The present invention belongs to the field of tents, and specifically relates to a tent framework and a tent.
With regard to a folding tent, reference can be made to a tent framework pole disclosed in Chinese Patent No. CN218406828U, which is composed of upright poles, tent top poles, an side pole group, diagonal braces and a tarpaulin, so that when the folding tent needs to be unfolded for use, the upright poles are separated outward to unfold the tent top poles and the side pole group, and the unfolded tent has a large inner space for use; and when the folding tent needs to be folded and stored, the upright poles are closed to the middle to fold the tent top poles and the side pole group, and the folded tent is compact and convenient to store.
Furthermore, an eave pole is provided on a top portion of the upright pole, where the top portion of the upright pole is relatively slidably arranged in a length direction of the eave pole through fit between a fixing seat and a pipe sleeve which are hinged to each other, and one end of the eave pole is relatively slidably arranged in a length direction of the diagonal brace through fit between a sliding sleeve and a connector which are hinged to each other. Therefore, in an unfolded state of a tent framework, the eave pole is flipped to be parallel to the tent top poles by driving one end of the eave pole upward along the length direction of the diagonal brace, and in this state, the extended eave pole is engaged with a tarpaulin to further increase the inner space of the tent.
The above-mentioned folding tent has disadvantages in that: the eave pole does not automatically flip to be parallel to the tent top pole, but needs to be manually flipped after the upright poles, the tent top poles and the diagonal brace are unfolded in place, which makes it inconvenient to use.
In view of the disadvantages of the prior art, it is an object of the present invention to provide a tent framework and a tent in which an extension pole is provided in three sections to be hinged to an auxiliary pole by a third pole section, and a first pole section extends in a desired extension direction as an outward extending pole.
As a first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a tent framework, including:
In an unfolded state, the first pole section is arranged to extend outward to extend out of a tent framework main body; and in a folded state, the extension pole is folded and accommodated in the tent framework main body.
As a second aspect of the present invention, there is provided a tent, including:
Here, each corner of the tarpaulin is supported by an extension pole in an unfolded state.
As a third aspect of the present invention, there is provided a tent framework, including:
In an unfolded state, the extension pole is arranged to extend outward to extend out of a tent framework main body; and in a folded state, the extension pole is folded and accommodated in the tent framework main body.
By adopting the above technical solutions, the following advantages are realized.
1. When the tent needs to be unfolded for use, the support poles are separated outward with the top connector as the center, so that the tent top poles are jointly flipped upward to lift the top connector; synchronously, when the support poles are separated outward, the tent side poles are synchronously unfolded and deformed to effectively connect two adjacent support poles; synchronously, one end of the auxiliary pole is flipped relative to the tent top pole and the other end is flipped while being slid relative to the support poles to move jointly so as to drive the third pole section to approach the extension seat, and synchronously, the third pole section is flipped relative to the auxiliary pole, so that the first pole section extends from the support hole and is flipped downward, and finally in the unfolded state, the tent top poles are locked and stably unfolded under the action of a locking structure, and at this time, the first pole section is flipped to a use position, so that the tent can be directly used without adjustment, making it more convenient, and since the extension pole moves in conjunction with other structures, the extension pole cannot move while the other structures remain fixed, thus ensuring stability.
2. When the tent needs to be folded for storage, locking of the tent top poles is released by the locking structure, and then the support poles are closed inward with the top connector as the center, so that the tent top poles are jointly flipped downward to lower the top connector; synchronously, when the support poles are closed inward, the tent side poles are synchronously folded and deformed to effectively connect two adjacent support poles; synchronously, one end of the auxiliary pole is flipped relative to the tent top pole and the other end is flipped while being slid relative to the support poles to move jointly so as to drive the third pole section to move away from the extension seat, and synchronously, the third pole section is flipped relative to the auxiliary pole, so that the extending first pole section moves towards the support hole to retract and flip upward, and finally in the folded state, the extension pole is basically folded between the support poles and the top connector to be accommodated in an area formed by the circumferential support poles and the tent side poles to achieve highly compact folding and accommodation; and similarly, since the extension pole moves in conjunction with other structures, the extension pole cannot move while the other structures remain fixed, thus ensuring stability.
