A peripheral with a pivotal turn-over guiding mechanism includes: a transporting mechanism; first to third passages; an image processing unit disposed on the first passage, wherein after the image processing unit performs a first image process on a first side of a medium, the transporting mechanism transports the medium into, partially out of and back into the second passage, into the third passage, and then into the first passage, and the image processing unit performs a second image process on a second side of the medium; and a guide member, which is rotatably disposed at a connection portion of the third passage, the second passage and the first passage, normally closes a forward path from the first passage to the second passage, and normally opens a reverse path from the second passage to the third passage.

Peripheral with pivotal turn-over guide mechanism

The disclosure provides an image forming apparatus for accommodating photosensitive assembly having first assembly shaft. The image forming apparatus includes casing, fixing mechanism and cover plate. The casing has first guide groove, and the first assembly shaft is configured to be slidably disposed in the first guide groove. The fixing mechanism is movably mounted on the casing so as to be movable between a blocking state and a releasing state. The cover plate is movably connected the casing so as to be movable between an opened position and a closed position. When the cover plate is moved to the closed position, the cover plate forces the fixing mechanism to move to the blocking state to block the first guide groove and cover a bottom surface of the first guide groove so as to retain the first assembly shaft of the photosensitive assembly between the fixing mechanism and the bottom surface.

Image forming apparatus

A fusing device includes a driving roller and a fusing unit including a heat insulating component, a heat generating component, a heat conducting component connected to the heat insulating component, a heat reflecting component, a metal reinforcing component and a fusing component. The heat generating component and the heat reflecting component are located inside the heat insulating component. The metal reinforcing component is located outside the heat insulating component and separated from the heat conducting component. The fusing component movably surrounds the heat conducting component, the heat insulating component and the metal reinforcing component. The heat reflecting component reflects heat generated from the heat generating component to the heat conducting component. The heat conducting component conducts the heat to the fusing component. The fusing component contacts with a printing media to fuse toners onto the printing media by heating when the driving roller drives the printing media to move.

Fusing device adapted for fusing toners on a printing media and printing apparatus therewith

A fusing device includes a driving roller and a fusing unit. The driving roller is for driving a printing media to move. The fusing unit includes a heat insulating component, a heating component, a heat conductive component, a heat reflecting component and a fusing component. The heating component is for generating heat. The heat reflecting component includes a reflecting portion having a cross section formed in a conic section substantially. The reflecting portion is located at a side of the heating component away from the heat conductive component for reflecting the heat generated from the heating component to the heat conductive component. The heat conductive component transfers the heat to the fusing component. The fusing component contacts with the printing media to fuse toners onto the printing media when the driving roller drives the printing media to move.
