Title: Methods for assembling a non-directional free electron generating repelling magnet combination

Description:
CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS 
     This application is a continuation of non-provisional patent application Ser. No. 17/196,040 filed in the United States Patent Office on Mar. 9, 2021, claims priority therefrom, and is expressly incorporated herein by reference in its entirety 
    
    
     TECHNICAL FIELD 
     The present disclosure relates generally to a combination of two magnets in a repelling configuration. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to a combination of two magnets bonded together in a repelling configuration which produces non-directional free electrons, and methods for the assembly thereof. 
     BACKGROUND 
     Magnets used for therapeutic purposes typically produce focused, directional electron flows leading from one pole of the magnet to the opposite pole. However, placing like poles from two separate magnets in a repelling configuration causes the magnetic fields produced by each magnet to repel each other, thus causing a large portion of the electrons to scatter as non-directional free electrons, further resulting in a substantial reduction in the magnetic power of both magnets. 
     Conventional methods for attaching two magnets together in repelling configurations often utilize high impact or heat in order to overcome magnetic repulsion, particularly when working with strong magnets. However, both impact and heat have detrimental effects by damaging and demagnetizing the magnets. Therefore, a need exists for an apparatus and method which allows two repelling magnets to be brought together and placed into contact without the magnets being forced out of position by repulsion forces or flipping over due to attractive forces, and which further allows the repelling magnets to be permanently bonded together. 
     In the present disclosure, where a document, act or item of knowledge is referred to or discussed, this reference or discussion is not an admission that the document, act or item of knowledge or any combination thereof was at the priority date, publicly available, known to the public, part of common general knowledge or otherwise constitutes prior art under the applicable statutory provisions; or is known to be relevant to an attempt to solve any problem with which the present disclosure is concerned. 
     While certain aspects of conventional technologies have been discussed to facilitate the present disclosure, no technical aspects are disclaimed and it is contemplated that the claims may encompass one or more of the conventional technical aspects discussed herein. 
     BRIEF SUMMARY 
     An aspect of an example embodiment in the present disclosure is to provide an apparatus for permanently bonding two repelling permanent magnets without using heat or impact to effect the bond therebetween. Accordingly, the present disclosure provides a repelling force countering means, first holding base, a second holding base, a first holding magnet attached to the first holding base, and a second holding magnet attached to the second holding base. A first magnet and a second magnet are placed in securing positions at the first holding base first end and the second holding base first end respectively, with the first and second magnets showing outward faces exhibiting like magnetic polarities. The first and second holding bases allow the first magnet and a second magnet to be brought into close proximity, while the first and second holding magnets produce magnetic holding forces which hold the first and second magnets in the securing positions, allowing the first and second magnets to be pressed together into a repelling configuration, whereupon the repelling force countering means overcomes a repelling force generated between the first and second magnets and prevents the separation thereof. The repelling force countering means comprises a bonding adhesive which bonds the first magnet to the second magnet. Application of the repelling force countering means is followed by the removal of the completed repelling magnet combination, by detaching the repelling magnet combination from the first and second holding magnets of the first and second holding bases. 
     It is another aspect of an example embodiment in the present disclosure to provide an apparatus which allows the first and second magnets to be permanently joined without adhesives. Accordingly, the present disclosure provides a physical interlock comprising a first interlocking portion on the first magnet, and a second interlocking portion on the second magnet. The first interlocking portion engages with the second interlocking portion and prevents the first and second magnets from separating under the repelling force. 
     It is yet another embodiment in the present disclosure, to provide an apparatus which maintains the first and second magnets in the repelling configuration and provides a protective layer. Accordingly, the repelling force countering means may further comprise a capsule with a capsule first portion and a capsule second portion. The first magnet is placed within a first magnet holding space within the capsule first portion, which is then positioned at the first holding base first end. The second magnet is placed within a second magnet holding space within the capsule second portion, which is then positioned at the second holding base first end. The capsule first and second portions are brought together and are interlocked using a capsule locking means, with the first and second magnets pressed together therebetween. The capsule may also encase and protect the repelling magnet combination from external damage or moisture exposure. 
     The present disclosure addresses at least one of the foregoing disadvantages. However, it is contemplated that the present disclosure may prove useful in addressing other problems and deficiencies in a number of technical areas. Therefore, the claims should not necessarily be construed as limited to addressing any of the particular problems or deficiencies discussed hereinabove. To the accomplishment of the above, this disclosure may be embodied in the form illustrated in the accompanying drawings. Attention is called to the fact, however, that the drawings are illustrative only. Variations are contemplated as being part of the disclosure.

     DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS 
       FIG.  1    illustrates a repelling magnet combination  11  comprising a first magnet  70  positioned in contact with a second magnet  80 . The first magnet  70  has a first magnet first face  72 A and a first magnet second face  72 B, while the second magnet  80  has a second magnet first face  82 A and a second magnet second face  82 B. The first and second magnets  70 ,  80  are held in a repelling position, with the first magnet first face  72 A in contact with the second magnet first face  82 A. 
     The first and second magnets  70 ,  80  each have a first magnetic pole  92  at the first magnet first face  72 A and second magnet first face  82 A respectively, and a second magnetic pole  94  at the first magnet second face  72 B and the second magnet second face  82 B respectively. The first and second magnets  70 ,  80  may be any form of permanent magnet, such as rare earth, alnico, ceramic, or other types of magnet. For example, the first and second magnets  70 ,  80  may be neodymium magnets. Although the first and second magnets  70 ,  80  as illustrated are substantially cylindrical or disc-shaped, this is not intended to be limiting, as the first and second magnets  70 ,  80  can be shaped as blocks or other shapes, while remaining consistent with the principles of the present disclosure. 
     The first magnetic poles  92  and second magnetic poles  94  produce magnetic fields with a first polarity and second polarity respectively. Magnetic poles having the same magnetic polarity will generate a repelling force, while magnetic poles having unlike magnetic polarities will generate an attractive force. Turning to  FIG.  3 F  while also referring to  FIG.  1   , the repelling force generated between the first magnet first face  72 A and the second magnet first face  82 A is compensated for by using a repelling force countering means  20  to overcome the repelling force and maintain the first and second magnets  70 ,  80  in contact in the repelling configuration. In one embodiment, the repelling force countering means  20  is implemented using a bonding adhesive  68  of sufficient strength to overcome the repelling force, which is applied between the first magnet first face  72 A and the second magnet first face  82 A. In a preferred embodiment, the first and second magnets  70 ,  80  are substantially disc shaped, with the first and second magnets  70 ,  80  being substantially equal in diameter. 
     Turning to  FIG.  3 A-B , while also referring to  FIGS.  3 E-F , the repelling magnet combination  11  is assembled using a holding assembly  21  comprising a first holding base  12 , a second holding base  22 , a first holding magnet  30 , and a second holding magnet  40 . The function of the holding assembly  21  is to secure the first and second magnets  70 ,  80  in securing positions at the first holding base first end  12 A and the second holding base first end  22 A, and resist the repelling force generated therebetween as the first and second magnets  70 ,  80  are brought into contact in order to allow the repelling countering means  20  to be applied. 
     In one embodiment, the first holding base  12  has a first holding base first end  12 A, to which the first holding magnet  30  is attached. Likewise, the second holding base  22  has a second holding base first end  22 A, to which the second holding magnet  40  is attached. The first holding base  12  may have a first holding base first face  12 F positioned at the first holding base first end  12 A, while the second holding base  22  may have a second holding base first face  22 F positioned at the second holding base first end  22 A. In the present example, the first and second holding bases  12 ,  22  are cylindrical in shape. However, this is not intended to be limiting, and the first and second holding bases  12 ,  22  may be formed as blocks, plates, or in other shapes while adhering to the principles of the present disclosure. 
     Referring to  FIGS.  3 A-D , the first holding magnet  30  has a first holding magnet first face  36 A exhibiting a first magnetic pole  92 , and a first holding magnet second face  36 B which exhibits a second magnetic pole  94  and is disposed opposite the first holding magnet first face  36 A. The first holding magnet  30  is attached to the first holding base  12 , by positioning the first holding magnet second face  36 B in contact with the first holding base first end  12 A. Similarly, the second holding magnet  80  has a second holding magnet first face  46 A exhibiting a first magnetic pole  92 , and second magnet second face  46 B exhibiting a second magnetic pole  94  which is disposed opposite the second magnet first face  46 A. The second holding magnet  40  is attached to the second holding base  22 , by positioning the second holding magnet second face  46 B in contact with the second holding base first end  22 A. In one embodiment, the first and second holding magnets  30 ,  40  are substantially disc shaped, and may have a diameter which is approximately equal to the diameter of the first and second magnets  70 ,  80 . 
