Abstract:
A magnetic sheet fanner comprising:(a) an elongated horseshoe magnet having a north pole, a south pole, an upper end, and a lower end, the north and south poles of the elongated horseshoe magnet extending from the upper end to the lower end; (b) a magnet support frame defining an interior space and having a sheet contact side; (c) pivotal mounting means interlinking the elongated horseshoe magnet and the support frame so that the elongated horseshoe magnet may pivotally move between a first position and a second position within the interior space, the elongated horseshoe magnet directing a magnetic field through the sheet contact side of the support frame while the elongated horseshoe magnet is in its first position, the elongated horseshoe magnet directing the magnetic field away from the sheet contact side upon pivotal motion to its second position; and, (d) turning means adapted for selectively pivoting the elongated horseshoe magnet between its first and second positions.
