Abstract: A vibration sensing apparatus including an acceleration sensor 2 for outputting a sensing signal corresponding to a vibrating acceleration, a level discriminator 3 for generating an output when the output level of the signal from the acceleration sensor 2 exceeds a preset reference level, a display unit 4 for displaying the output of the level discriminator 3, a piezoelectric ceramic power generating unit 5 using piezoelectric ceramics for generating a charge when it is subjected to vibration, and a conversion unit 6 for converting the charge generated by the piezoelectric ceramic power generating unit 5 into DC power, the DC power being supplied to the level discriminator and to the display unit as power to be consumed by them.