     Referring to  FIGS.  3 C-D , the first magnet  70  and second magnet  80  are magnetically attached to the first holding magnet  30  and second holding magnet  40  respectively. In one embodiment, the securing positions correspond to the first holding magnet first face  36 A and the second holding magnet first face  46 A, and the first magnet second face  72 B is attached to the first holding magnet first face  36 A, while the second magnet second face  82 B is attached to the second magnet second face  82 B. The first magnetic poles  92  of the first and second holding magnet first faces  36 A,  46 A and the second magnetic poles  94  of the first and second magnet second faces  72 B,  82 B generate magnetic holding forces which secure the first magnet  70  to the first holding magnet  30  and the second magnet  80  to the second holding magnet  40 . 
     Referring to  FIG.  3 E-F , the first and second magnets  70 ,  80  are brought together using the first and second holding bases  12 ,  22  by bringing the first holding base first end  12 A towards the second holding base first end  22 A, allowing the first magnet first face  72 A to approach the second magnet first face  82 A. The first and second holding bases  12 ,  22  may be manipulated manually by hand, or by mechanical means. For example, in certain embodiments, the first and second holding bases  12 ,  22  may be attached to a mechanical apparatus capable of bringing together, separating, or rotating the first and second holding bases  12 ,  22 . 
     The magnetic holding forces generated by the first and second holding magnets  30 ,  40  hold the first and second magnets  70 ,  80  in place as the first and second magnets  70 ,  80  are brought together into contact, thereby counteracting the repelling force generated between the first and second magnet first faces  72 A,  82 A. In one embodiment, the bonding adhesive  68  which forms the repelling force countering means is applied to either the first magnet first face  72 A or the second magnet first face  82 A prior to the first and second magnets  70 ,  80  being placed together in contact in the repelling configuration. The first and second magnets  70 ,  80  continue to be pressed together between the first and second holding base first ends  12 A,  22 A until the bonding adhesive  68  cures sufficiently to overcome the repelling force. Once the bonding adhesive  68  has cured, the first and second magnets  70 ,  80  are detached from the first and second holding magnets  30 ,  40 , thus completing the repelling magnet combination  11 . 
     Referring to  FIG.  2   , the repelling magnet combination  11  may further comprise a protective shell  48  which covers the first and second magnets  70 ,  80 . For example, the protective shell  48  may be a rubber or plastic encapsulation which shields the first and second magnets from exposure to moisture which may cause corrosion of the first and second magnets  70 ,  80 . 
     Turning to  FIGS.  4 G-H , an alternate repelling force countering means  20  is shown in another embodiment. The repelling force countering means  20  may be implemented as a capsule  50  comprising a capsule first portion  52  attached to a capsule second portion  62 . The first and second magnets  70 ,  80  are positioned between the capsule first portion  52  and the capsule second portion  62 , and the repelling force is countered by locking the capsule first and second portions  52 ,  62  together using a capsule locking means, thus maintaining the first and second magnets  70 ,  80  in the repelling configuration. The capsule  50  is formed from a non-magnetic material, such as plastic or other suitable material, and may also serve to protect the first and second magnets  70 ,  80  from external damage and corrosion due to exposure to moisture. 
     Turning to  FIGS.  4 C-D  while continuing to refer to  FIG.  4 H , in one embodiment, the capsule first and second portions  52 , are each substantially disc shaped, and the capsule  50  is substantially cylindrical. The capsule first portion  52  has a first capsule outer face  53 B, and a first capsule second face  53 A disposed opposite thereof, while the capsule second portion  62  has a second capsule outer face  63 B and a second capsule first face  63 A disposed opposite thereof. The capsule first portion  52  has a first interlocking portion  56  which projects away from the first capsule inner face  53 A, while the capsule second portion  62  has a second interlocking portion  66  which projects away from the second capsule inner face  63 A. The first interlocking portion  56  is adapted to threadably interlock with the second interlocking portion  66 , to secure the capsule first portion  52  to the capsule second portion  62 . 
     The capsule first portion  52  has a first magnet holding space  54  which is adapted to receive the first magnet  70 . The first magnet holding space  54  may be implemented as a recess which opens away from the first capsule inner face  53 A. In one embodiment, the first interlocking portion  56  forms a series of inwardly facing screw threads disposed within the first magnet holding space  54 . 
