Abstract
The present system is related to a door stopper assembly. The door stopper includes a sheath and a corresponding pin that slides within the sheath. A magnet may be used to extract the pin from the sheath. However, the pin and sheath are formed such that the opening of the sheath cavity is smaller than the diameter of the cavity along the length of the cavity and a flange of the pin is greater in diameter than the diameter of the opening. Thus the flange of the pin and a circumferential lip of the cavity contact each other to prevent the pin from being fully extracted from the cavity through the opening of the cavity.
Claims6
A door stopper assembly comprising:
- A magnet, a sheath, and a pin;
- the sheath comprising:
- a body having an inner wall that surrounds a cavity, a diameter of the cavity being defined by the inner wall, and a length;
- the inner wall including a circumferential lip that extends into the cavity and forms an opening wall and opening cavity having an opening diameter that is less than the diameter of the cavity
- the pin comprising:
- a shaft having a shaft diameter and a base flange having a base flange diameter that is greater than the shaft diameter;
- the base flange is connected to an end of the shaft;
- and
- at least a portion of the pin is magnetically reactive;
- wherein the base flange diameter is greater than the opening diameter.
