Abstract

A water-level/vibration detection apparatus includes a diaphragm adapted to be moved by air pressure applied through an air hose and a core slidably placed on a support shaft of the diaphragm while being elastically supported by an elastic member. The water-level/vibration detection apparatus detects the level of water and vibration via movement of the core into a coil which constitutes a resonance circuit.
