  • Publication number: 20240412917
    Abstract: To prevent the occurrence of a short-circuit failure through a magnetic body layer. A coil component includes interlayer insulating films and conductor layers which are alternately stacked on a magnetic body layer. The conductor layers respectively have coil patterns, terminal patterns which are provided at positions overlapping a terminal electrode, and terminal patterns which are provided at positions overlapping a terminal electrode. The terminal patterns are connected to the terminal electrode, and the terminal patterns are connected to the terminal electrode. The terminal pattern is insulated from the terminal electrode. This can prevent a short circuit failure between a coil pattern or terminal pattern and the terminal pattern through the magnetic body layer.

  • Publication number: 20240395452
    Abstract: To provide a stacked coupling coil component capable of achieving a desired coupling coefficient while suppressing the height of the component. A stacked coupling coil component 1 has conductor layers L1, L3, and L5 respectively including spiral coils 11 to 13, conductor layers L2, L4, and L6 respectively including spiral coils 21 to 23, and a conductor layer L7 including spiral coils 31 and 41 which are disposed at mutually different planar positions. The spiral coils 11 to 13 and 21 to 23 overlap one another. The spiral coils 11 to 13 and 31 are connected in series between terminal electrodes E1 and E2, the spiral coils 21 to 23 and 41 are connected in series between terminal electrodes E4 and E3. This allows adjustment of a coupling coefficient, making it possible to achieve a desired coupling coefficient while suppressing the height of the component.

  • Publication number: 20240377899
    Abstract: An improvement in accuracy in recognition of the position and posture of input devices is achieved. The input device has a grip extending in an up-down direction, an upper portion positioned upward of the grip and having operating members to be operated by a finger disposed therein, and a lower portion positioned downward of the grip and having a plurality of to-be-tracked points disposed therein. The width of the lower portion is greater than the width of the grip. This makes it easier to dispose a large number of to-be-tracked points in the lower portion.

  • Publication number: 20240260811
    Abstract: A medical system includes a treatment tool provided with an end effector that treats a tissue, an imager capturing an image of the tissue, and a processor. The processor acquires color information of a target tissue from the captured image output from the imager. The target tissue is a portion of the tissue that covers at least a portion of the end effector that has slid into the tissue. The processor estimates a force applied to the target tissue by the end effector from the color information of the target tissue. The processor notifies an operator of a result of the estimation of the force.
