Abstract
A magnetic displaying device adapted for hanging on a wall including a displaying panel made of a hanging panel and a parallel disposed magnetic displaying panel between which is disposed a liquid containing magnetic particles. A translatable erasing magnet is arranged perpendicular to the downward direction of the device and coupled to a magnet lifting mechanism. The erasing magnet rests at either the upper or lower end of the panel and moves up and down through guiding means such as rails. A string or the like coupled to the lifting mechanism is pulled downwardly to move the erasing magnet.

A wall-hanging type magnetic displaying device comprising:
- A. A displaying panel comprising:
- a. a hanging panel disposed parallel to a panel having a magnetic displaying section incorporating a liquid in which magnetic particles are dispersed, a predetermined space being provided between said hanging panel and said panel having a magnetic displaying section;
- b. an erasing magnet member, means for moving said erasing magnet member including means for biasing said erasing magnet member in one direction and, means fixedly secured to at least one of said panels for retaining said biasing means;
- c. said erasing magnet member having an elongated magnet arranged with the elongate direction perpendicular to the downward direction of said device hung and connected to one end of said biasing means so that said magnet is positioned at rest at an upper or lower end portion of said panel due to bias in one direction;
- d. guide means provided on at least one of said panels for guiding said erasing magnet member;
- and
- e. operating means connected to one of said means for biasing and erasing magnet member so that said operating means extends along the downward direction of the device to move said erasing magnet member in a direction opposite to the bias direction and wherein upon release of said operating means said erasing magnet member reciprocates due to said bias to be restored to the rest position;
- and
- B. a displaying magnet adapted to move the magnetic particles in said dispersed liquid.
