  • Publication number: 20250231600
    Abstract: A memory expansion device is provided and includes a shell and a memory expansion component. A contact surface, a heat dissipation surface and a heat conduction port are disposed on the shell. An accommodating cavity is arranged inside the shell. The heat conduction port penetrates through the contact surface and the heat dissipation surface and is separated from the accommodating cavity. The memory expansion component is arranged within the accommodating cavity. When the contact surface of the shell is in contact with an outer surface of the computer host, some heat dissipation holes on the bottom of the computer host correspondingly communicate with the heat conduction port on the shell, so that heat on the computer host can be dissipated to a side where the heat dissipation surface is located through the heat conduction port.

  • Patent number: 11939440
    Abstract: An alcohol soluble protein gas-liquid interface self-assembled porous membrane and a preparation method thereof are provided. The alcohol soluble protein gas-liquid interface self-assembled porous membrane is prepared from an alcohol soluble protein membrane storage solution by an anti-solvent method. The porous interface membrane is rapidly prepared by an alcohol soluble protein interface self-assembled one-step method and can be rapidly formed within 4 seconds, which greatly improves the preparation efficiency of the alcohol soluble protein membrane. The structure (size, pore diameter, micro porosity) of the alcohol soluble protein interface self-assembled porous membrane is precisely regulated and controlled by regulating and controlling process parameters, and a new preparation solution of an alcohol soluble protein base membrane, which is more efficient and has a modifiable structure compared with an alcohol soluble protein membrane prepared by a traditional solvent evaporation method, is developed.