3. The extension pole is divided into three sections, where the first pole section serves as an outward extending pole section, and the first pole section can reach a desired orientation position in the unfolded use state by means of a bending angle between the first pole section and the second pole section, where the third pole section serves as a pole section hinged to the auxiliary seat, and a movement track of the second pole section does not interfere with other structures during flipping from the folded state to the unfolded state by means of a bending angle between the third pole section and the second pole section, which further smoothens the flipping, where the second pole section serves as a bridge portion between the first pole section and the third pole section to connect two spatially misaligned pole sections; and the second pole section is respectively connected with the first pole section and the third pole section at an obtuse angle to ensure the decreased length of the extension pole under the condition that the third pole section has a suitable length, resulting in lower processing cost.

An upper side of the extension seat 8 is concavely arranged, and a support hole 821 is provided on the concave side of the extension seat 8, so that the extension pole 7 penetrates into the extension seat 8 from the support hole 821 and is restricted by the concave side of the extension seat 8 for stable fit and supporting, so that the extension pole 7 can be flipped and slid relative to the extension seat 8.
Specifically, the extension pole 7 includes a first pole section 71, a second pole section 72 and a third pole section 73 connected in sequence, the first pole section 71 is arranged at an obtuse angle to the second pole section 72, the second pole section 72 is arranged at an obtuse angle to the third pole section 73, and the first pole section 71 faces opposite to the third pole section 73 relative to the second pole section 72, where one end of the third pole section 73 is hinged with the auxiliary seat 61.
In the unfolded state, the first pole section 71 is arranged to extend outward.
In the folded state, the extension pole 7 is folded between the support pole 1 and the top connector 3.
Therefore, 1. when the tent needs to be unfolded for use, the support poles 1 are separated outward with the top connector 3 as the center, so that the tent top poles 2 are jointly flipped upward to lift the top connector 3; synchronously, when the support poles 1 are separated outward, the tent side poles 4 are synchronously unfolded and deformed to effectively connect two adjacent support poles 1; synchronously, one end of the auxiliary pole 6 is flipped relative to the tent top pole 2 and the other end is flipped while being slid relative to the support poles 1 to move jointly so as to drive the third pole section 73 to approach the extension seat 8, and synchronously, the third pole section 73 is flipped relative to the auxiliary pole 6, so that the first pole section 71 extends from the support hole 821 and is flipped downward, and finally in the unfolded state, the tent top poles 2 are locked and stably unfolded under the action of the locking structure 5, and at this time, the first pole section 71 is flipped to a use position, so that the tent can be directly used without adjustment, making it more convenient, and since the extension pole 7 moves in conjunction with other structures, the extension pole 7 cannot move while the other structures remain fixed, thus ensuring stability; 2. when the tent needs to be folded for storage, locking of the tent top poles 2 is released by the locking structure 5, and then the support poles 1 are closed inward with the top connector 3 as the center, so that the tent top poles 2 are jointly flipped downward to lower the top connector 3; synchronously, when the support poles 1 are closed inward, the tent side poles 4 are synchronously folded and deformed to effectively connect two adjacent support poles 1; synchronously, one end of the auxiliary pole 6 is flipped relative to the tent top pole 2 and the other end is flipped while being slid relative to the support poles 1 to move jointly so as to drive the third pole section 73 to move away from the extension seat 8, and synchronously, the third pole section 73 is flipped relative to the auxiliary pole 6, so that the extending first pole section 71 moves towards the support hole 821 to retract and flip upward, and finally in the folded state, the extension pole 7 is basically folded between the support poles 1 and the top connector 3 to be accommodated in an area formed by the circumferential support poles 1 and the tent side poles 4 to achieve highly compact folding and accommodation; and similarly, since the extension pole 7 moves in conjunction with other structures, the extension pole 7 cannot move while the other structures remain fixed, thus ensuring stability; and 3. the extension pole 7 is divided into three sections, where the first pole section 71 serves as an outward extending pole section, and the first pole section 71 can reach a desired orientation position in the unfolded use state by means of a bending angle between the first pole section and the second pole section 72, where the third pole section 73 serves as a pole section hinged to the auxiliary seat 61, and a movement track of the second pole section 72 does not interfere with other structures during flipping from the folded state to the unfolded state by means of a bending angle between the third pole section and the second pole section 72, which further smoothens the flipping, where the second pole section 72 serves as a bridge portion between the first pole section 71 and the third pole section 73 to connect two spatially misaligned pole sections; and the second pole section is respectively connected with the first pole section 71 and the third pole section 73 at an obtuse angle to ensure the decreased length of the extension pole 7 under the condition that the third pole section 73 has a suitable length, resulting in lower processing cost.
