A closure device includes a first closure part which includes a base body and at least one closure element rotatably arranged on the base body about an axis of rotation. The at least one closure element includes a base body and at least one first locking portion arranged on the base body, and at least one second closure part which includes a base element and at least one second locking portion arranged on the base element. The first closure part and the at least one second closure part can be placed against each other along a placement direction.

An apparatus, system, and method of using the apparatus and system may generally include a strap or retention device. A first end of a fastener is operatively coupled to the strap that is configured to retain a cargo contactingly adjacent a cargo support surface. A second end of the fastener is operatively coupled to the first end. The second end has an inner surface and an opposing, outer surface. The inner surface provides a recess feature configured to receive a magnet that is configured to support the second end adjacent a side of the cargo support surface. The inner surface provides a recess feature configured to receive a magnet that is configured to support the second end adjacent a side of the cargo support surface, wherein the side does not produce its own magnetic field.

A split type hanging buckle includes a base and a connecting element, the base includes a top cover and a bottom cover, the top cover has a receiving groove, one end of the bottom cover has an accommodating groove, the accommodating groove corresponds to the receiving groove, the connecting element includes a first magnetic element, a second magnetic element, a connecting part and a fitting part, the first magnetic element is received in the accommodating groove, one end of the connecting part has an inserting part and a clamping part, one end of the inserting part has an receiving cavity, the second magnetic element is received in the receiving cavity, and after the second magnetic element is received in the receiving cavity, portions of the second magnetic element away from the inserting part attract the first magnet element, such that the connecting element is connected with the base.

An improved quick-release connector that may be used with a pet collar. The connector is fabricated entirely of metal and operates using one magnet. The connector is easily modified to break apart under different pull forces.

A holding assembly comprises a first button shaped portion having a first contact portion comprising a ferromagnetic plate. A magnetic core is embedded in the first contact portion. A magnetic shield is disposed on the first contact portion to direct magnetic flux from the magnetic core towards the first contact portion. A second button shaped portion has a second contact portion comprising a ferromagnetic plate. A magnetic shield is disposed on the second contact portion to direct magnetic flux from the magnetic core towards the second contact portion. The second button shaped portion is positionable on a non-magnetic sheet with the second contact portion opposing the first contact portion to clamp to the non-magnetic sheet where the magnetic flux is substantially contained within the holding assembly.

A fastener for removably securing sheeting to a support surface, such as an HVAC system or other device. The fastener includes a base, a rare-earth magnet to removably couple the base to the support surface, the rare-earth magnet having an epoxy coating and being capable of securing the base to a pre-selected location on the support surface, and a locking member pivotably coupled to the base and adjustable between a selectable first position and a second position, and wherein the locking member remains in the selected position unless acted upon by a user.

A patient interface assembly includes a frame with a central aperture by which a flow of pressurized breathable gas is introduced in use. The frame includes a wall on a central portion of the frame that surrounds the central aperture. A cushion is removably secured to the frame at the wall surrounding the central aperture and is made of a material that is relatively softer than the frame. A headgear assembly includes a pair of strap portions constructed of a flexible fabric material. A pair of yoke portions is positioned between the strap portions and the frame. Each yoke portion has a proximal end adjacent the frame and a distal end having a connector slot that connects to the respective strap portion of the headgear assembly. The yoke portions have a multilayer construction with one layer being a fabric layer. The yoke portions have a degree of flexibility in one direction and are more resistant to bending in another direction generally orthogonal to the one direction to resist vertical rotation of the patient interface assembly.

A magnetic sealing closure, comprising: a. a first flexible strip, with a plurality of cavities adapted to incorporate a plurality of magnetic elements; b. a second flexible strip, with a plurality of cavities adapted to incorporate a plurality of magnetic elements; wherein said sealing closure comprises membranes connectable to said first strip, and a second membrane connectable to said second strip, such that said plurality of magnetic elements of said second strip are embedded within said plurality of cavities between said second strip and said second membrane; when said first and second strips and are brought together from the side of said first and second membranes, magnetic elements of said first and said second strips magnetically attract each other, such that a sealing is provided.

A magnetic buckling assembly includes a male buckling component, a female buckling component, a first locking portion, a second locking portion, an operating component, a first magnetic component, a second magnetic component and a clearance structure. The first magnetic component magnetically attracts the second magnetic component for preventing separation of the male buckling component and the female buckling component or magnetically repulses the second magnetic component for promoting the separation of the male buckling component and the female buckling component when the operating component is operated to disengage the first locking portion from the second locking portion for allowing the separation of the male buckling component and the female buckling component. The clearance structure allows the second locking portion to slide an offsetting position for preventing the separation of the male buckling component and the female buckling component after engagement of the first locking portion and the second locking portion.
