  • Magnetic table top game
    Patent number: 6478299
    Abstract: A device for movably coupling a gaming piece to a substantially non-magnetic surface having opposite first and second sides is disclosed. The device comprises a base which is mounted to the gaming piece, the base comprising a housing, a first and second magnet and a first support element positioned between the first and second magnets. The first support element is dimensioned and. configured to support the base on the first side of the surface. The device has a magnetic coupling positioned on the second side of the surface, said magnetic coupling comprising a spindle member having an axis of rotation and a first and second magnet, the spindle member being rotatably mounted in a carriage housing.
    Type: Grant

  • Magnetic table top game
    Patent number: 6450497
    Abstract: A magnetic table game is disclosed wherein gaming pieces are movably mounted to a substantially non-magnetic playing surface of a game by a magnetic coupling device. The coupling device comprises a base mounted to the gaming piece, the base having a housing, a first and second magnet and a first support element positioned between the first and second magnets and further positioned to support the base on the surface. The base is held on surface by a magnetic coupling positioned on the opposite side of the surface. The magnetic coupling has a housing, a first and second magnet and a second support element positioned between the first and second magnets of the magnetic coupling and further positioned to support the base on the surface. The housings and the support members of the base and magnetic coupling are configured to position the magnets of the base in close proximity to the magnets of the magnetic coupling when the base and magnetic coupling are mounted to each other on opposite sides of the surface.
