PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a fixing device that can ensure a predetermined nip width with a small number of components compared with a configuration using a plurality of pressing members.SOLUTION: A fixing device 60 comprises: a first rotating body (heating roll 62 as an example); a cylindrical second rotating body (pressure belt 64 as an example) that is arranged in contact with an outer surface of the first rotating body and rotates with the first rotating body to convey a recording medium (sheet member P as an example) held with the first rotating body; and a pressure member 72 that is arranged inside the second rotating body, has a thin wall part 73 formed along the rotation axis direction of the second rotating body, and is bent at the thin wall part 73 to press the second rotating body against the first rotating body at both ends across the thin wall part.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2 |
