  • This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18343933 Titled 'IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS'

Simplified Explanation

The image forming apparatus described in the abstract consists of a circuit that includes a fixing unit circuit and a power control circuit. The circuit board of the apparatus has three circuits: a first circuit that supplies power to a heater from an AC power supply, a second circuit that is electrically insulated from the first circuit, and a third circuit that is electrically insulated from both the first and second circuits. These three circuits are arranged in a straight line on one surface of the circuit board, with the first circuit, third circuit, and second circuit in that order.