Here, in the folded state, a top height of the first pole section 71 is close to or slightly lower than a top height of the top connector 3, so that the extension pole 7 is completely folded and accommodated, preventing the extension pole 7 from partially protruding and affecting packaging and accommodation.
In other embodiments, the extension seat 8 is sheathed on one end of the tent top pole 2, and the upper end of the support pole 1 is hinged to the extension seat 8 by a pin to hinge the tent top pole 2 and the support pole 1.
In other embodiments, one end of the auxiliary pole 6 hinged to the tent top pole 2 can also be slid in a length direction of the tent top pole 2, and one end of the auxiliary pole 6 hinged to the support pole 1 is hinged at a fixed point without sliding in the length direction of the support pole 1. During folding of the structure, the end of the auxiliary pole 6 connected to the tent top pole 2 drives the first pole section 71 to retract into the support hole 821 by sliding on the tent top pole 2 in a direction away from the extension seat 8.
Here, the extension pole 7 is a metal pole formed by stamping and bending to facilitate processing.
Here, there are four support poles 1 in the present embodiment to form a tent with a square column shape at the bottom and a square cone shape at the top. In other embodiments, other numbers of support poles 1 may be provided to form tents of other shapes.
Preferably, the extension seat 8 in the present embodiment is provided at the top with a first connection position 81 for the tent top pole 2 to be hinged and a second connection position 82 for the extension pole 7 to fit, where the first connection position 81 and the second connection position 82 are horizontally staggered, that is, the support hole 821 is arranged offset from the tent top pole 2, so that a flipping track of the tent top pole 2 fitted to the first connection position 81 and a movement track of the extension pole 7 fitted to the second connection position 82 are staggered to interfere with each other in a complementary manner. In addition, the extension seat 8 is provided at the bottom with a third connection position 83 for being sheathed and fixed at a top end of the support pole 1, and the extension seat 8 are provided on both sides with two fourth connection positions 84 for one pole end of the tent side pole 4 to be hinged therein.
Preferably, the first pole section 71 in the embodiment extends in a direction parallel to the tent top pole 2 in the unfolded state and is arranged offset in close proximity, so that in the unfolded state, the first pole section 71 and the tent top pole 2 are combined to form a longer length in the same direction for flat support of the tarpaulin 9.
Preferably, in the unfolded state, a junction of the first pole section 71 and the second pole section 72 is located at the support hole 821, so that the length of the first pole section 71 reaches a minimum value for use, and thus when the length of the third pole section 73 is designed to also reach the minimum value for use, the length of the first pole section 71 and the third pole section 73 connected by the second pole section 72 is the minimum length that can be reached by the extension pole 7, which simplifies the overall structure.
Preferably, the first pole section 71 and the third pole section 73 in the present embodiment are arranged in parallel, resulting in a more orderly structure and further facilitating the processing.
Preferably, a first abutting portion 822 and a second abutting portion 823 are provided on the second connection position 82 in the present embodiment; and in the unfolded state, the first pole section 71 abuts against the first abutting portion 822 and the second pole section 72 abuts against the second abutting portion 823 to improve the support stability.
Preferably, in the folded state, an included angle between a length direction of the third pole section 73 and the length direction of the support pole 1 is α1, and an included angle between the length direction of the third pole section 73 and a length direction of the auxiliary pole 6 is α2, where α1≤10° and/or α2≤10°, so that angles of the folded third pole section 73, support pole 1 and auxiliary pole 6 are in a nearly parallel state, so that the structure is more orderly, and the third pole body 51 cannot easily interfere with the support pole 1 and the auxiliary pole 6.
Specifically, a sliding seat 11 is provided on the support pole 1 in the present embodiment, and the sliding seat 11 is sheathed on an outer periphery of the support pole 1 and slidable along the length direction of the support pole 1; while the upper end of the auxiliary pole 6 is hinged with the tent top pole 2, and the lower end thereof is hinged with the sliding seat 11 to be slidably arranged on the support pole 1 along with the sliding seat 11.
Preferably, the tent top pole 2 in the present embodiment includes a first pole body 21 and a second pole body 22, and one end of the first pole body 21 and one end of the second pole body 22 are hinged by a pin so as to be flipped to be unfolded or folded relative to each other; and accordingly, the support pole 1 is a telescopic pole. Therefore, in the unfolded state, the tent top pole 2 unfolds the first pole body 21 and the second pole body 22 to have an increased length, and the support poles 1 are stretched to have an increased length so as to increase an inner space of the tent formed by the combination; and in the folded state, the tent top pole 2 folds the first pole body 21 and the second pole body 22 to have a reduced length, and the support poles 1 shrink to have a reduced length to reduce the volume of the folded structure formed by the combination.
