A ventilation member (100) of the invention includes a tubular part (11), a gas permeable filter (19), and a cover part (31). In an attached state where the tubular part (11) is fit into the cover part (31), gaps functioning as gas passages (AR2 and AR3) are formed between a bottom portion (35) of the cover part (31) and the gas permeable filter (19) and between a side wall portion (39) of the cover part (31) and a body portion (17) of the tubular part (11). The opening area (S2) of a filter-end opening (15) with respect to an in-plane direction (WL) perpendicular to the thickness direction of the gas permeable filter (19) is larger than the opening area (S1) of a connection-end opening (13) with respect to the in-plane direction (WL).

1. A ventilation member, comprising: a tubular part, in an interior of which a gas passage for an object that needs ventilation is formed, the tubular part having a connection-end opening which is an opening on a side on which the object is to be connected, and a filter-end opening, and a body portion positioned between the connection-end opening and the filter-end opening;a gas permeable filter disposed at the filter-end opening of the tubular part to close the filter-end opening; anda cover part, inside of which the tubular part is fit, wherein: the cover part includes a bottom portion that faces the gas permeable filter in an attached state where the tubular part is fit inside from a side of the gas permeable filter and a side wall portion that extends from the bottom portion so as to surround the filter-end opening and the body portion from outside,a material of the cover part is thermoplastic resin having no rubber elasticity,a material of the tubular part is elastomer,the cover part comprises at least one fixing piece arranged on an inner surface side of the side wall portion for securing the tubular part to the cover part, the at least one fixing piece extending in a direction toward an opening of the cover part,the at least one fixing piece pushes the tubular part toward a center axis line of the tubular part in the attached state, the center axis line being parallel to a thickness direction of the gas permeable filter, so that the tubular part is allowed to undergo elastic deformation,in the attached state, a first gap is formed between the bottom portion of the cover part and the gas permeable filter, a second gap is formed outside the tubular part and inside the side wall portion, and the first gap and the second gap communicate with an exterior,the at least one fixing piece is configured to contact a side portion of a side wall of the tubular part in the attached state,the cover part comprises at least one spacer that supports the tubular part at the filter-end opening,the tubular part or the gas permeable filter is in contact with the spacer in the attached state, andthe at least one spacer extends closer to the center axis line than the at least one fixing piece in the attached state. 2. The ventilation member according to claim 1, wherein the body portion of the tubular part comprises an outer surface and an inner surface, the at least one fixing piece is in contact with the outer surface of the body portion in the attached state, andthe body portion is compressed in a thickness direction thereof through elastic deformation of the body portion when the ventilation member is attached on a nozzle-like filter-attached portion such that the inner surface of the body portion is in contact with the nozzle-like filter attached portion. 3. The ventilation member according to claim 1, wherein the at least one fixing piece is tapered so as to ease attachment of the tubular part to the cover part. 4. The ventilation member according to claim 1, wherein the at least one spacer prevents the bottom portion of the cover part from contacting closely with the ventilation filter entirely, so that the first gap is maintained. 5. The ventilation member according to claim 1, wherein the gas permeable filter is fixed on the tubular part. 6. The ventilation member according to claim 1, wherein the thermoplastic resin having no rubber elasticity is at least one selected from polypropylene, polyethylene, polyethylene terephthalate and ABS, and the elastomer is based on at least one selected from polystyrene, polyolefin, polyvinyl chloride, polyester, polyurethane, polyamide and fluoropolymer. 7. The ventilation member according to claim 1, wherein when the ventilation member is placed in an ambient atmosphere, the gas passage in the tubular part is in communication directly with the ambient atmosphere at the connection end opening.
