Patent ID: 7545250

Claim:
An anchoring magnet ( 1 ) for anchoring onto one of a magnetic substrate and a magnetizable substrate, comprising: a plurality of panel-shaped magnet elements ( 13 , 14 ); a plurality of nonmagnetic protective sleeves ( 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 ), each of said protective sleeves ( 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 ) joined exclusively to and enclosing a corresponding one of said magnet elements ( 13 , 14 ); a plurality of panel-shaped pole elements ( 2 , 3 , 4 ) extending in parallel fashion; and a plurality of grooves ( 23 , 24 ) extending into said pole elements ( 2 , 3 , 4 ), said grooves ( 23 , 24 ) extending in parallel fashion, wherein said magnet elements ( 13 , 14 ) enclosed by said protective sleeves ( 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 ) are disposed within said grooves ( 23 , 24 ) so that said pole and magnet elements ( 2 , 3 , 4 , 13 , 14 ) are alternatingly arranged and extending in parallel to each other, and wherein said pole and magnet elements ( 2 , 3 , 4 , 13 , 14 ) are clamped together to form the anchoring magnet ( 1 ).
