Abstract

PURPOSE:To eliminate a need of a cable for transmission by converting a signal to an ultrasonic wave and using a machine main body or the like as a transmission line to transmit it. CONSTITUTION:The signal of an operation switch or the like on a machine operation board 10 is converted to a serial pulse signal 11 and has the frequency modulated by a modulating circuit 12, and this high frequency signal is amplified by a transmission-side amplifier 13. An ultrasonic oscillator 1 is driven by the amplifier 13 to generate an ultrasonic wave. The ultrasonic oscillator 1 is mechanically coupled to a machine main body 2 or a cabinet, and the ultrasonic wave is transmitted with the machine main body 2 or the like as the transmission line and is demodulated to a pulse signal 23 by a demodulating circuit 22. Thus, the cable for transmission is unnecessary.
