Abstract

See full text

The invention is a pallet pin which contains an integral floating magnet assembly. The floating magnet assembly is mounted within the internal cavity of the pin and is attached to a longitudinally extending member which is located within the interior space of the fanner housing. The floating magnet assembly is provided with low-friction rollers which engage the longitudinally extending member. The magnet assembly is thereby permitted to traverse freely the length of the interior of the housing of the device, permitting the permanent magnet assembly to automatically reposition itself in relation to an adjoining sheet of magnetic material, and to induce the upper sheets of a stack of magnetic materials to separate. The entire assembly is mounted within a housing having a handle, and one or more locating holes for the purpose of positioning the entire assembly in relation to a pallet on which sheets of magnetic material may be stored. The invention both restrains lateral movement of the sheets of magnetic material and provides separating forces to separate the upper sheets from the stack so that they may be manipulated for removal from the stack.
