Naturally, the strength of the magnetic force of the magnet (4) itself built in the magnet holders (5A) and (5B) also affects the magnitude of the magnetic force on the top mandrel. In this way, by adjusting the thickness of the separators (9) and (10) and adjusting the magnitude of the magnetic force of the magnet (4) itself, the top weight is set to be minimum, and the top rotation duration is set. Can be greatly increased.

  The magnet holder (5A) provided on the top support (6A) and the magnet (4) in (5B) may be provided with magnetic poles in the direction attracted to the respective magnetic poles, and the top mandrel itself may be provided as a magnet. Good. The top and bottom ends (2) and (3) of the top mandrel (1A) and the separator plate (9) and the separator plate (10) are lightly contacted so as not to prevent the top from rotating freely. , May be slightly isolated and held at a distance of attachment or separation.

  A mooring ring (11) that prevents the top mandrel from being detached is fixedly provided on the lower part of the upper magnet holder (5A) and the upper part of the lower magnet holder (5B). When turning the top, the top can be rotated by placing a finger on the front of the top and shaking the finger to either the left or right. By effectively applying not only the pattern of the rotation direction section but also the pattern of the vertical direction and the diagonal direction to the coloring of the top body's color pattern, color mixture and color of the top part, especially during the second half rotation You can enjoy the fun of changing the pattern.

  The top support (6A) is provided with magnet holders (5A) and (5B) at the top and bottom, and mooring rings (11) are provided on the magnet holders to prevent the top from falling over. In addition to being able to shape this top support and decorate it with a colored pattern, it can be used as an amusement and ornamental figurine that can be enjoyed both when turning the top and when the top stops rotating. Can be used. 5 and 6 show an embodiment in which a top and bottom support is freely shaped and decorated.
