Abstract An automatic emergency alarm reception apparatus for a broadcasting receiver which has a radio frequency part and a low frequency part, comprising an ON/OFF switch connected between the radio frequency part and the low frequency part, for turning on the broadcasting receiver when a specific frequency signal indicative of a state of emergency is received at an antenna of the broadcasting receiver, and an emergency alarm signal detection circuit for detecting the specific frequency signal from the radio frequency part to control the ON/OFF switch. The emergency alarm signal detection circuit includes an air defense alarm signal detection part and an air-raid alarm signal detection part. The air defense alarm signal detection part is provided with a band pass filter, a level comparator, an inverter, a pulse generator and a counter. The air-raid alarm signal detection part is provided with first to third band pass filters, first to third level comparators and a sequential detector. The emergency alarm signal detection circuit further includes an OR gate for performing an OR operation with respect to an output signal from the counter and an output signal from the sequential detector, and an R-S flip-flop for controlling the ON/OFF switch in response to an output signal from the OR gate.
In a broadcasting receiver which has a radio frequency par; and a low frequency part, an automatic emergency alarm reception apparatus comprising: an ON/OFF switch connected between said radio frequency part and said low frequency part, for turning on said broadcasting receiver when a specific frequency signal indicative of a state of emergency is received at an antenna of said broadcasting receiver; and emergency alarm signal detection means for detecting the specific frequency signal from said radio frequency part to control said ON/OFF switch, said emergency alarm signal detection means including an amplifier for amplifying the specific frequency signal from said radio frequency part, first to third band pass filters for band pass filtering an output signal from said amplifier at first to third bands, respectively, first to third level comparators for wave-shaping output signals from said first to third band pass filters, respectively, an inverter for inverting an output signal from said second level comparator, a counter for counting an output signal from said inverter to detect an air defense alarm signal therefrom, a pulse generator for generating a pulse in the unit of seconds and outputting the generated pulse to said counter, a sequential detector for detecting an air-raid alarm signal from output signals from said first and third level comparators and the output signal from said second level comparator, an OR gate for performing an OR operation with respect to an output signal from said counter and an output signal from said sequential detector, and an R-S flip-flop for generating a control signal in response to an output signal from said OR gate and outputting the generated control signal to said ON/OFF switch.
