Abstract: The present application relates to the field of image forming technology, and in particular, provides a conductive component, a process cartridge, and an image forming apparatus. The conductive component includes the conductive members which include the electrical contacts; at least two of the electrical contacts have different first projection lengths in a second direction; the first projection length is the length between a first projection position which is the projection position of the electrical contact in the second direction and a second projection position which is the projection position of a first reference position in the second direction; the first reference position is any point on a side of the conductive component away from the electrical contacts; an installation direction of the process cartridge is a first direction, the second direction is arranged intersecting the first direction, the second direction is parallel to an axial direction of a roller member.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a fixing device and an image forming apparatus. Fixing device includes a device main body, including a heater, where the device main body includes a driving end connected to a power outputting part of the image forming apparatus and a non-driving end opposite to the driving end; a locking element, disposed on the non-driving end of the device main body; and a chip, including a contact part. When the device main body is installed on the image forming apparatus, the locking element is connected to the image forming apparatus, and the contact part of the chip is electrically connected to the image forming apparatus; and a projection of the contact part of the chip in an axial direction of the heater intersects a projection of the locking element in the axial direction of the heater.
