Abstract
A sink plug arrangement comprises a first permanent magnet arranged to counteract movement of a sink plug within a sink outlet, wherein said sink plug is movable between a first and second state relative the sink outlet. A second permanent magnet arranged to, in the second state, repel the first magnet. A well-defined position is thereby achieved without any moving parts in the sink plug.

A sink plug arrangement comprising a first magnet arranged to counteract a movement of a sink plug within a sink outlet, wherein said sink plug is movable between a first, upper state and second, lower state relative the sink outlet, and wherein the sink plug is provided with a stem which during operation is vertically oriented in the sink outlet, and a knob adapted to be gripped by a user of the sink plug arrangement, wherein a second, fixed magnet is arranged to, in the second, lower state, repel the first magnet, so that the sink plug arrangement is maintained in its lower state by the repellant force between the first and second magnets, wherein the first magnet is provided in the stem.
