Abstract
A ventilation apparatus includes a motor, a fan, a housing, and a ring. A projection protrudes from one of an outer peripheral surface of a peripheral wall part of the housing and an inner peripheral surface of the ring, whereas an engagement wall and a guide wall are provided on the other of the outer peripheral surface of the peripheral wall part of the housing and the inner peripheral surface of the ring. The guide wall has a guide surface configured to guide the ring rearward relative to the housing and to guide the projection to an engagement position at which the projection is abuttable on an engagement surface of the engagement wall. In a direction in which the projection moves away from the guide surface in a front-rear direction, an open space extends from the guide surface to an area that corresponds to an end of the second surface.
