In other embodiments, the slider is a permanent magnet and the slide is of magnetic or non-magnetic material (Figs. 1b and 3b, not shown); the slide is magnetized transversely of its length (Fig. 2c, not shown), or is magnetized such that a pole appears on a surface not concerned with the sliding action (Fig. 3d, not shown); or the channel is of U-section (Figs. 2d, and 2b, not shown). Both the slider and the slide may consist of or contain permanent magnets, e.g. in the form of strips exhibiting different magnetic polarities. |
