Abstract

A fixing device (9) includes a belt (20) that rotates in a rotation direction and a heater (22) that heats the belt (20). A conductive member (40) contacts an inner face (20a) of the belt (20) and pivots. The conductive member (40) includes one end portion (40a) in the rotation direction of the belt (20), a contact portion (40b) that contacts the belt (20), and an outboard portion (40f) that is disposed outboard from the contact portion (40b) in the rotation direction of the belt (20). A holding portion (23a) holds the one end portion (40a) of the conductive member (40). A pivot restrictor (23b) contacts the outboard portion (40f) of the conductive member (40). The pivot restrictor (23b) restricts pivoting of the conductive member (40) about the one end portion (40a) of the conductive member (40).
