The sheet feeding apparatus includes a sheet stack tray on which sheets to be fed are stacked, a drive motor for moving up the sheet stack tray, a detection sensor for detecting the position of an uppermost sheet stacked on the sheet stack tray, and a control part for controlling the function of the drive motor, wherein, when the detection sensor detects that the uppermost sheet reaches a predetermined height while the drive motor executes a drive so as to move up the sheet stack tray, the control part tentatively stops or decelerates the drive motor and thereafter drives the drive motor so as to move up the sheet stacked on the sheet stack tray to a feed position.

An image forming apparatus in which a sheet containing device containing a sheet is detachably attached to a containing portion provided in an apparatus main body includes an engagement portion provided on the sheet containing device, a drawing device provided in the containing portion to be rotatable using one end thereof as a pivot, and a guide device which, when the drawing device rotates to draw the sheet containing device, guides a movement of the engagement portion in a drawing direction. The guide device is composed of a linear portion parallel to a direction in which the sheet containing device is inserted, and a curved portion provided on a downstream side of the linear portion with respect to a direction in which the sheet containing device is attached, the curved portion being curved not to extend away from the pivot of the drawing device.

Discharge passages for concentrated and separated liquids are separately formed in shafts of a rotary bowl 1 and a screw conveyor 2. In an inlet passage of the radial discharge passage leading from the inside of the rotary bowl 1 to the discharge passage in the shaft, an annular space is divided into sectors by a plurality of deceleration vanes 23, 24 which are mounted on the screw conveyor 2 and extend in a radial direction from the axis of the machine.

An image forming apparatus includes a main assembly, a first openable member openably and closably provided in the main assembly, a second openable member openably and closably provided in the main assembly, and a fixing unit for fixing a toner image formed on a recording material in the main assembly, with the fixing unit including a pressure applying mechanism for applying a pressure to a fixing nip of the fixing unit. In addition, a first arm transmits a first operation force, generated when the first openable member is opened by the operator, to the pressure applying mechanism to release the pressure applied to the fixing nip, and a second arm transmits a second operation force, generated when the second openable member is opened by the operator, to the pressure applying mechanism to release the pressure applied to the fixing nip. The fixing unit is detachably mountable relative to the main assembly and includes a pressure switching member, engaged to the pressure applying mechanism, to receive the first operation force via the first arm when the first openable member is opened and to move the pressure applying mechanism, and the second operation force generated when the second openable member is opened is transmitted to the pressure switching member.
