Abstract
Provided is a suction device and a suction disc capable of obtaining suction force that can control generation or disappearance of suction force through formation or disappearance of magnetic field. A suction device (1A) has a suction disc (10) formed of an elastomer that is deformable by magnetic force, a support portion (20) configured to support the suction disc (10) such that the suction disc can be deformed and a suction disc deforming element (30) configured to deform the elastomer by magnetic force.
