Flashlight magnifier attachment

An assembly adapted for attachment to a penlight body, comprising:

• A. housing means formed with a rear end and a front end in longitudinally spaced relationship to each other and an axially extending aperture extending inwardly from said rear end, said aperture adapted to receive the bulbed end of said penlight body in seated telescopic relation thereto,
• B. first magnetic means extending circumferentially on said housing means in spaced relationship to said front end and terminating in a free end thereof,
• C. shoulder means disposed intermediate said first magnetic means and said front end,
• D. viewing means adapted to be mounted on said shoulder means,
• E. coupling means having an inner end and a spaced apart outer end with an axially directed bore extending inwardly of said inner end for securing said viewing means in removable fixed relationship to said first magnetic means by means of a magnetic force formed between said first magnetic means and said coupling means,
• F. second magnetic means extending within said viewing means in spaced relationship to said outer end,
• G. filter means adapted to be positioned within said bore and magnetically attracted to said second magnetic means such that said filter means is readily replaced from time to time as desired,
• H. said coupling means being at least partially fabricated from a metallic material having magnetic characteristics, and including an aperture extending inwardly of said outer end and connected to said axially directed bore so as to permit the light from the bulbed end of said penlight to pass through said filter means such that said light may be directed at the object being viewed,
• I. said viewing means being sandwiched intermediate said free end of said first magnetic means and said inner end of said coupling means,
• J. said filter means includes a portion thereof fabricated from a metallic material having magnetic characteristics,
• K. said second magnetic means extending circumferentially to said filter means for removably retaining said filter means in position,
• L. alignment means to properly position said viewing means relative to said housing means, and
• M. said viewing means including:
• (1) a base having an opening therethrough, with said opening adapted to extend in telescopic relationship to said shoulder means,
• (2) a flange extending outwardly relative to said base, and
• (3) magnifying means fixedly secured to said flange.
