Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a door closer, and more particularly to a support arm connection structure for a door closer. Background Technology
[0002] See Figure 11 and Figure 12 The diagram shows a schematic of a prior art door closer support arm structure. One end of the support arm 1 is integrally welded with a sleeve 14. The bottom surface of the sleeve 14 has a quincunx-shaped cavity 15, and the top surface of the support arm 1 has an opening 12 corresponding to the sleeve 14. The top of the opening 12 has a recess 13. The door closer, which cooperates with the support arm 1, has a damping shaft. The end of the damping shaft extends out of the door closer's housing and has a square transmission connector. During installation, the door closer is placed on the door leaf, and the support arm 1 cooperates with the square transmission connector of the damping shaft through the quincunx-shaped cavity 15. The other end of the support arm 1 is connected to the door frame through a hinge. Because the height of the sleeve 14 is fixed and cannot be disassembled, when the installation space of the door leaf is limited, the integral sleeve support arm will interfere with the upper door frame. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a door closer arm connection structure that is structurally reasonable and can be used in a variety of door sizes.
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is achieved as follows: A door closer arm connection structure includes an arm and a connecting screw. The door closer has a damping shaft, the end of which extends out of the door closer's housing and has a transmission connector. The end face of the transmission connector has a connecting screw hole. One end of the arm has a transmission connection hole adapted to the transmission connector. The transmission connection hole directly engages with the transmission connector to achieve circumferential transmission. The connecting screw passes through the transmission connection hole and connects to the connecting screw hole. Alternatively, the transmission connection hole connects to the transmission connector through a shim sleeve. The two ends of the shim sleeve have adapted transmission pins and transmission cavities corresponding to the transmission connection hole and the transmission connector, respectively. The center of the transmission pin also has a through hole corresponding to the connecting screw. The through hole extends from the end face of the transmission pin to the inner end face of the transmission cavity. The transmission pin and the transmission cavity engage with the transmission connection hole and the transmission connector, respectively, to achieve mutual circumferential transmission. The connecting screw passes through the transmission connection hole and the through hole and connects to the connecting screw hole.
[0005] The objective of this utility model can also be achieved by the following technical measures: As a more specific embodiment, the cross-sections of the transmission connector, the transmission connection hole, the transmission column head, and the transmission sleeve cavity are all square.
[0006] As a further solution, the wall surface of the transmission connection hole is inclined relative to the long side of the support arm. Given that the relative positions of the damping shaft and the door closer mounting surface are fixed, and the length of the support arm is fixed, the mating angle between the transmission connector of the damping shaft and the transmission connection hole of the support arm is determined. This structure, by limiting the relative inclination angle of the transmission connection hole, facilitates one-step installation; and the shape of the transmission connection hole perfectly matches the outer wall of the transmission connector, avoiding the shortcomings of the existing quincunx-shaped connection holes and square connectors. Furthermore, because the mating area is larger, wear and slippage on the contact surface are prevented.
[0007] As a further embodiment, the shim sleeve includes a column body, the top surface of which protrudes to provide the transmission column head, and the bottom surface of which is recessed upward to form the transmission sleeve cavity.
[0008] As a further embodiment, the depth of the transmission connection hole is greater than the height of the transmission connector and the height of the transmission column head, respectively.
[0009] As a further embodiment, the connecting screw includes a long screw and a short screw. The long screw passes through the transmission connecting hole and the through hole and then connects to the connecting screw hole; the short screw passes through the transmission connecting hole and then connects to the connecting screw hole.
[0010] As a further embodiment, a first annular boss is provided between the nut and the screw of the short screw, and a first groove is provided in the transmission connector corresponding to the first annular boss.
[0011] As a further embodiment, a second annular boss is provided between the nut and the screw of the long screw, and a second groove is provided on the transmission column head corresponding to the first annular boss.
[0012] As a further embodiment, a smooth section is provided between the screw rod of the long screw and the second annular boss corresponding to the through hole.
[0013] As a further embodiment, the top edge of the transmission column and the bottom edge of the transmission sleeve cavity are chamfered.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: The support arm and the shim sleeve of this utility model are set separately. It can be disconnected from the shim sleeve and connected to the damping shaft transmission to reduce its installation space and is suitable for use in narrow door frames. When the installation position allows, the shim sleeve can be added for installation, making it more widely applicable. Attached Figure Description
