In a power steering apparatus comprising a pump, a reservior, a power cylinder having two opposite chambers, and a rotary control vale, the rotary control valve consists of a first control portion which communicates between the pump and the reservior, and a second control portion which communicates not only between the pump and the reservior but also with the power cylinder. In the first control portion, each of four underlapping variable orifices is so provided as to take the form of underlap in itself. In the second control portion, two underlapping variable orifices are provided on the side of the pump, and besides each of two overlapping variable orifices is so provided as to take the form of overlap in itself on the side of the reservior. In this manner, while a steering wheel is operated within a predetermined angle, an opening area of the overlapping variable orifice changes little. When the steering wheel is operated beyond the predetermined valve, the opening are increases sufficiently according to steering operation. As a result, a differential pressure between the chambers is prevented from originating at and around the neutral position of the steering wheel. Consequently, as for steering feeling, the rigidity of the steering operation at and around the neutral position is enhanced, and furthermore, a beginning point where the power assist is produced by operating the steering wheel from its neutral position is distinguished.

According to one embodiment, a sheet finishing apparatus includes a finishing section configured to apply finishing to a sheet placed on a processing tray, a sheet discharging section configured to discharge the sheet subjected to the finishing to a stack tray via a discharge port, a roller attached to a shaft provided in parallel to the discharge port and which rotate in a first direction for guiding the sheet in the direction of the finishing section and a second direction for discharging the sheet, and an arm attached to the shaft to extend in the centrifuging direction from the shaft, rotate with the torque of the shaft, and idly rotate when force for regulating the torque acts. The arm flaps down the trailing end of the sheet on the stack tray onto the stack tray.

An image forming apparatus includes a developing device assembly, an inertia acceptor and a setting mechanism. The developing device assembly has a plurality of developing devices to develop a latent image formed on a photosensitive member. The assembly can rotate to switch from one of the developing devices to another. The energy of rotational inertia is shifted from the developing device assembly to the inertia acceptor when the inertia acceptor stops the rotation of the developing device assembly. The setting mechanism controls the movement of the inertia acceptor driven by the energy of rotational inertia shifted from the developing device assembly.

In an image forming apparatus of the present invention, although an upper cover is rotated when a body frame is opened, a free end of a base for fixing a paper receiving tray makes contact with a side of the frame, thus an inclination angle of the paper receiving tray in link motion with rotation of the upper cover is controlled, and the paper receiving tray is inclined at time of rotation of the cover member, and sheets of paper are prevented from falling.

An image forming apparatus of the invention includes a guide member for guiding an photosensitive member to an arranged position, a toothed pulley attached to a shaft of the photosensitive member, a timing belt having teeth on an outer peripheral surface thereof, a mechanism for rotating the timing belt, a mechanism for applying tension to the timing belt, and a mechanism for holding the tension applying mechanism at a timing belt winding position. The tension applying mechanism supports the timing belt at a position where the toothed pulley engages with the timing belt, when the photosensitive member is moved to the arranged position. The tension applying mechanism moves the timing belt to a position where the timing belt is wound around the outer peripheral surface of the toothed pulley, when the photosensitive member has moved to the arranged position.

A recording apparatus has a main body case housing a printing head. A recording-paper insertion slot is formed in the upper surface of the case and a recording paper discharge slot is formed in the side surface of the case. A pair of stop levers are mounted on the upper surface so as to be pivotable between standing and horizontal positions. A part of the upper surface is used as a continuous-recording-paper receiving portion on which the recording paper is placed and is led to the insertion slot. The standing stop levers contact the insertion-slot-side end of the recording paper to hold it in its predetermined posture or position and restricts the movement of the recording paper toward the insertion opening.

An affinity ligand is reactive to the GARP protein may be capable of binding to an extracellular domain of GARP protein expressed on regulatory T (Treg) cells. The affinity ligand may be an antibody and may be used to identify Treg cells. A method comprises providing a blood sample from a subject and determining the amount of Treg cells in that sample. A composition containing Treg cells may be administered to an individual to suppress effector T cell activity in the individual. A composition containing an affinity ligand capable of binding to a GARP domain may be administered to an individual to suppress Treg cell activity and increase effector T cell activity in the individual. A kit for detecting Treg cells may include an affinity ligand reactive with mammalian GARP protein.
