PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve a ventilation device to prevent a moving member from inclining to a guide pillar and being like a pothhook, thereby stopping the movement of a drive machine.SOLUTION: The ventilation device includes an openable sheet 1 that opens/closes an opening O formed to a greenhouse H and is hung on the greenhouse H, a winding shaft 2 that winds up and off the openable sheet 1, the drive machine 3 that rotates the winding shaft 2, and the guide pillar 4 to which the drive machine 3 is movably installed along an axial direction. The drive machine 3 is composed of a drive machine body 30 that is connected with an end of the winding shaft 2 and rotates of the winding shaft 2, and the moving member 31 that is movable along the guide pillar 4. The drive machine 3 moves along the guide pillar 4 along with the winding up and off of the openable sheet 1. In the ventilation device, the drive machine body 30 is connected with the moving member 31 swingably.【課題】 換気装置の改良に関し、移動部材がガイド柱に対して傾いて自在鉤のようになり駆動機が動かなくなることを防止する。【解決手段】 温室Hに形成される開口Oを開閉し温室Hに吊設される開閉シート1と、この開閉シート1を巻き取り、巻き戻す巻き上げ軸2と、この巻き上げ軸2を回転する駆動機3と、この駆動機3が軸方向に沿って移動可能に取り付けられるガイド柱4とを備える換気装置であって、駆動機3が巻き上げ軸2の一端に連結されてこの巻き上げ軸2を回転する駆動機本体30と、ガイド柱4に沿って移動可能な移動部材31とからなり、開閉シート1の巻き取り、巻き戻しに伴って駆動機3がガイド柱4に沿って移動する換気装置において、駆動機本体30が移動部材31に揺動可能に連結される。【選択図】 図2
