Abstract
An induction heat fusing device comprises a fusing roller and an induction coil induces an induction current in the fusing roller. The fusing roller has a nonmagnetic metallic hollow roller with good heat conduction properties and a magnetic metal layer formed on the outer peripheral surface of said roller that is heated by means of an induction current induced by the induction coil.
