Magnet force shield

Important details in drawings are some times  easy to over look.

Hi Floor,

You indicated in the above two drawings as if the inner magnet consisted of two magnets fixed to each other by their like pole endings to get a quasi twice as long block magnet with respect to that of the two side magnets.  But I do not think you meant that: the inner magnet i.e. the shield can be made from a single magnet I think that has a correct length with the same poles arrangement.  Am I correct ?     

Thanks for showing these ideas and test videos!

Hi Gyula

Thanks for your question.

I some times do not communicate as well as I at first think I have. 
Or some times, I am simply wrong about some thing I have stated.

It is very good for the projects when some one asks such questions
and directly / politely points out such errors.

Thanks again.

                     This has performed very well.
In my preliminary tests of the particular interactions you speak of, I have used
two magnets clamped together (edge to edge, in repulsion).

Okay, you are welcome and thanks also. Your ideas are simple yet surely powerful.

Floor, I'm missing something. What I see is easy movements but what I don't see is for
magnets to do work they must be switched on/off so that they can either attract or
push apart.
So to do useful work lets say two magnets can push apart after "being neutralized" by some method and then pushed together into a close position and then they must be "turned back on" so they will push away.

I know your topic is shielding. Is that all you are trying to do here?
Maybe I have looked into this too far.
