Abstract: The hanger consists of a main crossbar (1) on which garment hangers are suspended, with hooks (2) on both ends used for hanging on a stand. Standing vertical above the crossbar is a rotating plate (10) with notches which determine the number of garment hangers which can be suspended on the crossbar. The plate is exchangeable, so that one crossbar can be used for suspending a varying number of garment hangers, as required. The rotating plate can be fixed in a lower vertical position - the basic position when all notches are engaged, and in an upper horizontal or vertical position when garment hangers are inserted or removed. The rotating plate is blocked in the lower vertical position by means of notches on theslide (5) which prevents the plate from moving and thereby the garment hangers from slipping from the crossbar in transportation.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel manner of measuring DC fields using a multi-channel MEG or MKG measuring instrument; and on the other hand, to a manner of eliminating from the measurement result the interference signals caused by the DC currents. The invention combines the monitoring system of a testee's movement and the method for motion correction of the measured signals so that the signals produced by the DC currents of a moving testee's are visible in the final measurement result as a static signal component in a conventional MEG or MKG measurement. In that case, in the measurement, it is not necessary to beforehand prepare oneself for measuring the DC fields.
