The receiving section 2 receives a selective calling signal via an antenna 1 and reports an incoming call to a carrier, and receives electric power when receiving vibration or the like. The vibration power generation unit 3 includes a power generation unit 3 that generates power and a power storage unit 4 that stores power generated by the vibration power generation unit 3 and supplies power to the reception unit 2. The vibration power generation unit 3 has a generator connected to an eccentric rotator that rotates by receiving vibration or the like, and rotates the generator by mechanical energy accumulated by the rotation of the eccentric rotator to convert the power to electric energy. Occur. When the selective call receiver is swung by the wearer, the vibration power generation unit 3 generates electric power. The power thus generated is stored in the power storage unit 4 and used as a power source for the receiving unit 2.

より携帯者に通報することも可能である。FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing a second embodiment of the present invention, and the same parts as those of the first embodiment shown in FIG. The difference from FIG. 1 is that a backup power supply battery 5, a voltage detection unit 6, and a power supply switching unit 7 are provided. Voltage detection section 6 detects the output voltage of power storage section 4 and sends out switching signal S when the output voltage falls below a predetermined value.
Normally, the storage power switching unit 7 sends the output of the power storage unit 4 to the receiving unit 2, but upon receiving the switching signal S from the voltage detection unit 6, switches to the backup power supply battery 5 and sends it out. Therefore, when the power of the storage unit 4 is depleted, the power of the backup power supply battery 5 is supplied, and when the power of the storage unit 4 is recovered,
The power of the storage unit 4 is supplied. When the receiving unit 2 receives the call signal and notifies the carrier of the incoming call, the driving current A is sent to the vibration power generation unit 3 and the generator of the vibration power generation unit 3 functions as a motor to drive the eccentric rotator. Can be rotated to notify the wearer by vibration.
