Abstract (en)

[origin: EP3214502A1] A fixing device (12) includes a fixing member, a pressure member (32), and a separating unit (35). The pressure member (32) is rotatably located and in a pressure contact with the fixing member to form a fixing nip (N). The separating unit (35) is configured to separate a sheet (S) from the fixing member. The sheet (S) is attached on the fixing member when passing through the fixing nip (N). The separating unit (35) includes a sliding member (40), a claw member (41), and a turning mechanism (42). The sliding member (40) is located in a state of contacting a surface of the fixing member. The claw member (41) runs toward the fixing nip (N) from the sliding member (40). The claw member (41) has a distal end portion. The claw member (41) is located in a state where the distal end portion contacts the surface of the fixing member. The turning mechanism (42) reciprocates the sliding member (40) and the claw member (41) along a rotation direction of the fixing member.
