ABSTRACT:
In the fixing device with no oil leakage and a stable oil applying performance, the paper with a pre-fixed toner image is transmitted through the pressurized contact portion between a fixing roller and a pressurizing roller. An oil applying roller applied a silicon oil to the fixing roller. An oil applying felt with one end submerged to an oil tank contacts the oil applying roller. Further, in the outer side of the oil applying felt is mounted an oil collecting felt, which transmits extra oil wiped away by an equalizing member to the oil tank. The oil applying felt and the oil collecting felt is held by a felt holding plate, and is pressed towards the oil applying roller by a pressurizing spring.
