  • Publication number: 20240313519
    Abstract: The present application discloses a wire connection protection device of a cooking appliance and an air fryer. The wire connection protection device includes a rigid insulating sleeve sleeved over the connection between the internal wire and power wire of the cooking appliance, with both ends of the rigid insulating sleeve being sleeved over the outside of the outer sheath of the internal wire and the power wire, and a fire sleeve sleeved outside the rigid insulating sleeve. The rigid insulating sleeve improves the structural stability of the connection between the internal wire and the power wire such that it does not loosen easily. The fire sleeve prevents the connection from heating up and catching fire. The rigid insulating sleeve and the fire sleeve collectively insulate the heat source from the inside to prevent the fire from spreading, so as to improve the safety at the wire connection.

  • Patent number: 12072396
    Abstract: A solidly mounted resonator (SMR)-based magnetoelectric (ME) antenna comprises a substrate, a Bragg reflector disposed on the substrate, a magnetostrictive/piezoelectric ME composite element disposed on the Bragg reflector, a first electrically conductive contact and a second electrically conductive contact. The first contact is disposed between the Bragg reflector and the magnetostrictive/piezoelectric ME composite element and electrically coupled to a bottom surface of the magnetostrictive/piezoelectric ME composite element. The second contact is disposed on top of the magnetostrictive/piezoelectric ME composite element and electrically coupled to the top of the magnetostrictive/piezoelectric ME composite element. The magnetostrictive/piezoelectric ME composite element comprises a magnetorestrictive multilayer deposited on a piezoelectric layer. The magnetorestrictive multilayer produces an in-plane uniaxial magnetic anisotropy (UMA). The UMA is a twofold UMA that exhibits a symmetric radiation pattern.
