  • Patent number: 10681763
    Abstract: Connectability determining circuitry determines connectability over a millimeter wave band with respect to a content delivery apparatus. When a determination result of the connectability indicates that connection is enabled, request-signal generating circuitry generates a connection request signal for requesting connection over a millimeter wave band, from when undownloaded content is selected until download of the selected undownloaded content is requested, and transmits the connection request signal to the content delivery apparatus via millimeter-wave wireless circuitry. Control circuitry downloads the undownloaded content from the content delivery apparatus via the millimeter-wave wireless circuitry.

  • Patent number: 10258934
    Abstract: A waterproof member (20) includes a first adhesive layer (22), a second adhesive layer (24), and a porous layer (26). The porous layer (26) is disposed between the first adhesive layer (22) and the second adhesive layer (24). The first adhesive layer (22) and the second adhesive layer (24) each have a frame shape in plan view. When the first adhesive layer (22), the second adhesive layer (24), and the porous layer (26) are seen in plan view, the outer boundary of the porous layer (26) lies within the outer boundary of the first adhesive layer (22) and the outer boundary of the second adhesive layer (24). The first adhesive layer (22) is bonded directly to the second adhesive layer (24) in a region outside the outer boundary of the porous layer (26).
