Claim Text:
1. A magnet array comprising: at least one pair of consecutive, parallel bar magnets, each pair comprising a parallel first and second bar magnet having a central plane between them, each bar magnet having a corresponding magnetic field having a direction perpendicular to the long axis of the bar magnet and between 30° and 60° inclined to the central plane, the direction of the magnetic field establishing a corresponding north and south poles of the bar magnet; each pair of bar magnets configured with the north pole of the first magnet being closer to the south pole of the second magnet than to the north pole of the second magnet, each pair of bar magnets having the direction of the magnetic field of the first bar magnet at an angle between 60° and 120° relative to the direction of the magnetic field of the second bar magnet; wherein the corresponding magnetic field formed on a first side of each pair between the north pole of the corresponding second magnet and the south pole of the corresponding first magnet is reinforced.
