PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enable simply, surely and inexpensively preventing vapor of volatilized releasing agent oil out of such as the oil applying device mounted in a fixing device from being discharged outside of the fixing device and flowing to the transfer device side. SOLUTION: This device is allowed to provide an air blocking member 20 blocking the air flow in a gap presenting between a first fixing rotary body 3 on which the releasing agent is applied and an inside wall of a housing 5 for storing the fixing rotary body 3 therein. In such a manner, the air flow flowing so as to pass through the housing 5 inside is restrained from generating, therefore the oil vapor is at least, prevented from leaking outside the housing 5 by the air flow. |
