Abstract
A fixing device includes a fixing member, a pressure member, and a separating unit. The pressure member is rotatably located and in a pressure contact with the fixing member to form a fixing nip. The separating unit is configured to separate a sheet from the fixing member. The sheet is attached on the fixing member when passing through the fixing nip. The separating unit includes a sliding member, a claw member, and a turning mechanism. The sliding member is located in a state of contacting a surface of the fixing member. The claw member runs toward the fixing nip from the sliding member. The claw member has a distal end portion. The claw member is located in a state where the distal end portion contacts the surface of the fixing member. The turning mechanism reciprocates the sliding member and the claw member along a rotation direction of the fixing member.
