Abstract:
In an image heating device having a plurality of heating blocks which are controllable independently in a longitudinal direction of a heater, an increase of the size of the heater can be suppressed, and temperatures of a plurality of heating block can be detected. A heater has a first temperature sensor corresponding to a first heating block, a second temperature sensor corresponding to a second heating block, a first electric conductor electrically coupled to the first temperature sensor, a second electric conductor electrically coupled to the second temperature sensor, and a common electric conductor electrically coupled to the first and second temperature sensors.

Claim (Index 2):
The heater according to  claim 1 , wherein each of the first and second heating blocks has a first electric conductor provided along the longitudinal direction, a second electric conductor provided along the longitudinal direction at a different position in a short-side direction of the substrate from that of the first electric conductor, and a heat generating member provided between the first electric conductor and the second electric conductor and configured to generate heat from electric power supplied through the first electric conductor and the second electric conductor.
