摘要： A nip former includes a base, an enhanced thermal conductor including an insertion hole, and a securing member including an inserting portion to be inserted into the insertion hole to attach the securing member to the enhanced thermal conductor such that the enhanced thermal conductor and the securing member sandwich the base. The inserting portion has a width that is smaller than a width of the insertion hole in a pressurization direction of an opposed rotator that presses against the nip former via a belt. The inserting portion does not contact an upstream wall and a downstream wall of the insertion hole in the pressurization direction of the opposed rotator and a direction opposite the pressurization direction of the opposed rotator in a state in which the securing member is secured to the base and the opposed rotator presses against the enhanced thermal conductor via the belt.

摘要： A fixing device includes an endless belt and an opposed rotary body contacting an outer circumferential surface of the belt. A nip formation pad contacting a first part of an inner circumferential surface of the belt presses against the opposed rotary body via the belt to form a fixing nip between the belt and the opposed rotary body through which a recording medium bearing a toner image is conveyed. A heat conductor disposed opposite a second part of the inner circumferential surface of the belt not contacted by the nip formation pad is interposed between a heater and the belt to conduct heat from the heater to the belt. A reflector disposed inside the loop formed by the belt reflects light from the heater toward the heat conductor. The reflector and the heat conductor surround the heater.

摘要： A fixing device includes a fixing rotary body and a pressing rotary body disposed opposite the fixing rotary body. A pivotable pressurization member contacts and presses the pressing rotary body against the fixing rotary body. A pressurization pivot is provided on the pressurization member. A depressurization member, pivotable about the pressurization pivot, causes the pressurization member to isolate the pressing rotary body from the fixing rotary body. A depressurization pivot is provided on the depressurization member. A lock is pivotable about the depressurization pivot and engageable with the pressurization pivot. A biasing member, anchored to the lock, exerts a resilient bias that allows the lock to cause the pressurization member to press the pressing rotary body against the fixing rotary body. A detent is situated in a pivotal trajectory of the lock to restrict pivot of the lock by contacting the lock.
