  • Publication number: 20240120656
    Abstract: A light-transmitting antenna includes a substrate, a first conductive pattern, and a second conductive pattern. The first conductive pattern has a first feeder unit, a first radiation unit, a second radiation unit, and a first connection unit. The first feeder unit and the first connection unit are connected to two sides of the first radiation unit. The first connection unit connects the first radiation unit and the second radiation unit. The second conductive pattern has a second feeder unit, a third radiation unit, a fourth radiation unit, and a second connection unit. The second feeder unit and the second connection unit are connected to two sides of the third radiation unit. The second connection unit connects the third radiation unit and the fourth radiation unit. An orthogonal projection of the second feeder unit on a first surface of the substrate at least partially overlaps the first feeder unit.

  • Patent number: 11928912
    Abstract: An automatic heating vending machine including a storage space, a storage mechanism, a fetching mechanism, a gripping arm mechanism, a rotating disc mechanism and a heating mechanism are disclosed. The storage mechanism is installed in the storage space to store food. The fetching mechanism is installed in the storage space and disposed under the storage mechanism to catch the food. The gripping arm mechanism grips the food on the fetching mechanism. The rotating disc mechanism is disposed on one side of the gripping arm mechanism. The gripping arm mechanism grips the food and then places the food on the rotating disc mechanism. The heating mechanism is disposed above the rotating disc mechanism. After the food has been placed on the rotating disc mechanism, the rotating disc mechanism undergoes horizontal movement and vertical movement, allowing the food to be admitted to the heating mechanism and heated.
