Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application relates to a counterweight positioning structure, in particular to a counterweight positioning structure of an inflatable tent. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the progress of society and the improvement of people's living standards, traditional tents have been unable to meet the needs of the public and have gradually been replaced by outdoor inflatable tents, which are increasingly recognized and welcomed by people. There are significant differences between support tents and inflatable tents: support tents are rigid, stable and suitable for making large tents; while inflatable tents are light in weight, small in carrying volume, convenient to transport and erect. After installation, the inflatable tent is often fixed by steel pegs, traction ropes and heavy pressure with sandbags on both sides of the inflatable tent. According to calculations, under normal circumstances, the amount of sand required for counterweight for an inflatable tent with a span of 10m and a length of more than 20m will not be less than 10 tons, making it difficult to install in the wild.

[0003] To solve the above-mentioned problems of large counterweight and difficult installation, the Chinese invention patent CN20202053465 specification discloses an automatic inflatable tent, which can realize counterweight positioning by filling heavy objects in multiple counterweight bags.

[0004] However, the size of the above-mentioned counterweight bag is fixed, and the carrying capacity of the counterweight bag is generally configured according to the maximum capacity. When the tent installation area is windless or located in a small wind area, the amount of counterweight sand applied is small, while the carrying capacity of the counterweight bag is large at this time, so that the sand entering the counterweight bag is loose and difficult to gather force, resulting in a small local extrusion force and easy displacement, which affects the stability of the inflatable tent and poses a certain safety hazard. That is, the existing counterweight bag cannot adapt to different installation environments of the inflatable tent.

[0008] In the above-mentioned counterweight positioning structure of the inflatable tent, the internal space of the self-adjusting counterweight bag can be adjusted through the self-adjusting supports, so that the filled counterweights can be in an aggregated state when the inflatable tent is installed in different environments, thereby making the local stress larger than that of the tent placed on the ground and the positioning effect of the inflatable tent better.

[0009] As a further improvement of the application, the poly-strip rod is a hard and fixed structure, the fold-gap strip is a flexible structure filled with sponge inside, and the gap adjusting strip is fixedly embedded in the sponge.

[0010] As a further improvement of the application, the gap adjusting strip comprises a plurality of fold rod bags and a magnetic positioning rod connected between adjacent two fold rod bags, and the parts of the gap adjusting strip connected with the poly-strip rods are fold rod bags.

[0011] As a further improvement of the application, the magnetic positioning rod comprises a positioning rod and a sealing rod piece fixedly embedded in the middle part of the positioning rod, the positioning rod is a hard structure, the sealing rod piece is made of a magnetic material, and the fold rod bag is a sealed bag structure filled with air inside.

[0012] As a further improvement of the application, the magnetic poles of the sealing rod pieces on the two gap adjusting strips of the same poly-strip rod are opposite to each other.

[0013] As another improvement of the application, the end parts of the adjacent two poly-strip rods are fixedly connected with reinforcing rods, the middle part of the reinforcing rod is provided with an offset self-measuring positioning module, and the offset self-measuring positioning module is connected with a mobile terminal signal.

[0014] As a further improvement of the application, the offset self-measuring positioning module comprises a pressure sensor located above the middle part of the reinforcing rod and a self-measuring jack movably penetrating through the middle part of the reinforcing rod, the upper middle part of the reinforcing rod is fixedly connected with two connecting rods, the upper ends of the two connecting rods are fixedly connected with a top plate, the pressure sensor is installed in the middle part of the lower end surface of the top plate, and the self-measuring jack is located directly below the pressure sensor.

[0015] As a supplement to the further improved application, the self-test top rod comprises a movable T-shaped lower convex rod penetrating the reinforcing rod and two limiting ropes penetrating the transverse end of the T-shaped lower convex rod, and the lower end of the limiting rope is fixedly connected with the reinforcing rod.

[0016] As a supplement to the further improved application, the limiting rope is of elastic structure, and the height of the limiting rope when kept vertical is lower than the lower surface of the pressure sensor.

[0017] In summary, in the counterweight positioning structure of the above-mentioned inflatable tent, the internal space of the self-adjusting counterweight bag is adjusted by the self-adjusting support, so that the filled counterweights can be in an aggregated state when the inflatable tent is installed in different environments, thereby making the local stress greater than that of the flat placement, and the positioning effect of the inflatable tent is better. In addition, in cooperation with the offset self-measuring positioning module, the mobile terminal forms a positioning information under normal circumstances, and the positioning signal disappears after loosening or dumping. The user can determine whether the self-adjusting counterweight bag is loose or abnormal according to the existence or nonexistence of the signal point, so as to adjust in time, effectively ensure the stability of the inflatable tent, and reduce the safety hidden danger.

[0034] The polybar 11 is a hard and fixed structure, the fold strip 12 is a flexible structure with sponge filled inside, and the adjusting strip 6 is fixedly embedded in the sponge, so that the position of the adjusting strip 6 in the fold strip 12 is relatively fixed, and the stability is higher, and the sponge is not easy to affect the bending of the fold strip 12 and affect the adjustment of the gap surrounded by the plurality of fold strips 12.

[0035] The adjusting gap strip 6 comprises a plurality of folding rod capsules 62 and magnetic positioning rods connected between adjacent two folding rod capsules 62, and the parts connected with the poly-strip rod 11 at both ends of the adjusting gap strip 6 are the folding rod capsules 62, the magnetic positioning rod comprises a positioning rod 611 and a sealing rod piece 612 fixedly embedded in the middle of the positioning rod 611, the positioning rod 611 is a hard structure, the sealing rod piece 612 is made of magnetic material, and the folding rod capsule 62 is a sealed capsule structure with air saturated filled in the inside, so that the adjusting gap strip 6 has a plurality of bending points, and the ends close to the poly-strip rod 11 are close to each other and are adsorbed by the magnetic sealing rod piece 612 when being bent at different bending points, so that the adjustment of the gap surrounded by the self-adjusting support in the middle is realized, and the internal space of the self-adjusting counterweight capsule formed by the outer peripheral layer 2 is adjustable, so as to adapt to different installation environments of the tent when being inflated.

[0036] The magnetic poles of the ends close to each other of the sealing rod pieces 612 on the two adjusting gap strips 6 on the same poly-strip rod 11 are opposite to each other, so that the magnetic positioning rods close to the poly-strip rod 11 can be close to each other and adsorbed after the two adjusting gap strips 6 on the same poly-strip rod 11 are bent, and the space surrounded by the plurality of folding gap strips 12 is fixed.
