This patent application claims the benefit and priority of Chinese Patent Application No. 202223394900.8 filed on Dec. 15, 2022, the disclosure of which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety as part of the present application.
The present disclosure relates to the technical field of foldable tents, in particular to double-spliced foldable tents, and more specifically, to a double-spliced foldable tent with central lifting and automatic opening and closing structure.
Foldable tents are popular among outdoor activists because of their small volume when folding and large shelter space after unfolding. In order to expand the continuous shelter space of the tent, the single roof tents are usually spread out and used together. However, the tarpaulin of the roof single tents is also independent, and there are gaps between adjacent tents. In case of rainy days and other bad weather, the adjacent tents are prone to water leakage or wind leakage. Therefore, the foldable tents with double roofs and large space came into being.
In some tents, such as a stable foldable canopy with issuing publication No. CN205875902U, one of the central tops and a group of inclined frame are hinged by only one inclined rod. When the double roof tent is fully deployed, the foot frames at the four corners of the double roof tent cannot be moved outward. However, because the angle of articulation between the inclined rod and the central top cannot be guaranteed to be unchanged, that is, under the action of external forces such as impact or wind, the foot frames are easy to move towards the direction of the central top, and the angle of articulation between the inclined rod and the central top will change. Therefore, the double roof tent is unstable when fully deployed, and is easy to collapse due to external forces.
In some tents, such as a foldable tent with issuing publication No. CN208830822U, one of the central tops is composed of an upper top and a lower support. Although the upper top and the lower support are connected through the inclined frame, the upper top and the lower support cannot be locked. After the double roof tent is fully deployed, the lower support can still move relative to the upper top, that is, the stability of the double roof tent after deployment cannot be achieved through the lower support. There is still the situation that the foot frames at the four corners of the double roof tent moves due to external forces, resulting in instability and easy folding of the double roof tent after fully deployed.
The present disclosure aims at the problem that the existing double roof tents realize the deployment by pulling the foot frames at the four corners, but the non-locking structure is easy to cause the foot frames to retract and move inward, which leads to folding.

The embodiment mainly describes a double-spliced foldable tent with central lifting and automatic opening and closing structure, which ensures the stability of the double roof tent after deployment by locking the spring pin between the upper top and the lower support of the central top, as follows.
As shown in
One group of side inclined frame 004 includes a first inclined rod 23, a second inclined rod 24, a third inclined rod 25 and a fourth inclined rod 26, wherein one end of the first inclined rod 23 and one end of the second inclined rod 24 are hinged on the central top 001, the first inclined rod 23 is hinged with the other end of the second inclined rod 24 at the position where it deviates from both ends, the other end of the first inclined rod 23 is hinged with one end of the third inclined rod 25, and the third inclined rod 25 is hinged with one end of the fourth inclined rod 26 at the position where it deviates from both ends. The other end of the third inclined rod 25 and the other end of the fourth inclined rod 26 are hinged on the middle frame 002 or a group of edge frame 003. Preferably, in order to distinguish the side inclined frame 004 connected with the middle frame 002 or the edge frame 003, the side inclined frame 004 connected with the middle frame 002 is called the middle side inclined frame 004a in the following description, and the side inclined frame 004 connected with the edge frame 003 is called the edge side inclined frame 004b in the following description.
Preferably, a group of central top 001 is hinged with four first inclined rods 23 and four second inclined rods 24.
In order to avoid the relative rotation of the first inclined rod 23 and the third inclined rod 25 after the side inclined frame 004 is unfolded, the third inclined rod 25 is fixed with an S-shaped buckle 27, and the S-shaped buckle 27 can limit the rotation angle of the first inclined rod 23 when it deviates from the third inclined rod 25.
As shown in
When the upper top 01 and the lower support 02 are locked by the spring pin 4, the four second inclined rods 24 hinged on the lower support 02 cannot rotate relative to the first inclined rod 23, that is, the rotation of the first inclined rod 23 relative to the third inclined rod 25 is limited by the S-shaped buckle 27, and under the action of the fourth inclined rod 26, the spacing from the central top 001 to the middle frame 002 and the edge frame 003 is limited, so that the double roof tent will not be folded due to the offset of the four corners.
In this embodiment, the upper top 01 includes a top cover 1 hinged with the first inclined rod 23 and an insertion connector 2 which is inserted and fixed below the top cover 1. The top cover 1 is provided with a mounting hole A 1-1, and the insertion connector 2 is provided with an upper section 2-1, an exposed section 2-2 and the abovementioned inserting section 2-3 from top to bottom.

The insertion connector is inserted into the mounting hole A 1-1 through the upper section 2-1, the insertion connector 2 and top cover 1 are fixedly connected by screwing a screw into a side wall of the mounting hole A 1-1.
In order to facilitate the insertion of the insertion section 2-3 of the insertion connector 2 into the insertion hole 6-1 of the lower support 02, a tip 3 with a smaller lower part and a larger upper part is provided at a lower end of the inserting section 2-3.

In order to prevent the inserting section 2-3 of the insertion connector 2 from being deflected when being fixed in the mounting hole A 1-1, both the mounting hole A 1-1 and the upper section 2-1 of the insertion connector 2 are of a non-cylindrical structure; or when the mounting hole A 1-1 and the upper section 2-1 of the insertion connector 2 are of a cylindrical structure, a matching slot and convex part 3-2 are provided on an inner wall of the mounting hole A 1-1 and an outer wall of the upper section 2-1 to limit rotation therebetween. Preferably, in order to ensure the integrity of the insertion connector 2, the tip 3, the exposed section 2-2 and the inserting section 2-3 of the insertion connector 2 may all adopt a non-cylindrical structure.
In this embodiment, the lower support 02 includes a bottom cover 5 hinged to the second inclined rod 24, and a socket piece 6 fixed above the bottom cover 5 in an inserting manner An insertion hole 6-1 and a pin hole 6-2 are provided on the socket piece 6.

An insertion section 6-3 inserted into the mounting hole B 5-1 is provided at a lower end of the socket piece 6. A fixing method between the insertion section 6-3 and the mounting hole B 5-1 and shapes can refer to the mounting hole A 1-1 and the upper section 2-1. In order to ensure the aesthetic appearance after the upper top 01 and the lower support 02 are locked by the spring pin 4, the inserting end of the insertion connector 2 of the upper top 01 can be completely inserted into the insertion hole 6-1 of the socket piece 6. In order to ensure the overall aesthetic appearance of the central top 001, the outer wall of the insertion hole 6-1 is of a non-cylindrical structure as the outer wall of the exposed section 2-2 of the insertion connector 2.
In order to conveniently press and push out the spring pin 4 inserted into the pin hole 6-2, a switch piece 7 is installed on the socket piece 6. The switch piece 7 is fixed on the outer wall of the insertion hole 6-1 of the socket piece 6. The switch piece 7 is provided with an operation hole 7-1. A pressing part 7-2 is provided in the operation hole 7-1, and one end of the pressing part 7-2 is connected to a hole wall of the operation hole 7-1, the other end can be pressed. By performing a pressing operation on the pressing part 7-2 of the switch piece 7, the pressing part 7-2 can push the pin shaft to withdraw from the pin hole 6-2, and the upper top 01 and the lower support 02 can be separated from each other.