     The capsule second portion  62  has a second magnet holding space  64  which is adapted to receive the second magnet  80 . The second magnet holding space  64  may be implemented as a recess which opens away from the second capsule inner face  63 A. In one embodiment, the second interlocking portion  66  forms a hollow cylindrical projection positioned centrally upon the second capsule inner face  63 A, while the second magnet holding space  64  is positioned centrally within the second interlocking portion  66 . 
     Referring to  FIGS.  4 E-F  and  FIG.  4 G-H , in the illustrated embodiment, the securing positions correspond to the first and second magnet holding spaces  54 ,  64 , and the first magnet  70  is placed within the first magnet holding space  54  with the first magnet first face  72 A oriented outwardly away from the first capsule inner face  53 A, while the second magnet  80  is placed within the second magnet holding space  64  with the second magnet first face  82 A oriented outwardly away from the second capsule inner face  63 A. The capsule first and second portions  52 ,  62  are brought together, and the second interlocking portion  66  engages with the first interlocking portion  56 , thus locking the capsule first portion  52  together with the capsule second portion  62 . The first and second magnet holding spaces  54 ,  64  are aligned, and the first and second magnets  70 ,  80  are pressed together with the first magnet first face  72 A in contact with the second magnet first face  82 A. The first and second interlocking portions  56 ,  66 , forming the capsule locking means, counteract the repelling force and prevent the capsule first and second portions  52 ,  62  from separating, while also maintaining the first and second magnets in the repelling configuration. 
     Turning to  FIGS.  4 A-B  and  FIGS.  4 C-D , the first and second holding bases  12 ,  22  may include further features to accept the capsule first and second portions  52 ,  62 . The first holding base  12  may have a first holding magnet recess  14  disposed centrally upon the first holding base first face  12 F which is adapted to receive the first holding magnet  30 . Similarly, the second holding base  22  may have a second magnet recess  24  disposed centrally upon the second holding base first face  22 F, which is adapted to receive the second holding magnet  40 . The first and second holding magnets  30 ,  40  are placed within the first and second magnet recesses  14 ,  24  respectively with the first and second holding magnet first faces  36 A,  46 A oriented outwardly. The first and second holding magnets  30 ,  40  may be affixed within the first and second magnet holding recesses  14 ,  24  using bonding adhesive  68  or other means. The first and second magnet recesses  14 ,  24  may be sufficiently deep to allow the first holding magnet first face  36 A and the second holding magnet first face  46 A to be flush with the first holding base first face  12 F and the second holding base first face  22 F respectively. 
     Referring to  FIGS.  4 C-D  along with  FIGS.  4 E-F  and  FIG.  4 H , the capsule first portion  52  is attached to the first holding base first end  12 , while the capsule second portion  62  is attached to the second holding base first end  22 . The first capsule outer face  53 B and the second capsule outer face  63 B contact the first holding base first face  12 F and the second holding base first face  22 F respectively. The magnetic holding forces produced between the first holding magnet  30  and the first magnet  70  within the first magnet holding space, and between the second holding magnet  40  and the second magnet  80  within the second magnet holding space  64 , pass through the capsule first portion  52  and the capsule second portion  62  respectively to magnetically hold the first and second magnets  70 ,  80  as well as the first and second capsule portions  52 ,  62  in place against the first holding base first face  12 F and the second holding base first face  22 F respectively. 
     The magnetic holding forces further counteract the repelling force generated between the first and second magnets  70 ,  80  as the first holding base first end  12 A and the second holding base first end  22 A are brought together, allowing the first interlocking portion  56  to be aligned with and engage with the second interlocking portion  66 . The first magnet  70  or the second magnet  80  may then be rotated by turning the first holding base  12  or the second holding base  22 , allowing the capsule locking means to lock the capsule first and second portions  52 ,  62  together. The combined capsule  50  is then detached from the first and second holding bases  12 ,  22  to complete the repelling magnet combination. 
     Returning to  FIGS.  4 C-D  while also referring to  FIG.  4 H , in one embodiment, the first holding base  12  may further have a first retaining lip  18  projecting away from the first holding base first face  12 F, while the second holding base  22  may further have a second retaining lip  28  projecting away from the second holding base first face  22 F. When the capsule first portion  52  is in contact against the first holding base first face  12 F and the capsule second portion  62  is in contact against the second holding base second face  22 F, the first retaining lip  18  extends past the first capsule outer face  53 B to contact the capsule first portion outer surface  52 S while the second retaining lip extends past the second capsule outer face  63 B to contact the capsule second portion outer surface  62 S. The first and second retaining lips  18 ,  28  therefore serve to keep the capsule first portion  52  and the capsule second portion  62  centered in relation to the first holding base first end  12 A and the second holding base second end  22 A, thus resisting any potential lateral movement which may result from the repelling force generated between the first and second magnets  70 ,  80  as the first and second magnets  70 ,  80  are brought together in close proximity. 
