Abstract
An improved magnetic securing device that incorporates a neodymium magnet, a securing member, and a means of remote placement. The remote placement is intended to be manual and may be accomplished by magnetic or physical mating to a pole used for extending the reach of the person placing the device. The securing member may be a clip, hook, confining passageway, or other. If a securing member is not provided, objects desired to be secured to the remotely hung device could be permanently affixed.
Claims20
1) A magnetic device comprising:
- a) a permanent magnet with a flat base and at least one other surface;
- b) a projecting tab affixed to said other surface;
- and
- c) said projecting tab includes a first part of a two part, releasable, cooperative mating system,
- whereby said first part of said two part, releasable, cooperative mating system may be matingly engaged to another object so that a predetermined movement of said other object will cause movement of said magnetic device.
16) An elongated magnetic securement device comprising:
- a) a permanent magnet with a flat base and at least one other surface;
- b) a projecting tab affixed to said other surface;
- c) said projecting tab includes an elongated segment with a basal end and a projecting end;
- d) said basal end located proximal to said permanent magnet;
- e) said projecting end located a predetermined distance away from said permanent magnet;
- f) said projecting tab includes a securing member;
- and
- g) said securing member located proximal to said projecting end,
- whereby structurally independent objects can be attached to said securing member and held a predetermined distance away from said permanent magnet.
18) A magnetic device comprising:
- a) a permanent magnet with a flat base and at least one other surface;
- and
- b) said other surface including a first part of a two part, releasable, cooperative mating system,
- whereby said first part of a two part, releasable, cooperative mating system may be matingly engaged to another object so that a predetermined movement of said other object will cause movement of said magnetic device.
19) A decorative light strand held by a magnetic securement device comprising:
- a) a permanent magnet with a flat base and at least one other surface;
- b) a projecting tab affixed to said other surface;
- c) said projecting tab including a securing member;
- d) said permanent magnet and said projecting tab together forming said magnetic securement device;
- e) said decorative light strand comprising a plug, insulated electrical wires and lights;
- and
- f) said decorative light strand held by said securing member,
- whereby said decorative light strand may be magnetically attached to ferric surfaces.
