Abstract: A fusing device and an image forming apparatus having the same. The fusing device can include a fusing belt, a heat source disposed in an interior of the fusing belt, a supporting member to support at least a portion of an inner peripheral surface of the fusing belt, a press member mounted while opposing the fusing belt to form a fusing nip, and a nip forming part formed with an opening portion to enable heat emitted from the heat source to be transferred to the fusing belt at a position corresponding to the fusing nip. The nip forming part can have at least one gap maintaining part to prevent change of a gap of the opening portion. The nip forming part is provided at the supporting member or a nip forming member mounted between the heat source and the supporting member. Accordingly, a temperature of the fusing belt can rise quickly by directly heating the fusing belt, and deterioration of fusing performance due to deformation of the nip forming member can be prevented.

Abstract: A heating roller assembly for an image forming apparatus. The heating roller assembly includes a heating roller pipe having a heating layer around which a coil is wound. The heating layer has a coil winding structure such that first portions ‘A’ formed adjacent to bearings for rotatably supporting the heat roller pipe have a lower thermal temperature than that of second portions ‘B’ formed adjacent to the first portions A. The first portions A serve as a heat absorber to minimize the fusing heat loss at the beginning of a fusing process, and even if the fusing process continues for a long time, the heat absorber can prevent the opposite ends of the heating roller, where the bearings are disposed, from overheating. Accordingly, a more accurate pickup operation is achieved and a stable quality of image can be guaranteed.
