  • Patent number: 11974576
    Abstract: A gas-powered oven includes a cooking surface and a heat deflecting frame, such that the cooking surface and heat deflecting frame collectively define at least a portion of a cooking chamber. An outer housing extends around the cooking surface and the heat deflecting frame, with the outer housing having an opening formed therein and in communication with the cooking chamber. A first burner is connectable to a gas source and is located within the outer housing and spaced from the cooking chamber. The first burner is elongate and includes a first array of openings formed therein. A second burner is connectable to the gas source and extends into the cooking chamber toward a portion of the heat deflecting frame. The second burner includes a tapered passageway and an expanding passageway downstream of the tapered passageway to achieve desired flow characteristics of the gas flowing through the second burner.

  • Patent number: 11943294
    Abstract: An object compression system of a storage service may provide a user-friendly and cost-efficient solution to manage stored objects for users of the storage service. The object compression system may automatically monitor individual objects in an object-based storage system of the storage service. Based on one or more characteristics and additional features of the objects, the object compression system may generate respective determinations whether to compress the individual objects. Responsive to determinations to compress the objects, the object compression system may determine compression algorithms for individual objects. The object compression system may compress the objects according to respective compression algorithms to create compressed files. The object compression system may store the compressed files in a tier different from the objects and delete the objects from the storage service.
