A fixing device fixes a toner image carried on a recording medium. The fixing device includes a rotatable fixing roll member, a fixing belt member and a walk adjustment mechanism. The fixing belt member is wound on the fixing roll member so as to be rotatable. The walk adjustment mechanism changes a walk width of the fixing belt member in accordance with a width of the recording medium.

A fixing device which fixes a toner image borne on a recording medium includes a rotatable fixing roll member, a rotatable tension roll member, a rotating fixing belt member stretched between the fixing roll member and the tension roll member, a heater which heats the fixing belt member, a pressing member which presses a portion of the fixing roll member around which the fixing belt member is wound to form a nip part, and a belt moving direction changing member which is interposed between the fixing belt member and the fixing roll member on a downstream side of the nip part, and changes a moving direction of the fixing belt member. Width “Wbe” of the fixing belt member, width “Wpr” of the pressing member, and width “Wpe” of the belt moving direction changing member are set to satisfy the following relation: Wpr≦Wbe
摘要:
A fixing unit for fixing a toner image on a recording material includes: a rotatable fixing roll; a fixing belt stretched on the fixing roll; at least one tension roll stretching the fixing belt with the fixing roll; a pressurization member disposed to give a pressure to the fixing roll; and a stripping member disposed to press the outer surface of the fixing belt onto the pressurization member in a vicinity of a downstream side of a first contact portion between the fixing roll and the pressurization member.
摘要:
A noise masking system in an image forming apparatus such as a laser beam printer or a copying machine having a drive mechanism acting as a noise generation source during operation, the noise masking system comprising a masking sound generator for generating a sound to mask the noise and masking sound control means which controls the masking sound generator to generate a masking sound of a frequency range including a main-component frequency of the noise. The masking sound thus generated is of a frequency range from a lower-limit frequency to an upper-limit frequency in a critical band of the main-component frequency of the noise. The noise masking system masks noise to eliminate a psychological unpleasant feeling caused by frequency fluctuation. It is small-sized and inexpensive.
