The present invention relates to a tent assembly and, more particularly, to a tent assembly including serially connected tents.
A tent is generally comprised of a tent frame and a tent canvas and can provide a place for rest and sleep for persons. Currently available tents have independent structural designs. When the interior space of a single tent is not enough, another tent must be set. However, there is no connecting passage between two adjacent tents, such that a person cannot directly enter from one tent into another tent, adversely affecting use convenience. Thus, a need exists for a novel tent assembly that mitigates and/or obviates the above drawbacks.
An objective of the present invention is to provide a connecting tent between two tents for providing intercommunication between interior spaces of the two tents. Thus, a person can enter the two tents through the connecting tent to provide more use convenience, which is suitable for medical stations, work stations, leisure activities, and camping.
In an aspect, a tent assembly comprises two tents spaced from each other in a longitudinal direction. Each of the two tents includes a tent body and a tent frame supporting the tent body, forming a tent space in the tent body. Each tent body includes two first tent canvases at front and rear ends thereof and spaced from each other in the longitudinal direction. Each tent body further includes two second tent canvases spaced from each other in a transverse direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction. Each of the two first tent canvases includes a first access opening to which an openable first door cloth is disposed. A connecting tent is connected between the two tents. The connecting tent includes a connecting tent body. The connecting tent body includes two connecting tent canvases extending in the longitudinal direction and spaced from each other in the transverse direction. The connecting tent body is connected between one of the two first tent canvases at the rear end of a front one of the two tents and one of the two first tent canvases at the front end of a rear one of the two tents. The connecting tent includes a passageway extending in the longitudinal direction. The passageway is connected between the first access opening at the rear end of the front one of the two tents and the first access opening at the front end of the rear one of the two tents.
In an example, each tent body includes a bottom tent canvas disposed to a bottom thereof.
In an example, a bottom tent canvas is disposed below a lower side of the connecting tent body of the connecting tent and is connected between the bottom tent canvases of the two tents.
In an example, at least one of the two second tent canvases of the tent body of each of the two tents includes a second access opening to which an openable second cloth is disposed.
In an example, one of the two connecting tent canvases of the tent body includes an openable/closable third access opening.
In an example, at least one of the two second tent canvases of the tent body of each of the two tents includes a second access opening to which an openable second door cloth is disposed. One of the two connecting tent canvases of the tent body includes an openable/closable third access opening. The second access openings and the third access opening are on a same side.
In an example, each first access opening includes a hanger rod transversely disposed on a top end of the first access opening. A top portion of the openable first door cloth is hung on the hanger rod and is movable along the hanger rod. Each first access opening includes two lateral sides. Each openable first door cloth includes two lateral sides. At least one first connecting member is disposed on each of the two lateral sides of each first access opening and each of the two lateral sides of each openable first door cloth. A width of each second access opening is larger than a width of each first access opening. A top edge of each openable second door cloth is connected to a top portion of an associated one of the second door access openings. Each second access opening includes two lateral sides. Each openable second door cloth includes two lateral sides. A second connecting member is disposed on each of the two lateral sides of each second access opening and each of the two lateral sides of each openable second door cloth, such that each openable second door cloth is capable of being coiled upward and positioned after the openable second door cloth is opened. An openable/closable third connecting member is disposed to the third access opening of the connecting tent canvas of the connecting tent body.
In an example, each tent body includes an outer covering cloth extending transversely along a top portion of an associated first access opening and extending to left and right sides of an associated first tent canvas. A plurality of coupling rings is disposed on an inner side of each outer covering cloth and is spaced from each other. A plurality of coupling members is disposed on each of front and rear sides of the connecting tent body, is spaced from each other, and is configured to couple with the plurality of coupling rings of the outer covering cloth of one of the two first tent canvases at the rear end of the front one of the two tents and the plurality of coupling rings of the outer covering cloth of one of the two first tent canvases at the front end of the rear one of the two tents.
In another aspect, a tent assembly comprises at least three tents spaced from each other in a longitudinal direction, with each two adjacent tents having a connecting tent interconnected therebetween. Each of the at least three tents includes a tent body and a tent frame supporting the tent body, forming a tent space in the tent body. Each tent body includes two first tent canvases at front and rear ends thereof and spaced from each other in the longitudinal direction. Each tent body further includes two second tent canvases spaced from each other in a transverse direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction. Each of the two first tent canvases includes a first access opening to which an openable first door cloth is disposed. Each connecting tent includes a connecting tent body. Each connecting tent body includes two connecting tent canvases extending in the longitudinal direction and spaced from each other in the transverse direction. Each connecting tent body is connected between one of two adjacent first tent canvases at the rear end of a front one of two adjacent tents and one of the two first tent canvases at the front end of a rear one of the two adjacent tents. Each connecting tent includes a passageway extending in the longitudinal direction and connected between the first access opening at the rear end of the front one of two adjacent tents and the first access opening at the front end of the rear one of the two adjacent tents.
