    摘要: A fixing device for thermally fixing an unfixed image formed on a recording sheet by passing the recording sheet through a fixing nip. The fixing device has: a heat-generating endless belt having, on a circumferential surface thereof, a sheet passing area through which the recording sheet passes; a first pressure member disposed inside a running path of the endless belt; and a second pressure member disposed to press the endless belt against the first pressure member from outside the running path to form the fixing nip. The endless belt includes: a resistive heat layer that generates heat upon receiving electric current; and a pair of electrode layers that receive electric current. The electrode layers flank the sheet passing area. The resistive heat layer is in contact with the electrode layers at a different one of end faces opposing each other in a width direction of the resistive heat layer.

    摘要: Fixing device for fixing image onto recording sheet by applying heat and pressure thereto while it passes through fixing nip, including: pressure belt movable in revolving motion; fixing roller; and pressure member for pressing inner surface of the belt toward the roller. The fixing nip is formed between the roller and belt while elastically deformable surface of the roller is contacted with the belt by pressure applied by pressure member to the belt. The pressure member includes: elastic member for applying pressures so that greater pressure is applied to center of the roller than to ends, the center and ends being along axis direction of the roller; and hard member that is disposed parallel to the elastic member on downstream side thereof in revolving direction of the belt and applies pressures to the roller so that greater pressure is applied to end0s than to center.

    摘要: The present invention provides a developing device which is capable of suppressing the generation of a fogging phenomenon and deposition of carrier particles to an electrostatic latent image carrier and developing the electrostatic latent image efficiently, the device comprising a development sleeve and a magnet body onto which the sleeve is fitted, and using a two-component developer. An angular position which indicates the peak value of the magnetic flux density in the normal direction produced by a development pole of the magnet body is shifted downstream from the center position of the development pole in the direction of movement of the surface of a photosensitive member in a development region. The present invention also provides an image forming apparatus which can form high-quality images with reduced noise such as fogging by mounting the developing device.
