ABSTRACT:
A magnetic closure device is disclosed, having a magnetically attractive first element including a cylindrical shaped magnet defining an axial bore and having first and second axial ends with first and second opposite polarities respectively, and an annular cover member covering the first axial end of the cylindrical magnet. First element further includes a ferromagnetic plate having a portion adjacent the second axial end of the cylindrical magnet and a generally cylindrical wall portion disposed around the cylindrical shaped magnet and radially spaced a predetermined lateral distance therefrom. The cylindrical wall is connected to the annular cover member. A ferromagnetic rod extends from the ferromagnetic plate into the axial bore of the cylindrical magnet. A magnetically attractable second element is disclosed which is positionable adjacent the annular cover member.
