<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve a problem that a thermal influence on components located near the end part of an image heating member is increased when the heat is generated in a part other than the paper passing area of the heating member equally in the paper passing area. <P>SOLUTION: The image heating member has a first area where a Curie temperature is higher than a set temperature and a second area where a Curie temperature is lower than that, and the width of the first area in a direction orthogonal to the recording material conveying direction is equal to or exceeding the width of the maximum-sized passing recording material, and the second area is provided outside the first area. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT</p> |
