  • Patent number: 12687326
    Abstract: An air cooling-type refrigeration device includes a device body, an air cooling system attached to the device body, and a drawer which may be pulled out relative to the device body, the drawer being capable of receiving cold air provided by the air cooling system, so as to cool an object stored in the drawer. The air cooling-type refrigeration device further comprises a magnetic field generating apparatus and a detection apparatus. When the magnetic field generating apparatus is powered on, a magnetic field acting on the object stored in the drawer is generated. The detection apparatus is used to detect whether the drawer is pulled out. The magnetic field generating apparatus and the detection apparatus are configured such that the magnetic field generating apparatus is powered off when the detection apparatus detects that the drawer is pulled out.

  • Publication number: 20240353155
    Abstract: A magnetic field freshness-preserving storage container and a refrigerator. The magnetic field freshness-preserving storage container includes a storage box, two uniform magnetization plates, and two sets of electromagnetic components. Each set of electromagnetic components is arranged corresponding to one uniform magnetization plate and forms an electromagnetic field after being electrified. The magnetic field distribution of the electromagnetic field can be changed by means of the uniform magnetization plates, such that the electromagnetic field is distributed more uniformly in the storage space. Since the electromagnetic field is distributed more uniformly in the storage space, stored objects can have the same storage quality. In addition, the uniform magnetization plates can save on the consumption of magnetic materials.
