摘要： A fixing device includes a rotatable fixing member, a pressing member in contact with the fixing member, and a pressure application-release device. The pressure application-release device has a pressing cam to pressurize a first pressing arm, a second pressing arm to pressurize the pressing member, a compression spring to connect the first pressing arm with the second pressing arm, and a motor to turn the pressing cam. The pressure application-release device switches a state of the pressing member between a pressure application state to contact the pressing member against the fixing member and a pressure release state to separate the pressing member from the fixing member.

摘要： A fixing apparatus includes a first heat generating member that generates heat upon receiving power from a commercial power source, an electrical condenser that stores charge when charged by the commercial power source, and a second heat generating member that generates heat upon receiving power from the electrical condenser. A fixing member is heated by the first and second heat generating members and fixes an image onto a recording medium. A control device is provided to restrict the power supplied from commercial power source to the first heat generating member when the temperature of the fixing member starts increasing. The electrical condenser starts supplying power to the second heat generating member before the control device terminates restriction of the power.

摘要： A fixing unit thermally fixes a toner on a recording medium by a fixing member having a plurality of internal heaters and an outer peripheral surface, and a temperature sensor detects a surface temperature of the fixing member at a temperature detecting position. At least one first heater, of the heaters, receives power from a first power supply, and remaining second heaters receive power from a second power supply. One of the second heaters closest to the temperature detecting position is the same distance from the temperature detecting position as or is closer to the temperature detecting position than a first heater which is closest to the temperature detecting position.
