Blue lateral and purity magnet structure

Claim 2

A lateral magnet assembly for use in a magnetic correction device comprising: two non-magnetic carrier rings; boss means located on and protruding from each of said carrier rings; rib means located on each of said carrier rings; and at least one lateral magnet with magnetic north and south poles mounted on each of said carriers by said boss means and said rib means.

Claim 3

A lateral magnetic assembly according to claim 1 wherein said boss means include at least one protruding boss member for each lateral magnet to be mounted and said rib means includes at least one protruding rib member for each of said boss members.

Claim 4

A lateral magnetic assembly according to claim 2 wherein said rib means includes two protruding rib members for each of said boss members whereby each magnet is mounted on a surface of each carrier ring by one boss member and two rib members.

Claim 5

A lateral magnetic assembly according to claim 3 wherein, there are at least two magnets and each of said magnets includes a flat body portion with an upper arcuate edge, a lower arcuate edge, two edge means joining together said arcuate edges for mounting on a respective rib member, each of said edge means having a respective north and south pole, and a bore through the surface of said magnet for receipt of said boss member.

Claim 6

A lateral magnet assembly according to claim 4 wherein each of said non-magnetic carrier rings has an inner circular edge having a radius of curvature substantially equal to the radius of curvature of each inner arcuate edge of said magnets.

Claim 7

A lateral magnet assembly according to claim 5 wherein said boss members are located on a common circle having as its center the center of said carrier ring and said magnets are mounted on said carrier rings such that the distance from the center to said inner circular edge iS equal to the distance from the center to the lower arcuate edges of each magnet.

Claim 8

A lateral magnet assembly according to claim 6 wherein said boss members are equally spaced apart whereby said magnets are equally spaced apart.

Claim 9

A lateral magnet assembly according to claim 7 including three lateral magnets mounted adjacently on each of said carrier rings whereby a north pole of each of said magnets lies adjacent to south pole of an adjacent lateral magnet.

Claim 10

A lateral magnet assembly for use in a magnetic correction device comprising: two non-magnetic carrier rings; a plurality of lateral magnets, each with magnetic north and south pole means, mounted on a common surface of each of said carrier rings; and means mounting said magnets adjacently on said carriers whereby a north pole of each of said magnets is adjacent a south pole of an adjacent magnet, the magnets on the respective carriers being in substantially face-to-face confronting relation.

Claim 11

A lateral magnet assembly for use in a magnetic correction device comprising: two non-magnetic carrier rings; a plurality of lateral magnets, each with magnetic north and south pole means, mounted on a common surface of each of said carrier rings; and means mounting said magnets adjacently on said carriers whereby a north pole of each of said magnets is adjacent a south pole of an adjacent magnet, the magnets on the respective carriers being in substantially face-to-face confronting relation.

Claim 12

A lateral magnet assembly according to claim 9 wherein each of said magnets includes an upper arcuate edge, a lower arcuate edge, and two end edge means joining together said arcuate edges each of said edge means having a respective north and south pole.

Claim 13

A lateral magnet for use in a magnetic correction device comprising: a thin body portion having an upper arcuate edge, a lower arcuate edge and two end edge means joining together said arcuate edges, the distance between said upper and lower arcuate edge being at least twice the thickness of said thin body portion each of said edges having a respective north and south pole: and means to mount said lateral magnet on said device.

Claim 14

A lateral magnet for use in a magnetic correction device comprising: a thin body portion having an upper arcuate edge, a lower arcuate edge and two end edge means joining together said arcuate edges, the distance between said upper and lower arcuate edge being at least twice the thickness of said thin body portion each of said edges having a respective north and south pole: and means to mount said lateral magnet on said device.

Claim 15

A magnet according to claim 11 wherein said body portion mounting means includes a bore through said end edges are straight edges.
