A fixing device includes a heater that transports a recording medium while rotating in a first direction and fixes an image formed on the recording medium to the recording medium by heating the image, a reducing member that rotates in a second direction different from the first direction, the reducing member and the heater contacting each other and rotating at different speeds, and the reducing member scratching an outer peripheral surface of the heater, and a moving device that moves the heater with respect to the reducing member in a direction of a rotational axis of the reducing member.

An image forming apparatus includes a recording material transporting path that extends in a direction from below upward and that transports a recording material, a fixing device provided on the way of the recording material transporting path, the fixing device having a rotatable heating member that has a heating source provided inside thereof and a rotatable pressure member that forms a fixing nip in pressure contact with the heating member, and a detaching member that contacts the heating member in the vicinity at a downstream side of the of the fixing nip in the rotation direction of the heating member and detaches the recording material from the heating member. The detachment member has a detachment guide surface extending from a contact point with the heating member, and a tilt of the detachment guide surface toward the pressure member side in relation with a vertical line including the contact point is not more than 2.5°.

A fixing device includes an endless belt, a fixing rotating body that fixes, in cooperation with the belt, a toner image formed on a recording medium nipped between the fixing rotating body and the belt while rotating in contact with the belt, a support member that supports a load with which the fixing rotating body nips the recording medium with the belt so as to form a nip portion to nip the recording medium between the belt and the fixing rotating body, a driving unit that circulates the belt in a state in which the fixing rotating body is separate from the belt, and a wind-on rotating body on which the belt is wound at a position adjacent to the support member on an upstream side in a direction of transport of the recording medium to the nip portion.

An image forming apparatus includes a recording material transporting path that extends in a direction from bottom to top of a body of the image forming apparatus and transports a recording material, a fixing device provided on the recording material transporting path, which includes a rotatable heating member that has an internal heat source and a rotatable pressure member that forms a nip area with the heating member by being located in contact with and pressed against the heating member, to nip the recording material for carrying out a fixing process, and an ejection guide member that guides a recording material ejected from the nip area to the outside of the image forming apparatus. The ejection guide member has a guide surface formed to intersect a tangent line of the heating member at the most downstream point of the nip area, and the guide surface intersects the tangent line at an obtuse angle.
