Patent attributes
A magnetically positioned dryer vent coupling is adapted for use in combination with a clothes dryer. The dryer vent coupling includes a flexible exhaust duct, a first mounting substrate, and a second mounting substrate. The first mounting substrate is located at one end of the flexible exhaust duct and includes a first magnet. The second mounting substrate is adapted for residing proximate one of the dryer exhaust port and wall port, and includes a second magnet. When moved into close proximity, the first and second magnets magnetically attract to one another to self-align and self-assemble the first and second mounting substrates of the dryer vent coupling, such that the first and second mounting substrates create an audible snapping sound when engaged thereby indicating a close magnetic seal at the dryer vent coupling.
