Surface Heating Type Heating Unit for Fixing Device, and Fixing Device and Image Forming Apparatus including the Same

摘要

A surface heating type heating unit for a fixing device, and a fixing device and an image forming apparatus including the same. The surface heating type heating unit includes a planar heating element (210) on an outer circumferential surface of a supporter (220) having cylindrical shape, a power feeding terminal (230) at each end of the supporter, and a connector (240) disposed between the planar heating element and the power feeding terminal. The connector is formed on a first region on the power feeding terminal, and includes an adhesive material (241) for adhering the planar heating element and the power feeding terminal, and a conductive material (245) formed on a second region of the power feeding terminal excluding the first region.
