Patent CA-2507144-A1 (CA)
Inventor: HOWE GRANT
IPC: A47G25/40
Filed: 2005-05-11
Abstract: The invention relates to a collapsible garment hanger that can be used for suspension of a garment. The garment hanger is itself collapsible such that when not in use, the invention can be stored easily for purposes such as traveling. The body consists of two vertical supports each intersected by upper and lower horizontal supports, each projecting through vertical supports. The garment supporting arms are fixed to the vertical supports by a means that allows their projection outwardly to a position where a garment could be supported. Reinforcing arms are fixed to projection of lower horizontal support and can also swing outwardly to a position that contacts garment supporting arms at various positions. The upper horizontal support makes room for a removable material that is used for suspension of the hanger and also used when hanger is collapsed for maintenance of collapsed shape.

Title: Non-human mutant mammals deficient in sigma receptors and their applications
Inventor: ZAMANILLO CASTANEDO DANIEL
IPC: C07K14/705
Filed: 2003-12-09
Abstract: The invention relates to sigma receptor-deficient, mutant, non-human mammals and the applications thereof. The genome of the endogenous sigma receptor-deficient, mutant, non-human mammal contains a mutation comprising a disruption in a gene of an endogenous sigma receptor, whereby said gene disruption produces a mutant lacking detectable levels of endogenous sigma receptor. The aforementioned mutant can be used as a control animal for in vivo studies and as a source of cells to be used in in vitro studies. The sigma-1 receptor-deficient mutants can be used as models for the in vivo study of central nervous system disorders, memory alterations, stress conditions and drug addiction, neuroprotection and analgesic methods. The sigma-2 receptor-deficient mutants can be used to study diagnostic and therapeutic tools, in order to combat cancer and/or degenerative processes and/or to develop compounds that can prevent, reduce or alleviate the secondary pathology associated with the administration of neuroleptic agents.

Title: Method and system for discovering a mobility anchor point and managing mobility of a mobile node in a network system supporting mobile ip
Inventor: OH JAE-KWON
IPC: H04L29/06
Filed: 2004-10-18
Abstract: In a network system including at least one mobility anchor point (MAP) for managing mobility of a mobile node (MN) and a plurality of routers connected to the at least one MAP in a hierarchical structure, the MAP sends a MAP  option to at least one router located on a higher level than the MAP. When receiving the MAP option, the router located on the higher level sends an updated MAP option to neighboring routers, after incrementing a predetermined upward value comprised in the MAP option. MAPs distributed in the network system can deliver MAP options regardless of the hierarchical structure of routers, and hence the MN can maximize its location privacy. Because the MAP  performs MAP domain announcement using a DOMAIN option, service use of routers outside the MAP domain can be limited, and the number of times that a MAP is changed can be reduced.
