  • Patent number: 6812817
    Abstract: The invention provides a versatile magnetic holder which is capable of holding objects which are sensitive to magnetic fields, such as ferrous coins, capable of holding items comprising an enclosed loop, such as key chains, and capable of holding thin articles, such as paper currency, which can be held between two adjacent flat elements pressing against one another. The magnetic holder is also capable of securing larger objects against a ferrous portion of another object. The apparatus comprises three longitudinal flat members, each member comprising two magnets protruding from one face, linked through one another via a loop-shaped element extending through a hole positioned at an extremity of each longitudinal member. For maximum versatility, when all three longitudinal members are magnetically secured to one another, the top face of two of the longitudinal members faces in opposite direction to the front face of the third longitudinal member.
