制御が実行される。Further, in the case where the light emitting section 8 and the light receiving section 4 face each other in the correct relationship from the beginning, there is no need to aim the light emitting section 8 at the light receiving section 4 of the main operation panel 3 again. and,
By receiving the operation signal r), control according to the signal is executed.
次に、第２図を参照して本発明をワンボン２スカーに適
用した場合の実施例を説明する。Next, an embodiment in which the present invention is applied to a one-bon two-scar will be described with reference to FIG.
ワンボックスカーの場合、座席が３列以上ある。In the case of a one-box car, there are three or more rows of seats.
前席１の前方のインストルメントパネル２には主操作パ

の発光部８は主操作パネル３の受光部・１を指向してい
る。また操作部９は２列目の座席１０の乗員が操作でき
るよう斜め下方を向いている。There is a main operation panel 3 on an instrument panel 2 in front of the front seat 1, and a light receiving section 4 is arranged here. Further, as in the above embodiment, a remote control operating device I7 integrated with a room run 76 is attached to the ceiling portion 5 that can be reached by the occupants of the second row seat 1 (). Remote control operation device 17
The light emitting section 8 is directed toward the light receiving section 1 of the main operation panel 3. Further, the operating section 9 faces diagonally downward so that the occupant in the second row seat 10 can operate it.
さて、ワンボックスカーの場合、第３列目の座席１１に
座っている求１−１は前席天井部のリモコン操作装置１
７には手が届かない。また、３列目の乗員の手が届く天
井部５に、リモコン操作装置を取り付けて直接主操作パ
ネル３を指向させても、２列目の乗員が中央に座った場
合には、その釆ｊ１が送信の邪魔になるおそれがある。Now, in the case of a one-box car, demand 1-1, who is sitting on seat 11 in the third row, is using the remote control device 1 on the ceiling of the front seat.
I can't reach 7. Furthermore, even if the remote control device is attached to the ceiling 5 within the reach of the third row occupants and is directed directly to the main operation panel 3, when the second row occupants sit in the center, the button j1 may interfere with transmission.
そこで、この実施例では、第３列目の乗員が操作し得る
天井部５にリモコン操作装置２７を取り付けるものの、
そのリモコン操作装置２′７がらの操作信号を、前席天
井部のリモコン操作装置１７で中継して、主操作パネル

を中継して発光部８から送信する中継器を装置和してい
る。Therefore, in this embodiment, although the remote control device 27 is attached to the ceiling portion 5 that can be operated by the third row passenger,
The operation signal from the remote control operation device 2'7 is relayed by the remote control operation device 17 on the ceiling of the front seat and is transmitted to the main operation panel 3. In other words, the front side remote control 15. The light-receiving unit 17 is newly provided with a light-receiving unit 20 on its rear surface, and is also equipped with a repeater that relays the signal received by the light-receiving unit 20 and transmits it from the light-emitting unit 8.
そして、後側のリモコン操作装置２７の発光部２８を、
前側リモコン操作装置１７の受光部２０に指向させてい
る。Then, the light emitting part 28 of the remote control operating device 27 on the rear side,
It is directed toward the light receiving section 20 of the front remote control operating device 17.
このリモコン装置１こおいては、？ｔＳ３列目の乗員が
リモコン操作装置２７のｆｆ１ｆヤ部９を操作すると、
発光部２８から赤外線パルスＰとして信号が発信され、
この信号が前席のリモコン操作装置１７の受光部２０に
入射する。そして、その信号はリモコン操作装置１７の
中継器を介して再びリモコン装置１７の発光部８から発
信され、主操作パネル３に向けて送られる。What about this remote control device? tS When the passenger in the third row operates the ff1f section 9 of the remote control operating device 27,
A signal is emitted from the light emitting unit 28 as an infrared pulse P,
This signal enters the light receiving section 20 of the remote control device 17 in the front seat. Then, the signal is transmitted again from the light emitting section 8 of the remote control device 17 via the relay of the remote control device 17, and is sent toward the main operation panel 3.
この際、後席のリモコン操作装置２７からの信号は、天

いるので、乗員は発光部２８の狙いを新たに定める必要
がない。また、？ｔＳ２列目の乗Ｈがリモコン操作装置
１７を操作する場合の作用は前の実施例の場合と同じで
ある。At this time, since the signal from the remote control device 27 in the rear seat is sent along the ceiling 5, even if a passenger is sitting in the center of the second row seat 10, the signal will not be disturbed. By relaying in this manner, the signal can be reliably sent from the remote control device 28 to the main operation panel 3. Further, since the relationship between the light emitting section 28 and the light receiving section 20 is fixed, the occupant does not need to newly aim the light emitting section 28. Also,? The operation when the power H in the second column of tS operates the remote control operating device 17 is the same as in the previous embodiment.
なお、後側のリモコン装置２７ら、ルームランプ６と一
体に取り付けられており、電源はルームランプ６の配線

しやすいよう斜め下方を向いている。Note that the remote control device 27 on the rear side is attached integrally with the room lamp 6, and the power source is taken from the wiring of the room lamp 6. Further, the operating section 9 faces diagonally downward so that it can be easily operated by a passenger in the third row.

。この場合は、光学的中継と呼ぶことができる。In the case of the above embodiment, a signal from the light emitting section 28 of the rear remote control operating device 27 is received by the light receiving section 20 of the front remote control production device 17, and the signal is transmitted to the middle #1. The infrared pulse P from the rear remote control operating device 27 is electrically relayed by the device and then emitted again from the light emitting unit 8 of the remote control operating device 17.
The light may be reflected toward the actual fabrication panel. In this case, it can be called optical relay.

しても勿論本発明は利用できる。Further, in the above two embodiments, the case of an infrared transmission method has been described, but light other than infrared rays, foot sound waves, etc. may also be used. Further, although the case of an air conditioner has been described as the device to be operated, the present invention can of course be used as a remote control device for audio equipment.
