  • Publication number: 20080011929
    Abstract: The ‘chair and sofa floor mount’ is a rigid, angular ‘M’ shaped tool or device. It is made out of a durable material in a manner that will more than support the weight of any typical sofa or recliner. The centre of the ‘M’ is the seat for the ‘chair’ support, approximating 90 degrees at the seat corner. The angles of the supporting sides of this seat define the approximate universal point of equilibrium on which the ‘chair’ will rest. These angles are 50 degrees and 40 degrees measured from vertical, with en estimated tolerance of 2 degrees on either side. The length of these slopes is important to support the ‘chairs’ adequately. These are 5 and 6 inches long. At these lengths the ‘mount’ will support all low backed chairs with a clearance of around 7 inches from the floor to the body of the chair. The general size of the ‘mount’ can vary to suit the material, application or height required, but the angles of the center of the seat should remain constant relative to the floor surface.

  • Patent number: 6737413
    Abstract: This invention relates to an isolated DNA molecule encoding a Sox-9 gene which codes for the Sox-9 polypeptide. The human SOX-9 gene has been mapped to chromosome 17 in the same region as CMPD-1, the locus for Campomelic Dysplasia (CD). Sox-9 appears to have a role in mammalian skeletal development, and is used in the treatment of diseases involving bone or cartilage deficiency.
