[0002] Tents are mainly used for temporary outdoor use to shelter from wind and rain, block the sun or for temporary residence. All tents will have more than two legs, the purpose is to allow the tent to be shorter after folding, and the legs can be unfolded when opened to facilitate users to enter and exit the tent without being knocked down. Therefore, there will be a height adjustment structure on the legs of the tent, which is often set at the bottom of the outer legs, and then when it is folded up, the foot pad will be attached to the bottom of the height adjustment seat. In this way, when users open or put away the tent, the height adjustment seat will often be very close to the ground, and it is easy to get other things, especially foreign objects such as sand. Once sand enters the height adjustment mechanism or the gap between the upper and lower legs, it will cause the legs to be inflexible or even completely stuck and unable to retract, affecting the overall performance and service life of the tent. Summary of the invention

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the defects of the prior art and provide an improved telescopic pole for a tent.

[0030] The technical solution of the present invention is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. Example 1

[0031] See also Figures 7 and 8 The tent shown in the figure comprises a canopy frame 10 and a plurality of telescopic columns supported around and below the canopy frame 10. Here, four telescopic columns are provided. When the tent is folded, each telescopic column is folded along its own length direction, and the canopy frame 10 is folded, and all the folded telescopic columns are folded together.

[0032] See also Figures 1 to 6The telescopic column shown comprises an upper leg tube assembly and a lower leg tube assembly that can be slidably connected relative to each other, wherein the upper leg tube assembly at least comprises an upper leg tube 1 extending in the up-down direction, and the lower leg tube assembly at least comprises a lower leg tube 2 extending in the up-down direction and a foot pad 3 fixed to the bottom of the lower leg tube 2, and both the upper leg tube 1 and the lower leg tube 2 are hollow tubes with square cross-sections, and the upper leg tube 1 is slidably sleeved on the outer side of the lower leg tube 2. When the tent is unfolded, the upper leg tube 1 extends upward relative to the lower leg tube 2 to unfold; when the tent is folded, the upper leg tube 1 slides downward relative to the lower leg tube 2 and contracts to fold.

[0033] The top of the upper leg tube 1 is also fixedly provided with an upper fixing section 6, and the upper leg tube 1 is also slidably provided with a slider 7 for connecting with the rod on the tent frame. When the tent is unfolded and folded, the slider 7 slides up and down along the upper leg tube 1.

[0034] The telescopic column also includes a heightening seat 4 arranged on the lower leg tube 2, the heightening seat 4 is in a hollow cylindrical shape, and the heightening seat 4 is fitted on the lower leg tube 2 in a relatively fixed manner, and the heightening seat 4 is located above the foot pad 3. When the telescopic column is retracted, the upper leg tube assembly is supported on the heightening seat 4. In this way, after the tent is folded, the distance from the bottom of the upper leg tube assembly to the ground is raised, which prevents foreign matter such as sand from entering the interior of the upper leg tube assembly. At the same time, when the upper leg tube assembly slides down and retracts to the lowest position relative to the lower leg tube assembly, the heightening seat 4 can also provide the upper leg tube assembly with a buffer, thereby effectively protecting the various components on the telescopic column.

[0035] In this embodiment, the booster seat 4 and the foot pad 3 are integrally provided as a whole component. In specific configuration, the booster seat 4 and the foot pad 3 can be integrally formed of the same material. Figure 3 , Figure 6 As shown, the bottom periphery of the heightened seat 4 is connected to the foot pad 3, the lower leg tube 2 is inserted into the heightened seat 4, and its bottom end is supported on the foot pad 3, the top inner peripheral wall of the heightened seat 4 is tightly fitted on the outer wall of the lower leg tube 2, and the heightened seat 4 and the lower part of the lower leg tube 2 are relatively fixed by fasteners such as screws, so that the bottom pipe opening of the lower leg tube 2 is closed and foreign objects such as sand will not enter.

[0036] The telescopic column also includes a locking mechanism (not shown in the figure) for locking the upper leg tube assembly relative to the lower leg tube assembly. Figures 1 to 9 As shown, on the telescopic column, the upper leg tube assembly also includes a locking seat 5 fixed to the lower end of the upper leg tube 1, and the locking seat 5 is mainly used for installing some components in the above-mentioned locking mechanism and installing components for unlocking the above-mentioned locking mechanism.

[0037] The locking seat 5 is also hollow cylindrical, and its cross section is a square corresponding to the upper leg tube 1. The locking seat 5 is fixedly sleeved on the lower end of the upper leg tube 1, and the lower edge of the locking seat 5 is lower than the lower edge of the upper leg tube 1. When the telescopic column is in a retracted state, the locking seat 5 is supported on the height-enhancing seat 4, and the inner hole periphery of the bottom end of the locking seat 5 is located inside the outer periphery of the upper end surface of the height-enhancing seat 4, so that the inner hole of the bottom end of the locking seat 5 is closed, further preventing the entry of foreign matter such as sand. Example 2

[0038] See also Figures 10 to 13 As shown, the main difference between the telescopic column of this embodiment and the embodiment 1 is that the upper leg tube 1 and the lower leg tube 2 are both circular tubes, and the height-enhancing seat 4 and the foot pad 3 are separately arranged, and both are fixedly connected to the lower leg tube 2.

[0039] Specifically, the foot pad 3 has a pad body 31 supported on the ground, and a connecting end plug 32 extending upward from the upper part of the pad body 31. The connecting end plug 32 is fixed to the bottom of the lower leg tube 2 and closes the pipe opening of the lower leg tube 2. The bottom of the booster seat 4 is connected to the connecting end plug 32.

[0040] In summary, the telescopic poles of the tent of the present invention, wherein a raising seat 4 is added to the lower leg tube 2, so that after the upper leg tube assembly slides relative to the lower leg tube assembly and shortens its length, the upper leg tube assembly can be supported on the raising seat 4. This, on the one hand, raises the bottom end of the upper leg tube assembly to increase its distance from the ground, and on the other hand, blocks the raising seat 4 at the mouth of the bottom end of the upper leg tube assembly. In this way, when the user opens or folds the tent, the upper leg tube assembly will not be pressed against the ground, and is not easily stained with foreign matter such as sand, thereby preventing foreign matter such as sand from entering the gap between the upper and lower leg tubes or entering between the locking mechanisms therein, thereby preventing the telescopic poles from being inflexible in height adjustment or even getting stuck, thereby improving the overall performance and service life of the tent.

[0041] The above embodiments are only for illustrating the technical concept and features of the present invention, and their purpose is to enable people familiar with the technology to understand the content of the present invention and implement it accordingly, and they cannot be used to limit the protection scope of the present invention. Any equivalent changes or modifications made according to the spirit of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
