Magnetic lewiton

levitator with magnets

Levitron magnetic is a great toy invented in USA by Roy Harrigan. It is a relatively simple device, composed of a small base, a plastic disc and a special magnetic top and a ceramic casing. Due to the specially arranged strong magnets in the base, the top rises up, creating a force generated by magnets with the same polarity. Magnetic levitrons now can come in different shapes. They have found their use in displaying products in store displays as well as ornaments and decorations like toys, pots, or globes.
