Abstract:
A fusing device and an image forming apparatus are described in which a pressing member and a heating member of the fusing device are disposed adjacent to one another in a first direction. The heating member includes a fusing belt having a first side in contact with the pressing member, a heat source, disposed at a second side of the fusing belt, to heat the fusing belt, and a heat source seat having a concave structure in which the heat source is mountable.

Claim (Index 13):
An image forming apparatus, comprising:\n a main body; a developing device to form an image on a photoreceptor; a transferring device to transfer the image formed on the photoreceptor to a printing medium; and a fusing device to fuse the image, which is transferred to the printing medium by the transferring device, to the printing medium, the fusing device including:\n a pressing member, and \n a heating member, disposed adjacent to the pressing member in a first direction, the heating member including:\n a fusing belt having a first side in contact with the pressing member, \n a heat source, disposed at a second side of the fusing belt, to heat the fusing belt, \n a heat source seat, having a concave structure in which the heat source is mountable, and \n a pressing support member, disposed at a first side of the heat source seat, to press the heat source in a second direction, transverse to the first direction, toward a second side of the heat source seat that is opposite the first side of the heat source seat.
