Patent ID: 10378261

Abstract:
A door closer having a closer body 1 housing an electrical actuator 20 connected to one or more electrical connectors, such as plugs 24, each of which may be located in two or more different positions on the closer body to facilitate connection of the closer to an electrical circuit when the closer is mounted in different orientations, without providing a greater number of electrical connectors. The closer body may have a rotary shaft 7 connected to a door control arm 9, a first latch member 6 mounted relative to the closer body and a second latch member 29 mounted relative to the rotary shaft, the second latch member being arranged to engage with the first latch member to arrest rotation of the rotary shaft to latch the rotary shaft in a desired position. A mounting structure 8 connects the control arm and enables the angle between the control arm and the second latch member to be varied between 0 and at least 90 degrees.
