20140079450 | FIXING DEVICE AND IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS - A fixing device includes a pair of fixing members that contact each other and that rotate or circulate, and that heat and press a sheet to fix the toner image to the sheet, the pair of fixing members being such that at least one of the pair of fixing members is to be cleaned; and a first cleaning device that cleans the at least one of the pair of fixing members to be cleaned by removing any residual toner on the at least one of the pair of fixing members to be cleaned therefrom. The at least one of the pair of fixing members to be cleaned includes a fixing belt and a supporting member. The first cleaning device includes a cleaning roller. The at least one of the pair of fixing members to be cleaned further includes a first contact member. | 03-20-2014 |
20140079451 | CLEANING DEVICE, FIXING DEVICE, AND IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS - A cleaning device includes a first cleaning roller and a second cleaning roller. The first cleaning roller contacts a member to be cleaned and rotates, separates any matter to be removed that is stuck on the member to be cleaned from the member to be cleaned, and causes the matter to be removed to adhere to the first cleaning roller. The first cleaning roller has a diameter that decreases continuously from a center thereof towards both ends thereof in a direction of a rotation axis. The member to be cleaned rotates or circulates. The second cleaning roller contacts the first cleaning roller and rotates, separates the matter to be removed that is stuck on the first cleaning roller from the first cleaning roller, and causes the matter to be removed to adhere to the second cleaning roller. | 03-20-2014 |
20140079452 | CLEANING DEVICE, FIXING DEVICE, AND IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS - A cleaning device includes a first cleaning roller and a second cleaning roller. The first cleaning roller contacts a member to be cleaned, rotates, separates any matter to be removed that is stuck on the member to be cleaned from the member to be cleaned, and causes the matter to be removed to adhere to the first cleaning roller. The member to be cleaned rotates or circulates. The first cleaning roller has an elastic peripheral surface. The second cleaning roller has a peripheral surface whose hardness is higher than that of the first cleaning roller. The second cleaning roller pushes the first cleaning roller and rotates while causing the first cleaning roller to be elastically recessed, to separate the matter to be removed that is stuck on the first cleaning roller therefrom and cause the matter to be removed to adhere to the second cleaning roller. | 03-20-2014 |
20140079459 | FIXING DEVICE AND IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS - A fixing device includes a pair of fixing members that contact each other and that rotate or circulate, and that heat and press a sheet that is transported with a toner image being carried thereby and that is interposed between the fixing members, to fix the toner image to the sheet; and a guide member that guides to a fixing area the sheet that is transported towards the fixing members. The guide member includes a metallic member and resin members. The metallic member has a guide surface that faces the sheet that is transported towards the guide member. The resin members are disposed at the guide surface so as to be spaced apart from each other in a widthwise direction. The resin members protrude from the guide surface and are struck by a front edge of the sheet in the transport direction of the sheet. | 03-20-2014 |
