Abstract:
1. An adjustable door closer comprising: a hollow pedestal, comprising a first chamber and a second chamber filled with lubricating oil as well as an actuating groove linked to respective ends of the first and second chambers; a partition wall is formed between the first and second chambers; an actuating device, set into the actuating groove of the hollow pedestal, comprising an actuating seat and a driving shaft; the driving shaft is provided with a driven end protruding out of the hollow pedestal, and the driving shaft has a cam that can drive the actuating seat to generate translational movement during rotation of the shaft; a first piston assembly, set into the first chamber of the hollow pedestal, comprising a first piston head, a first link rod and a first spring; the first piston head is configured to slide back and forth in the first chamber, the first link rod links the first piston head and the actuating seat of the actuating device, and the first spring is assembled on the first link rod between the first piston head and a stopper surface of the actuating groove; an axial through-hole, formed axially onto the first piston head of the first piston assembly, such that the axial center of the first piston head allows for free flow of lubricating oil; a second piston assembly, set into the second chamber of the hollow pedestal, comprising a second piston head, a second link rod and a second spring, the second piston head is configured to slide back and forth in the second chamber, the second link rod links the second piston head and the actuating seat of the actuating device, and the second spring is assembled on the second link rod between the second piston head and the stopper surface of the actuating groove; a check valve is mounted onto one end of the second piston head, so as to allow the flow of lubricating oil only from the actuating groove to the second chamber, or otherwise the check valve is under a closed state; a laterally configured flow resistance unit, set onto the partition wall formed between the first and second chambers, comprising a primary backflow channel and a secondary backflow channel set along the extended direction of the partition wall and also configured vertically at interval; wherein both ends of the secondary backflow channel are closed, while one end of the primary backflow channel is closed, and the other end is linked to the actuating groove; the primary backflow channel is linked to the secondary chamber via a connecting hole adjacent to the closed end of said primary backflow channel, and the secondary backflow channel is linked to the second chamber via a first backflow bypass hole and a second backflow bypass hole; wherein said first backflow bypass hole, said second backflow bypass hole and said connecting hole are positioned in that order along the extended direction of the extended wall, such that when the second piston head is not actuated, only the second backflow bypass hole is blocked off by the second piston head; a first-section regulating valve, set onto the partition wall correspondingly to the primary and secondary backflow channels; and the regulating position of the first-section regulating valve is configured to regulate the oil flow between the primary backflow channel and the first backflow bypass hole of the secondary backflow channel; a second-section regulating valve, set onto the partition wall correspondingly to the primary and second backflow channels; and the regulating position of the second-section regulating valve is configured to regulate the oil flow between the primary backflow channel and the second backflow bypass hole of the secondary backflow channel.
