the engine stop condition is established, the electronic control unit stops fuel injection and increases a catalyst inflow oxygen amount that is an amount of oxygen flowing into the catalyst by a specified oxygen increase amount. The engine stop condition is a condition for stopping operation of the internal combustion engine. The specified oxygen increase amount is larger than an increased part of the catalyst inflow oxygen amount that is increased by the stop of the fuel injection.

Vehicle and control method for vehicle

In a control system for an internal combustion engine, the internal combustion engine includes a first exhaust catalyst that is a three-way catalyst disposed in an exhaust path of the internal combustion engine, a second exhaust catalyst that is a three-way catalyst disposed in the exhaust path on a downstream side of the first exhaust catalyst, and a motor configured to drive the internal combustion engine. The control system includes an electronic control unit configured to, when operation of the internal combustion engine is stopped, stop fuel injection in the internal combustion engine and then, execute motoring in which the internal combustion engine is rotationally driven using drive power of the motor, and execute the motoring in a range in which an oxygen occlusion amount of the first exhaust catalyst becomes an oxygen occlusion amount smaller than an upper limit oxygen occlusion amount of the first exhaust catalyst.

An image forming apparatus includes an LED unit capable of being in an exposing position or a retracted position, and a cartridge capable of being inserted into or pulled out with the LED unit in the retracted position.
