Abstract: A work machine includes a vehicle body, a steering control wheel, a first actuator, a second actuator, a steering angle sensor, a leaning angle sensor, and a controller. The steering control wheel is supported by the vehicle body. The first actuator changes a steering angle of the steering control wheel. The second actuator changes a leaning angle of the steering control wheel. The steering angle sensor outputs a first angle signal indicative of the steering angle. The leaning angle sensor outputs a second angle signal indicative of the leaning angle. The controller acquires the first angle signal and the second angle signal, acquires the steering angle based on the first angle signal, acquires the leaning angle based on the second angle signal, acquires a target leaning angle corresponding to the steering angle, and controls the second actuator so that the leaning angle becomes the target leaning angle.

Abstract: In draining liquid in an AV-coupling-type blood circuit, it is determined that the blood circuit is in an AV-coupled state. A blood purification apparatus can switch between an open state in which fluid can flow through a blood removal side circuit and a blood return side circuit and a closed state in which the fluid cannot flow therethrough. The apparatus generates a difference in pressure between the blood removal side circuit and the blood return side circuit by rotating a blood pump in the case of the closed state. The apparatus then determines whether the blood circuit is the closed circuit by switching to the open state and monitoring the difference in pressure from detecting pressure inside the blood circuit. The apparatus drains liquid remaining in the blood circuit to a predetermined drainage destination with the blood circuit forming the closed circuit.
