1. A magnetic closure with mutual interlock for knapsack, luggage and clothing items, comprising:
- a female element;
a male element;
said female and male elements being adapted for connection to flaps of said items;
magnetic means for mutual coupling of said female and male elements;
accommodation regions provided at said female and, respectively, male elements for accommodating said magnetic means;
guiding means provided at said female element for guidingly receiving said male element; and
mechanical engagement means for providing mutual engagement between said female and male elements so as to contrast sliding movement of said male element with respect to said female element, said guiding means allowing a mutual sliding of the female and male elements, with a subsequent auto-centering of said magnetic means, said mutual sliding starting from a position wherein the axes of the female and male element are offset and ending in a position wherein said axes come to be coincident.
