Abstract: The power saving uninterruptible power supply (UPS) has a first and second switches, an energy spared switch, a transformer, an automatic voltage regulator (AVR), a charger-and-inverter, a normal mode determination unit and an electric switch. When the utility power is stable, the first and second switches are connected together to supply the utility power to a load. At the time, the energy spared switch is physically disconnected with the utility power and the transformer and the AVR. Therefore, the transformer and AVR do not consume more energy of the utility power and the transforming efficiency of the UPS is increased.

Abstract: A backlight module includes a rear plate, at least one light source disposed on the rear plate, at least two support elements respectively disposed on two opposite sides of the rear plate, and at least one optical film disposed above the light source. The optical film includes at least two fixing holes respectively corresponding to the support elements. The support elements respectively engage with the fixing holes to tension the optical film with at least one pair of tensile forces oriented in opposite directions.

Abstract: The power saving uninterruptible power supply (UPS) has a transformer, an automatic voltage regulator (AVR), a charger-and-inverter, a normal mode determination unit and an electric switch. The transformer has a primary side and a secondary side. The primary side is coupled to an alternating current (AC) power source. An AC input terminal of the AVR is coupled to the secondary side of the transformer to acquire an inducted AC power source to regulate the inducted AC power source to output to a load. The charger-and-inverter is coupled to the secondary side of the transformer to acquire a recharged power source to convert to a recharged current. The normal mode determination unit is coupled to the AC power source and the battery to detect a power supply status of the AC power source and battery capacity, so as to further determine whether current operation is normal.

Abstract: A fixing mechanism for use in a peripheral storage device having a cover and a core, includes a first hook slip element on the cover and a second hook slip element on the core. The first hook slip element is formed with a bending part and an extension part. The second hook slip element is formed with a first step part on which the bending part rests and a hook slip part for the extension part to pass therethrough to be engaged with the hook slip part, such that the cover and the core are hooked together in a way that movement of the cover in both vertical and horizontal directions is restricted with respect to the core.

Abstract: An adjusting mechanism for an optical pickup head has a cam-shaped adjusting base used to optimally adjust the inclination of optical pickup head. The cam-shaped adjusting base is formed by plastics injection molding in a manner so as to be directly connected to the chassis, which simplifies the assembly process and reduces the production cost.

Abstract: A method of operating a batch sequential machine in a manufacturing plant to optimize processing of lots of work through a plurality of series of processing stations which perform various functions comprising the following steps. Collect interval-times (I.sub.i,j) for processing of lots through individual processing stations. Form a matrix of reduced times for processing lots through the processing stations. Determine permutations of the reduced times for a series of combinations of the processing stations for performing required processing tasks. Select the combination of interval-times providing the maximum reduction of total processing time.
