ABSTRACT:
A door closer includes a body having a closed, fluid-filled cylinder. A piston is slidably mounted in the cylinder and has an actuating rod with rack gearing. A pinion is rotatably mounted on the body for meshing with the rack gearing of the actuating rod to axially move the piston. The closer also has a valve that can bypass fluid past the piston to regulate its motion. A spring mounted outside the cylinder can apply a balanced, substantially axial force to the actuating rod for axially urging the piston.
