FUSER FOR IMAGE FORMATION EQUIPMENT, WHICH INCLUDES A PRESSING UNIT WHICH HAS A CARBON NANOTUBE HEATING LAYER CAPABLE OF IMPROVING PERFORMANCE BY REDUCTION OF A HEAT LOSS

摘要

PURPOSE: A fuser for image formation equipment which includes a pressing unit which has a carbon nanotube heating layer is provided to reduce power consumption by reducing the heat loss of the fuser.;CONSTITUTION: A fusing device(100) includes a heating unit(110) and a pressing unit(120). The heating element(114) of the heating unit heats an unfixed image in a print media. The pressing unit makes contact with the heating unit and forms a fusing nip. The pressing unit includes a carbon nanotube heating layer as 'a second heat source for heating the unfixed image'.;COPYRIGHT KIPO 2013