Preferably, a positioning member 23 is provided on one end of the first pole body 21 facing the second pole body 22, so that after the first pole body 21 and the second pole body 22 are unfolded relative to each other, a side wall of the second pole body 22 is restricted from further flipping by abutting against the positioning member 23, and at this time, length directions of the first pole body 21 and the second pole body 22 are arranged in parallel.
In addition, the locking structure 5 includes a third pole body 51, a fourth pole body 52 and a movable connector 53, where the movable connector 53 is located below the top connector 3, both ends of the third pole body are respectively hinged to the first pole body 21 and the movable connector 53, and both ends of the fourth pole body 52 are respectively hinged to the top connector 3 and the movable connector 53; and the fourth pole body 52 is a telescopic pole, or the fourth pole body 52 is detachably connected to the top connector 3 and/or the movable connector 53.
Therefore, when unfolding is desired, the first pole body 21 is lifted upward by the third pole 51 by moving the movable connector 53 upward toward the top connector 3. After unfolding in place, a fixed length of the fourth pole body 52 maintains a spacing between the top connector 3 and the movable connector 53 to keep the state locked.
Here, the fourth pole body 52 can be a telescopic pole to always connect the movable connector 53 and the top connector 3, gradually shorten in the process of unfolding the folded device, and be locked to position the movable connector 53 and the top connector 3 in a concave-convex snap-fit manner when reaching the unfolded state.
While the fourth pole body 52 is detachable, both ends of the fourth pole body 52 are connected to the top connector 3 and the movable connector 53 to be locked in the unfolded state, and the locking is released in a detachable manner, so that the fourth pole body 52 does not need to be always connected to the top connector 3 and the movable connector 53.
In other embodiments, the locking structure 5 may be formed in such a manner that the tent top pole 2 and the top connector 3 are snap-fitted, so that the tent top pole 2 is snap-fitted for locking when flipped to an unfolded position.
Here, the common concave-convex snap-fit may be realized by a V-shaped elastic buckle which is widely used in the field of tents for snap-fit and locking.
Here, the tent side pole 4 in the present embodiment is formed by combining and successively hinging three groups of X-arm assemblies 41, so that flipping of two pole bodies which are rotatable relative to each other by the X-arm assemblies 41 achieve an increase in a horizontal length when adjacent two support poles 1 are away from each other for adaptation, and achieve a decrease in the horizontal length when adjacent two support poles 1 are close to each other for adaptation, and multiple groups of X-arm assemblies can be combined to be adapted to support poles 1 with different unfolding requirements. The X-arm assembly 41 is composed of two poles hinged at the middle, and outer ends of the tent side poles 4 are provided with two pole ends which are formed by two pole ends of the X-arm assembly 41, and the two pole ends are hinged to the fourth connection position 84 and the sliding seat 11 respectively.
Here, the connection positions on the upper sides of both ends of the tent side pole 4 are hinged to the extension seat 8 by a pin for connection, and the connection positions on the lower sides are hinged to the sliding seat 11 by a pin for connection, and move synchronously along with the sliding of the sliding seat 11.
In other embodiments, different numbers of X-arm assemblies 41 can be combined to form the tent side pole 4.
Here, the auxiliary seat 61 includes a first connecting portion 611 fixedly connected with the auxiliary pole 6 and a second connecting portion 612 hinged to the third pole section 73; the second connecting portion 612 is U-shaped, and an U-shaped opening of the second connecting portion 612 is oriented perpendicular to the length direction of the auxiliary pole 6, and the second connecting portion 612 is provided with end openings 6121 on both sides along the length direction of the auxiliary pole 6; one end of the third pole section 73 is located inside the second connecting portion 612, and is hinged with two side walls of the second connecting portion 612 by pins; where during the transition between the unfolded state and the folded state, the third pole section 73 is flipped from one end opening 6121 of the second connecting portion 612 through the U-shaped opening of the second connecting portion 612 to the other end opening 6121 of the second connecting portion 612, so that the third pole section 73 has sufficient space during large-angle flipping through a reasonable structural arrangement.
Here, the first connecting portion 611 and the second connecting portion 612 are arranged in a misaligned manner on a rotation axis of the third pole section 73 relative to the auxiliary pole 6, so that the auxiliary pole 6 and the third pole section 73 can be misaligned and flipped without interference.
