    摘要: A fixing unit and an image forming apparatus are provided. The fixing unit applies heat and pressure to a print medium on which a toner image is formed and fixes the toner image on the print medium. The fixing unit includes a heating roller including a heating source, at least two pressurizing rollers which are pressed against the heating roller along an outer circumferential surface of the heating roller, adhesion elastic bodies which elastically press the pressurizing rollers toward the heating roller at first locations of both ends of the pressurizing rollers, and correction elastic bodies which elastically press the pressurizing rollers at second locations of both ends of the pressurizing rollers in the opposite direction of the adhesion elastic bodies. With this structure, the fixing unit forms sufficient fixing nips to reliably fix toner images on the print medium while maintaining a compact structure. Furthermore, this structure increases the life span of the apparatus by minimizing deformation of the pressurizing roller.

    摘要: A film mode detecting apparatus and method for detecting a film mode by using a periodicity of motion vectors having high autocorrelativity. A motion vector calculating unit adds a size of motion vectors with respect to each field, thereby outputting a first computing value. A peak value eliminating unit detects a peak value from the first computing value, and if the peak value is detected, eliminates the peak value from the first computing value and outputs a resultant value. A mode detecting unit compares an autocorrelation coefficient with a predetermined threshold, thereby outputting a film mode detection signal. The autocorrelation coefficient is obtained from an input signal inputted from the peak value eliminating unit and a delayed signal delayed from the input signal. A mode determining unit determines a film mode when the film mode detection signal is input as often as, or more often than, a first reference value. A scene change detecting unit is further provided for detecting a scene change when the peak value is detected by the maximum value detecting unit, by comparing the detected peak value with a previously detected peak value, and outputting a scene change detection signal to the mode determining unit. In this case, the mode determining unit determines whether it is a film mode or not in accordance with the detection result from the scene change detecting unit based on a second reference value which is greater than the first reference value.
