Abstract
An antenna device for a movable body such as automobile comprises a base member to be attached substantially horizontally to the movable body, a plurality of horizontal antenna elements for receiving electric wave attached horizontally to the base member and a plurality of vertical antenna elements for receiving electric wave attached upright to the base member. The horizontal antenna elements are substituted with a defogger provided for the rear window of the automobile. The horizontal and vertical antenna elements are electrically connected, through terminal members attached to the base member, to a switching circuit for selectively switching ones of the vertical and horizontal antenna elements. The vertical antenna elements are accommodated, when unused, in grooves formed to the upper surface of the base member and an engaging mechanism is disposed in the groove so as to firmly support the accommodated vertical antenna element in a disengageable manner.
