Abstract: An AC adapter including an AC-side plug module and a DC-side connector module coupled to each other is provided. A first voltage-reducing element and a relay are electrically coupled to an AC power supply. An AC-to-DC converter is electrically coupled to the relay. The DC-side connector module has a mechanical switch element electrically coupled to the relay and the first voltage-reducing element. When the DC-side connector module is connected to a device socket, the mechanical switch element is turned on and the relay is enabled, so that the electrical power of the AC power supply is transmitted to the AC-to-DC converter through the enabled relay. When the DC-side connector module is disconnected from the device socket, the mechanical switch element is turned off and the relay is disabled, so that the electrical power of the AC power supply is not transmitted to the AC-to-DC converter.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method of screening pigs to identify those which have a genetic predisposition to have a thinner or thicker backfat thickness by assaying the pattern of the five single nucleotide polymorphisms in the HSP70.2 gene that is associated with backfat thickness.

Abstract: The invention provides a transgenic pig having incorporated into its genome a HSP70 gene or fragment thereof, whereby the transgenic pig overexpresses HSP70. The transgenic pig of the invention can be used in the production of HSP in large quantities, as a xenograft source for transplation and as an animal model close to human for illustrating the protective roles of HSP. Furthermore, the transgenic pig of the invention has a better meat quality and exhibits an increased growth rate and a reduced backfat thickness.

Abstract: A cooling device for molds in an injection molding machine includes a rotational cooling head, which is disposed in the male mold part. The cooling head provides a plurality of color mold sets with a shaft being disposed at an end of the center of the cooling head for being passed through with cooling liquid. The cooling head is driven by a gear with a rack to rotate the color mold sets. The liquid moves along the intake pipe and passages in the center of the cooling head for controlling circulation of the cooling liquid.

Abstract: A hanger for detachable supporting a display device includes a support portion, a plurality of holding portion and a hanging portion.

Abstract: A process for electroplating and annealing thin-films of nickel-iron alloys having from 63% to 81% iron content by weight to produce pole pieces having saturation flux density (BS) in the range from 1.9 to 2.3 T (19 to 23 kG) with acceptable magnetic anisotropy and magnetostriction and a coercivity (HC) no higher than 160 A/m (2 Oe). The desired alloy layer properties, including small crystal size and minimal impurity inclusions, can be produced by including higher relative levels of Fe++ ions in the electroplating bath while holding the bath at a lower temperature while plating from a suitable seed layer. The resulting alloy layer adopts a small crystal size (BCC) without significant inclusion of impurities, which advantageously permits annealing to an acceptable HC while retaining the high BS desired.
