    摘要: A fixing device includes a fixing member, a pressing member, a temperature detector, and a heater. The pressing member contacts an outer circumferential surface of the fixing member to form a fixing nip between the fixing member and the pressing member through which a recording medium bearing a toner image passes. The heater heats the fixing member to a predetermined temperature based on a detection result provided by the temperature detector. A circumferential distance A between the temperature detector and the heater along a circumference of the fixing member is defined by the following formula: A≧v×(T1+T2) where v is a circumferential velocity of the fixing member rotating in a predetermined direction of rotation, T1 is a response time of the temperature detector, and T2 is a response time of the heater.

    摘要: In a fixing device, a first reflection plate covers a part of an outer circumferential surface of an infrared heater in a circumferential direction of the infrared heater along an axial direction of the infrared heater substantially perpendicular to the circumferential direction of the infrared heater. The first reflection plate reflects light emitted by the infrared heater toward a fixing member. At least one light control mirror is provided in at least one end of the first reflection plate in an axial direction of the first reflection plate. At least one second reflection plate opposes the infrared heater via the at least one light control mirror to reflect the light emitted by the infrared heater and passing through the at least one light control mirror toward a center portion of the fixing member in an axial direction of the fixing member.

    摘要: A fixing device is provided, which has a fixing roller and a sheet. A recording paper where a toner image has been transcribed thereon is passed through a nip portion between the fixing roller and the sheet. By pressing and heating, the toner image is fixed on the recording paper. A heating line is wound on a surface opposite to a sheet's surface that is in contact with the fixing roller. By applying a power source to the heating line, the sheet is heated. When the recording paper enters the nip, the cause of the temperature suddenly lowering can be prevented.

    摘要: A drawer unit including a housing and a drawer inserted into the housing in inserting direction and drawn therefrom in drawing direction is provided. A locking member is mounted on the housing or the drawer to extend in direction intersecting the inserting direction, and is rotatable on a rotating shaft extending in the inserting direction such that when the drawer is inserted, the locking member rotates from unlock position to lock position in locking direction while rotating from the lock position to the unlock position in unlocking direction prior to drawing of the drawer. A locking wall and a pushing wall are mounted on the other of the housing and the drawer. The locking member in the lock position is engaged with the locking wall. When being rotated in the unlocking direction, the locking member is contacted with the pushing wall, which pushes the drawer in the drawing direction.

The external terminal is inserted (or extracted) through an external terminal insertion opening formed on an orthogonal surface of a mainframe orthogonal to a surface of the second board. A mounting board is provided and to which the first and second boards are attached. The second board is attached to the mounting board with the external terminal protruding from the external terminal insertion opening. The first and second boards are slidably attached in a prescribed direction to separate from the orthogonal surface of the mainframe.
