Abstract:
A fixing device includes a fixing rotator unit and an induction heating portion. The fixing rotator unit includes a heating rotary belt, a pressing member being in contact with the inner surface of the heating rotary belt, a pressurizing rotator forming a fixing nip between the pressurizing rotator and the pressing member, a belt guide member including a guide portion and an extending portion, positioning the heating rotary belt, and guiding rotation. The induction heating portion includes a magnetic-flux generating portion, a magnetic core portion, and a support member supporting the magnetic-flux generating portion. The support member includes a positioning portion that positions the belt guide member by coming into contact with or engaging the extending portion to control a distance between the magnetic-flux generating portion and the outer surface of the heating rotary belt.
