Abstract

An ultrasonic wave output apparatus includes at least one ultrasonic wave output unit and a vibration portion. The ultrasonic wave output unit is configured to output ultrasonic waves corresponding to an input signal from a sound wave output surface along a predetermined travel direction. The vibration portion has a vibration surface parallel to the sound wave output surface and set at a distance nλ from the sound wave output surface, where n is an integer of 0 or more and λ is the wavelength of the ultrasonic waves, and is a plate-like member that surrounds the periphery of the ultrasonic wave output unit in directions at right angles to the travel direction, and is configured to transmit vibration produced by the ultrasonic wave output unit to the vibration surface.
