A forced-ventilation device ventilates a compartment of a vehicle by forced ventilation by actuating a blower of an air-conditioning device of the vehicle when the compartment is left at a high temperature. When a mode for forced ventilation has been set by the user, when a mobile device approaching the vehicle together with a user enters a predetermined detection area within which the mobile device is detectable by a response signal, and when the response signal is successfully verified, a control portion switches ON an ignition switch of the vehicle, opens one or two or more windows using an opening and closing mechanism, and directs the air-conditioning device to actuate the blower.

In an antenna, a first element is connected to a GND of a feeder, on the same plane as a GND of a wireless circuit, and isolated from the GND of the wireless circuit. A second element is on the same plane as the GND of the wireless circuit and a first end connected to the first element and a second end as an open end. The third element has a first end connected to a power source of the feeder and located in a region occupied by the first element perpendicularly to the first element so that its first end source faces down. The fourth element has a first end connected to a second end of the third element and a second end as an open end, is parallel to the first element, and is perpendicular to a line connecting the first and second ends of the second element.

Antenna

An in-vehicle device wirelessly sends a request signal to an assistance-possible area in which a user of a welfare-use seat device can be assisted. When a wireless portable key device, i.e., a remote control is present inside of the assistance-possible area, the portable key device returns a response signal containing an ID code. When receiving the response signal, the in-vehicle device executes a collation relative to the ID code contained in the response signal. When the collation is successfully completed, a short-depression movement mode is designated. When a short-time manipulation or depression is once applied to an operation instruction switch of the wireless portable key device under the short-depression movement mode being designated, the movement of a welfare-use seat device is started toward a movement end position without need further continued manipulation or depression to the operation instruction switch.
