Abstract:
A fixing device includes a casing, a fixing member, a pressuring member, a pressure adjusting part and a correction biasing part. The fixing member heats a toner image on a medium while rotating inside the casing. The pressuring member forms a pressuring area with the fixing member while rotating inside the casing to pressure a toner on the medium passing through the pressuring area. The pressure adjusting part presses one of the fixing member and the pressuring member to the other to pressurize the pressuring area, and releases pressing of the one to depressurize the pressuring area. The correction biasing part, in a case where a supporting shaft part supporting the other by the casing penetrates the casing, biases both sides in an axial direction of the supporting shaft part extended to the outside of the casing in a similar direction to a pressurizing direction of the pressure adjusting part.

Claim (Index 3):
The fixing device according to  claim 1  further comprising:\n a second correction biasing part being provided outside the casing to correspond to the pressure adjusting part, \n wherein the fixing member is supported by the casing via the supporting shaft part, \n the pressure adjusting part moves a movable member supporting the pressuring member by rotating an eccentric cam fixedly attached to a cam shaft part and bringing the eccentric cam into contact with the movable member to vary pressuring force of the pressuring area, \n the second correction biasing part biases both side in the axial direction of the cam shaft part penetrating the casing and being extended to the outside of the casing in an opposite direction to the pressurizing direction.
