Benefits of technology

"The present invention provides a one-touch type foldable tent that overcomes the problems of conventional art. The tent has a center connection assembly that allows for easy operation and simultaneous unfolding of all poles. The frame poles have a properly bent state when the tent is unfolded and installed. The tent is assembled and operated easier by improving the structure of the pole joint part. The fabrication cost is lower. The tent is convenient to use and fast folded. The pole support part has a hinge shaft support protrusion and a vertical through hole for receiving the shaft part of the compression plate. The center connection assembly includes a lifting and lowering member and a mounting releasing member. The tent cloth is installed in a way that rings are engaged to the poles. The invention provides a one-touch type foldable tent that is easier to assemble, operate, and unfold."

Problems solved by technology

In the problems of the foldable poles, the joint part bites the tent cloths when the joint part is unfolded.
Therefore, the tent cloths may be damaged, and the life span gets decreased.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD [0001] The present invention relates to a one-touch type foldable tent, and in particular to an improved one-touch type foldable tent in which the whole poles are concurrently folded and unfolded based on an operation of a connection assembly in such a manner that a connection assembly is provided at an upper center of a tent for folding and unfolding the poles, and the upper sides of the poles are hinged at a center connection assembly. BACKGROUND ART [0002] Generally, a tent is formed of a cloth connecting a bottom, a lateral side and an upper side, and poles for supporting the same. The tent has been widely used as equipment for sleeping during a leisure activity such as camping, mountain climbing, finishing, etc. and for preventing rain and wind and direct sunlight. [0003] The tent is classified into various types based on an installed structure, a folding method and a frame structure. Recently, the use of a one-touch type foldable tent increases with its improve...
