ABSTRACT:
An original-cover closer has: a mounting or base member to be installed on the body of a copying machine; a supporting member pivoted at side plates thereof by a first hinge pin to side plates of the mounting member and on which an original cover is supported and; a lifting member mounted at side plates thereof by a second hinge pin on the supporting member at free ends of the side plates thereof to be pivotable in an opposite direction to the direction in which the support member is opened and closed and to which the original cover is to be fixed. A control pin is provided between the side plates of the lifting member and near but off the second hinge pin and the closer further includes; an original-cover weight bearing pin provided between the side plates of the mounting member and near but off the first hinge pin; a first spring receiving member engaged on or pivoted to the control pin; a second spring receiving member engaged or pivoted on the control pin and assembled telescopically with the first spring receiving member; an elastic member and provided between the second and first spring receiving members to force the supporting member in the opening direction of the original cover and also the lifting member in a direction in which the lifting member overlaps the supporting member. Cuts or guide slots are formed in the side plates of the supporting member to allow the control pin to move about the second hinge pin as the lifting member is pivoted, thereby covering horizontally the top of even a thick original placed on a contact glass cover.
