  • Patent number: 9416578
    Abstract: Disclosed is a door closer that can easily adjust the spring force of a return spring. A piston 2 moves toward a first oil chamber 15 upon a door opening operation and moves toward a second oil chamber 16 upon a door closing operation. A return spring 50 is located on the same line as the piston 2. The return spring 50 is interposed between a spring retaining seat on a fixed side close to a main shaft 3 and a spring retaining seat on a moving side distant from the main shaft 3. The return spring 50 is compressed by the spring retaining seat on the moving side moving closer to the spring retaining seat on the fixed side upon the door opening operation and then stores the closing force.
