Abstract

A magnet assembly including a metal cap, a cylindrical body and a magnet. The metal cap is comprised of a concave portion at the top and a convex portion at the bottom. The convex portion may just fit into a slot formed at an upper side of the cylindrical body and be secured therein. A groove is provided at an inner side of the lower portion of the cylindrical body for receiving the magnet such that the magnet may partly project therefrom. The projecting part of the magnet may fit into the concave portion of the metal cap of another magnet assembly. By means of the configuration of the magnet assembly, a plurality of magnet assemblies may be piled up in a neat stack and stuck to a metallic board.
