  • Patent number: 11400380
    Abstract: A language information retention section retains working language information for specifying a user-selected working language in an information processing apparatus. A download processing section downloads application software into an auxiliary storage apparatus. The download processing section acquires a data region in the auxiliary storage apparatus as needed for an application body and language-dependent files for a working language before the start of an application software download, and then executes the application software download. In a case where the working language used by an application is changed, the download processing section confirms whether or not a data region for language-dependent files for the changed working language can be acquired in the auxiliary storage apparatus 2.

  • Patent number: 11211188
    Abstract: In a stepwise structure formed in a multilayer coil component, a difference occurs in a shrinkage amount between a maximum film thickness portion in which the number of layers is large and a minimum film thickness portion in which the number of layers is small due to portions different in the number of layers of coil parts (that is, upper coil part, lower coil part, and connecting part) adjacent to each other like the maximum film thickness portion and the minimum film thickness portion, readily causing a crack by an inner stress due to the difference in the shrinkage amount. In a multilayer coil component according to the present disclosure, a stress relaxation part overlapping with a maximum film thickness portion whose shrinkage amount is large is provided to relax inner stress in a stepwise structure, resulting in prevention of a crack.