     Note that in certain embodiments, the first and second threaded interlocking portions  56 ,  66  may be replaced with alternative capsule locking means which maintains the integrity of the capsule  50  and resists the repelling force generated between the first and second magnets  70 ,  80 , as will be apparent to a person of ordinary skill in the art in the field of the invention. For example, the capsule first and second portions  52 ,  62  may be adhered together using an adhesive. In another example, the capsule locking means may be an interference fit configured between the capsule first and second portions  52 ,  62 . 
     Turning now to  FIGS.  5 A-B  and  5 C, in another embodiment, the repelling force countering means  20  is implemented as a physical interlock between the first and second magnets  70 ,  80 , which overcomes the repelling force and maintains the first magnet first face  72 A in contact with the second magnet first face  82 A. In this embodiment, the first magnet  70  has a first magnet recess  74  disposed on the first magnet first face  72 A, while the second magnet  80  has a second magnet protrusion  84  which extends away from the second magnet first face  82 A. In a preferred embodiment, the first magnet recess  74  and the second magnet protrusion  84  are threaded and are adapted to form a threaded engagement. The second magnet protrusion  84  engages with the first magnet recess  74  and counters the repelling force by locking the first and second magnets  70 ,  80  together, allowing the first magnet first face  72 A to remain in contact with the second magnet first face  82 A. 
     Turning to  FIG.  5 D  while also referring to  FIGS.  3 A-B  and  FIG.  5 B , the first and second magnets  70 ,  80  are brought into contact with the aid of the first and second holding bases  12 ,  22 . The first magnet second face  72 B is magnetically attached to the first holding magnet first face  36 A, while the second magnet second face  82 A is magnetically attached to the second holding magnet first face  46 A. The magnetic holding forces maintain the first and second magnets in place against the first holding base first face  12 F and the second holding base first face  22 F and counteract the repelling force as the first and second magnets are brought together. The second magnet protrusion  84  is aligned with and engages the first magnet recess  74 . The first or the second magnet  70 ,  80  is turned by rotating either the first or the second holding base  12 ,  22 , thus causing the first magnet recess  74  and the second magnet threaded protrusion to interlock in the repelling configuration. The interlocked first and second magnets  70 ,  80  are then detached from the first holding base first face  72 A and the second holding base second first face  82 A to complete the repelling magnet combination.

These terms are only used to distinguish one element, component, region, layer or section from another element, component, region, layer or section. Thus, “a first element,” “component,” “region,” “layer” or “section” discussed below could be termed a second element, component, region, layer or section without departing from the teachings herein. 
     Spatially relative terms, such as “beneath,” “below,” “lower,” “above,” “upper” and the like, are used herein for ease of description to describe one element or feature&#39;s relationship to another element(s) or feature(s) as illustrated in the figures. It is understood that the spatially relative terms are intended to encompass different orientations of the device in use or operation in addition to the orientation depicted in the figures. For example, if the device in the figures is turned over, elements described as “below” or “beneath” other elements or features would then be oriented “above” the other elements or features. Thus, the example term “below” can encompass both an orientation of above and below. The device can be otherwise oriented (rotated 90 degrees or at other orientations) and the spatially relative descriptors used herein interpreted accordingly. 
     Example embodiments are described herein with reference to cross section illustrations that are schematic illustrations of idealized embodiments. As such, variations from the shapes of the illustrations as a result, for example, of manufacturing techniques and/or tolerances, are to be expected. Thus, example embodiments described herein should not be construed as limited to the particular shapes of regions as illustrated herein, but are to include deviations in shapes that result, for example, from manufacturing. For example, a region illustrated or described as flat may, typically, have rough and/or nonlinear features. Moreover, sharp angles that are illustrated may be rounded. Thus, the regions illustrated in the figures are schematic in nature and their shapes are not intended to illustrate the precise shape of a region and are not intended to limit the scope of the present claims. 
     In conclusion, herein are presented an apparatus and methods for assembling a repelling magnetic combination. The disclosure is illustrated by example in the drawing figures, and throughout the written description. It should be understood that numerous variations are possible, while adhering to the inventive concept. Such variations are contemplated as being a part of the present disclosure.
