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.

An image fixing device a pressure plate that presses against a fixing roller. The pressure plate is made of bridged PTFE or at least coated with bridged PTFE. A heater is provided inside the fixing roller for heating the fixing roller. A paper with a toner image thereon is made to pass through a nipping part formed by the pressure plate and the fixing roller. The image is fixed to the paper by the application of the pressure and the heat.

An image forming device comprises a fixing device that is composed of a fixing roller and a sheet-shaped pressure unit. The position of the fixing nip portion is set above a plane containing a transporting direction of the recording paper at the transferring nip portion. A recording paper guider is further disposed for guiding the recording paper transported by the transferring roller to the fixing roller. The guiding surface of the recording paper guider is inclined and gradually raised beginning at the transferring roller side (as the lowest position).

A fixing device including a heat transmitting unit and a sheet unit. The heat transmitting unit has a heating source, which can be for example disposed inside the heat transmitting unit. The sheet unit is in contact with the heat transmitting unit for applying a pressure against the heat transmitting unit. One end of the sheet unit is fixed on an installation fitment that is arrange at an upstream side of a transporting direction of a recording paper with respect to the heat transmitting unit, and the other end of the sheet unit is pressed to be in contact with the heat transmitting unit. Furthermore, when the recording paper, where a toner image has been transferred thereon, passes through a nip portion between the heat transmitting unit and the sheet unit, the toner image is fixed by pressing and heating onto the recording paper.

A fixing device for a printing device is provided. The fixing device comprises a fixing unit, heated by a heating source; and a sheet-shaped pressure unit, having an elasticity and in contact with the fixing unit by pressing against the fixing unit. When a recording paper that a toner image has been transcribed thereon passes through a nip portion between the sheet pressing unit and the fixing unit, by pressing and heating, the toner image is fixed on the recording paper. In addition, a surface layer is formed on a surface of the fixing unit, wherein the surface layer comprises a material such as a glass fiber, a graphite, a bronze etc, for increasing a friction coefficient. Further, the surface has a water contact angle greater than or equal to 90°. By setting the friction coefficient of the surface of the fixing roller to a range that the toner does not adhere thereon, the transporting property of the recording paper can be improved.
摘要:
An image forming apparatus including a sheet feed apparatus configured to sequentially separate sheets stacked on a sheet stacking member. The sheet feed apparatus includes a sheet feed roller configured to come in pressing contact with the uppermost sheet in order to feed the sheet. The sheet feed apparatus also includes a tilt member arranged to oppose the sheet feed roller. The sheet feed apparatus includes a contact face arranged to press against the sheet feed roller. The sheet feed apparatus also includes a tilt face arranged to contact an edge of the uppermost sheet. The tilt face and the contact face are formed from one of polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), polyethylene (PE), metal, poly-ether-ether-ketone (PEEK), and polyimide (PI) to provide superior wear resistance.
