Superior usability is provided and the degree of freedom in terms of use is enhanced.

A plurality of link members A1 and A2 include at least one of linear edges A12 and A22 at the peripheral edge of a facing surface A10 or A20 that faces in a folded state. At least one of the adjacent link members A1 and A2 is a magnet, and the other is a material attracted by the magnet. A link body A is formed of the link members A1 and A2 that are linked by the attracting force due to the magnetic force of the link members A1 and A2, of which the linear edges A12 and A22 are aligned.

A marker board system having a dark colored, low hardness, low surface energy solid silicone sheet to wet to a vertically oriented high surface energy substrate on a smooth, flat back-side of the solid silicone sheet. A front-side of the solid silicone sheet is able to be written upon by brightly colored marker ink. The brightly colored marker ink is able to be easily erased from the front-side of the solid silicone sheet after being written upon the front-side of the solid silicone sheet. The front-side is roughened to diminish beading of the brightly colored marker ink when written on the front-side.

A drawing device with a rotatable display screen is provided, having a housing having a cavity therein and a display screen sealingly rotatably coupled to the housing. An inner surface of the display screen forms an enclosure with the cavity. A powder is contained within the enclosure, the powder being removably adherent to the inner surface of the display screen. A first stylus controller is supported on an exterior of the housing. At least one positioning structure is supported in the enclosure and coupled to the first stylus controller to move a first stylus in a first set of directions that are parallel to a first axis. The first stylus removes the powder from the inner surface of the display screen through contact with the inner surface of the display screen.

A magnetic pen can be used in drawing arbitrary characters, figures, and symbols on a magnetic panel for a display by applying a magnetic field. The magnetic pen includes a body that includes an end portion. A holder made of a magnetic material is attached to the end portion and an internal space is formed in the holder. The holder includes a bottom portion formed with an opening and a side portion connected to the bottom portion. A magnet is arranged in the internal space of the holder. The magnet is received in a space formed by the bottom portion and the side portion.

A cylindrical winding tool 3 has three elongated members 5 obtained by splitting a cylindrical member in its axial direction into multiple pieces. The elongated members are interconnected in a hinged state in a circumferential direction by the magnet sheet. When the elongated members 5 are to be used, the elongated members 5 are placed in a spread state and arranged on the magnetically-attached object 4. When the elongated members 5 are not used, the elongated members 5 are gathered together in the circumferential direction, abutment sections 5b of the end faces of the adjacent elongated members are brought into abutment on each other and thus the cylindrical winding tool 3 having a required diameter can be formed.

The preferred embodiment of the present invention comprises a stackable and modularly reconfigurable device and system providing a surface for marking and displaying items. More specifically, embodiments of the invention relate to a modularly reconfigurable device and system having erasable writing surfaces with interconnection features.

A magnetic information sharing system includes a magnetic writable system having a writable outer surface, and a plurality of writable layers having magnetic receptive properties, wherein the plurality of writable layers are overlaid on the magnetic writable system and are held thereon via magnetic force, and wherein each of the plurality of writable layers has a writable outer surface. A method of displaying information includes the steps of placing a magnetic writable system on a flat surface, recording information on a writable outer surface of the magnetic writable system, overlaying at least one writable layer onto the magnetic writable system, the writable layer comprising material having magnetic receptive properties, and recording information on the writable layer.

A writing board system includes a writing device and a board having a powder coating substrate and a thermosetting powder coating resin applied to the powder coating substrate. A method includes preparing the powder coating substrate and spraying the thermosetting powder coating resin applied to the powder coating substrate.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, there is provided a magnet screen device, comprising a casing having an opening, a roll rotatably placed in the casing, and a magnet screen, the magnet screen being configured to be wound on the roll during a storage of the magnet screen and configured to be pulled out from the opening of the casing and to be attached to an installation surface upon an use of the magnet screen, wherein the magnet screen device further comprises a bar part at a region where the opening is provided, and wherein the bar part is configured to be capable of contacting the magnet screen at the region where the opening is provided.

A new design for a dry-erase board allows for writing on a clear top surface or a second surface under the clear top surface. The dry-erase board includes an insert positioned between the clear top surface and a second surface, the insert being protected by the clear top surface.
