PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a constitution of electrode connector part which is easily attached/detached and which surely comes into contact with an electrode member to feed power because a heater whose nip surface is in a curved surface shape must be used differently from the conventional plane ceramic heater in a fixing device using a metallic tube as a fixing film. SOLUTION: At the end of a heating heater constituted by forming an insulating layer and a conductive heating resistance layer in an arched state on a metallic high heat conduction base plate having curved surface shape, (1) an electrode member is formed in the arched state and pressed along a feed pattern, (2) a conductive spacer is brought into contact with the feed pattern, and the spacer and the electrode member are brought into contact with each other on a plane, (3) the end of the heater is extended vertically upward, and is brought into contact with the electrode member on the plane part. By such constitution, safe feed free from the burning of a contact is realized.
