Abstract
A fixing device includes a heating member, a pressure member, a pressure mechanism, and a fixing frame. The pressure mechanism includes a pressure plate, a biasing member, a cam member, and a support member. The pressure plate swings in an approaching direction and a separating direction with respect to one of the heating member and the pressure member. The biasing member biases the pressure plate in the approaching direction with respect to one of the heating member and the pressure member. The cam member contacts the pressure plate on a side opposite to the biasing member and rotates to cause the pressure plate to swing. The support member is secured to the fixing frame and supports one end of the biasing member and a swing fulcrum of the pressure plate. The support member has a through hole in which a rotation axis of the cam member is inserted.
