Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION

The present application claims priority to Chinese Application No. 201620691069.8, filed Jul. 4, 2016, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein for all purposes by this reference.

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates to a shelf, and specifically relates to a lamp-equipped tent shelf.

BACKGROUND

Along with the fast development of the society and economy, people become increasingly fond of outdoor recreation activities. Tents are popular, because they are convenient to carry and can provide a temporary outdoor venue for people to rest during outdoor activities. To be conveniently carried around, a tent typically has a small interior space. Other articles can only be placed outside the tent or on the ground inside the tent. Some articles, such as food, may attract ants or other insects, thereby making these articles dirty and leading to waste. In addition, additional lamps are further needed to provide illumination for instance at night, which increases purchase cost and make tents difficult to carry.
