Patent ID: 11560962

Abstract:
A ventilation component (1a) is to be attached to a housing (2) at a ventilation opening (5). The ventilation component (1a) includes a gas-permeable membrane (10), a ventilation valve (20), and a structural member (30). The structural member (30) has an inner space (40), and at least one of a first ventilation path (51) and a second ventilation paths (52). The inner space (40) is a space accommodating the gas-permeable membrane (10) and/or the ventilation valve (20). The first ventilation path (51) allows the inner space (40) to communicate with an external space of the ventilation component (1a). The first ventilation path (51) has a first inner opening (51i) and a first outer opening (51e), and the first inner opening (51i) faces the first outer opening (51e). The first inner opening (51i) and the first outer opening (51e) are present along a plane parallel to an outer surface (2s) of the housing. The second ventilation path (52) has a second inner opening (52i) and a second outer opening (52e), and the second inner opening (52i) is present without facing the second outer opening (52e).
