    摘要: An image heating device with a small thermal capacity that can be heated rapidly. The image heating device includes a fixing belt (20) having a heat resistance; a rotatable heat-generating roller (21), which is at least partially conductive and arranged in contact with an inner peripheral surface of the fixing belt (20); a fixing roller (22), the fixing roller and the heat-generating roller (21) movably suspending the fixing belt (20) therebetween; and a magnetization means (24) for heating the heat-generating roller (21) through magnetization, which is arranged outside the heat-generating roller (21). In this image heating device, the magnetization means (24) heats the heat-generating roller (21) through magnetization after a rotating operation of the heat-generating roller (21) is started.

    摘要: An image heating device having a predetermined amount of heat generation with a small electric current. The device has a heat-generating roller having magnetism and conductivity, and an exciting coil opposed to the peripheral face of the heat-generating roller and adapted for allowing the heat-generating roller to generate heat with electromagnetic induction. The exciting coil is composed of a bundle of copper wires extended in the direction of the rotation axis of the heat generating roller. The wires are circumferentially wound along the circumferential direction of the heat-generating roller. The bundled wires are arranged in close contact with each other in the circumferential direction of the heat-generating roller so as to cover the upper half of the heat-generating roller.

    摘要: An excitation coil is arranged so as to be opposed to a rotatable heat generating roller of a conductive material, and on a rear side of the excitation coil, a core of a magnetic material is provided. The core is composed of a central core that is formed continuously in a rotation axis direction of the heat generating roller, and a plurality of U-shaped cores arranged at a distance from each other in that direction. A high-frequency current is applied to the excitation coil so that the heat generating roller 1 generates heat by electromagnetic induction. An additional coil is wound around the U-shaped core. Both ends of the additional coil are connected to a switching unit. When the switching unit is brought to a connected state, under an induction current generated in the additional coil, a magnetic flux in a direction in which a magnetic flux of the excitation coil is cancelled out is generated, so that heat generation of the heat generating roller can be suppressed. The switching unit is switched over according to a width of a paper sheet to be passed and a temperature distribution in the rotation axis direction. Thus, a uniform temperature distribution of the heat generating roller in the rotation axis direction can be maintained.

    摘要: In a fixing apparatus and an image forming apparatus of the present invention, an external heating section is provided that includes: an external heating belt; two heat rollers suspending the external heating belt and pressed against a fixing roller via the external heating belt; and a release/contact mechanism for causing the two heat rollers to separate from or contact with the fixing roller. With the heat rollers separated from the fixing roller by the release/contact mechanism, the external heating belt and the fixing roller are in contact with each other and the external heating belt follows rotation of the fixing roller. As a result, a fixing apparatus is provided that includes an external release/contact mechanism that can quickly operate in a small space and at low power without encouraging deterioration of the belt member. An image forming apparatus provided with such a fixing apparatus is also provided.

    摘要: A chip antenna capable of reducing the spiral pitch of an antenna line to be smaller than that of a conventional one. Conductor patterns are electrically connected sequentially in series through via holes so as to form a spiral antenna line. The antenna line has a winding axis which is arranged either in a zigzag manner or along a straight line. Adjacent wound portions have an equal diameter or width or the adjacent portions may have unequal widths. Since adjacent via holes are arranged in a staggered arrangement with each other, the distance between the adjacent via holes is larger than the spiral pitch of the antenna line, allowing the adjacent portions to be closer together than a conventional chip antenna, thereby allowing the resonance frequency to be reduced.

    摘要: A helical antenna is provided in which a predetermined resonance frequency can be determined at the design stage. The helical antenna includes a conductor which is formed from copper or a copper alloy inside a base in the shape of a rectangular parallelopiped formed from a dielectric material having barium oxide, aluminum oxide and silica as main constituents and which is wound in a helical shape along the length of the base. In such a case, the resonance frequency f0 of the helical antenna and the inductance components L of the conductor satisfy the relationship: ln (L)=A0+A1.times.ln (f0), where ln is a natural logarithm, and A0 and A1 are constants. One end of the conductor is extended onto the surface of the base and forms a power feeding terminal connected to a power feeding terminal formed on the surface of the base for applying a voltage to the conductor, and the other end thereof forms a free end inside the base.
