Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of tent technology, specifically to an emergency inflatable tent with an integrated inflation and deflation system. Background Technology

[0002] In emergency rescue, field operations, and disaster response scenarios, inflatable tents serve as rapidly deployable temporary shelters, and their performance directly impacts rescue efficiency and personnel safety. However, existing emergency inflatable tents generally suffer from several technical shortcomings: their inflation and deflation systems are mostly separate designs, relying on manual operation of the inflation pump and deflation valve, resulting in low inflation efficiency and insufficient pressure control precision, making them unable to respond to environmental changes in real time; their inflatable frames often use single-chamber structures, meaning that the rupture of a single air column can lead to overall collapse, resulting in weak risk resistance; and their internal environment control relies on manual window opening or external equipment, making it difficult to maintain a dynamic balance of temperature, humidity, and air quality. Therefore, there is an urgent need for an integrated, intelligent, and highly reliable emergency inflatable tent technology solution. Summary of the Invention

[0003] To overcome the shortcomings of existing technical solutions, this invention provides an integrated inflation and deflation system for emergency inflatable tents, which can effectively solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] An integrated inflation / deflation system emergency inflatable tent, comprising:

[0006] The inflatable frame system includes interconnected inflatable base frames and portal-shaped inflatable beams. The air chambers are equipped with reinforcing ribs for reasonable pressure distribution. Both the inflatable base frames and the portal-shaped inflatable beams adopt a concealed design, which is completely embedded in the tent fabric interlayer and not exposed on the tent surface, thus balancing structural stability and overall appearance.

[0007] The tent fabric covers the outside of the inflatable frame system to form the main body of the tent; the tent fabric adopts a double-layer structure design, with heat insulation and cold protection material filling between the two layers to form a sealed heat insulation cavity to block the transfer of heat between the inside and outside.

[0008] An integrated inflation and deflation system is provided, which integrates a miniature high-pressure inflation pump, a deflation valve, a pressure sensor, and a controller. The inflation pump is connected to the inflation frame system through an air circuit. The pressure sensor is used to monitor the internal air pressure of the inflation frame system in real time. The controller is configured to control the start and stop of the inflation pump and the deflation valve based on the data signal from the pressure sensor.

[0009] As a further description of the above technical solution, the inflatable frame system adopts a multi-chamber redundant design, which consists of multiple independent inflatable columns. Each column is connected by an air passage but has independent sealing, so that when a single column ruptures, the remaining columns can still maintain structural support.

[0010] As a further description of the above technical solution, the controller is also configured to:

[0011] Receive signals from the ambient wind speed sensor;

[0012] When the ambient wind speed exceeds a preset threshold, the air pump is automatically activated to replenish the air frame system with air to increase the internal air pressure and enhance the overall wind resistance of the tent.

[0013] As a further description of the above technical solution, it also includes an intelligent environmental control system, which comprises:

[0014] Temperature and humidity sensors and CO2 concentration sensors are used to monitor the environment inside the tent;

[0015] A ventilation device, comprising a blower, an air inlet damper, an exhaust damper, and a rollable window screen, wherein the window screen is opened and closed and fixed by a female and a female adhesive strip;

[0016] The controller is electrically connected to a temperature and humidity sensor, a CO2 concentration sensor, and a ventilation device, and is configured to automatically adjust the opening of the intake damper and the exhaust damper based on sensor data.

[0017] As a further description of the above technical solution, the intelligent environmental control system also integrates a heater and a gas-heat circulation chamber. The controller can automatically start and stop the heater based on temperature sensor data to adjust the temperature inside the tent.

[0018] As a further description of the above technical solution, an energy system is also included, comprising flexible solar thin-film batteries and a detachable energy storage battery box; the flexible solar thin-film batteries are respectively laid on both sides and the top of the tent, arranged in 2-3 arrays, each array consisting of three independent thin-film batteries, and each array and the battery blocks within the array adopt a foldable design to adapt to the tent's storage path and facilitate folding and storage; the flexible solar thin-film batteries are electrically connected to the energy storage battery box to power the micro high-pressure air pump, controller, sensor and lighting equipment.

[0019] As a further description of the above technical solution, the tent is equipped with a modular functional interface, including a Velcro area and hanging points pre-installed on the inner wall of the tent fabric, for attaching storage bags, lighting lamps or medical equipment brackets.

[0020] As a further description of the above technical solution, the bottom of the tent is designed with a sloping drainage channel to guide and drain accumulated water, preventing rainwater from accumulating at the bottom of the tent.

[0021] As a further description of the above technical solution, it also includes an emergency warning unit, which includes an LED warning light strip located outside the tarpaulin, and the controller can control the LED warning light strip to switch to SOS flashing mode.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0023] The integrated inflation / deflation system of the present invention provides an emergency inflatable tent that has at least one of the following beneficial effects during use:

[0024] The integrated inflation and deflation system, combined with a miniature high-pressure air pump, enables rapid setup and takedown by a single person, significantly improving emergency response efficiency. The inflatable frame features a multi-chamber redundant design and a bracing pressure-distributing structure, along with an adaptive air replenishment function linked to wind speed, maintaining structural stability in extreme weather conditions and preventing collapse risks due to single-point failure. The intelligent environmental control system, through multi-sensor linkage, automatically adjusts temperature, humidity, CO2 concentration, and ventilation status. Combined with heating and gas-thermal circulation functions, it maintains a comfortable internal microclimate in harsh environments such as high temperature, high humidity, and extreme cold, making it particularly suitable for medical rescue scenarios. The combination of flexible solar thin-film batteries and energy storage batteries achieves energy self-sufficiency, eliminating dependence on external power sources. Modular functional interfaces allow for rapid expansion into medical and storage functions, while the SOS mode of the LED warning light strip enhances rescue visibility in emergency scenarios. The overall solution significantly improves the reliability, adaptability, and practicality of the emergency inflatable tent. Attached Figure Description

[0029] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0030] like Figure 1-2 As shown, the present invention provides an integrated inflation / deflation system for an emergency inflatable tent, comprising:

[0031] An inflatable frame system 1 includes an inflatable base frame 102 and a portal-shaped inflatable beam frame 103 that are interconnected, and the air chamber is provided with a tie rod 105 for reasonable pressure distribution.

[0032] Both the inflatable base frame 102 and the portal-shaped air beam frame 103 adopt a concealed design, completely embedded within the interlayer of the tent fabric 101, and not exposed on the tent surface, thus balancing structural stability and overall appearance.

[0033] A tarpaulin 101 covers the outside of the inflatable frame system 1 to form the main body of the tent;

[0034] An integrated inflation and deflation system 2 integrates a miniature high-pressure inflation pump 202, a deflation valve 203, a pressure sensor 205, and a controller 204. The inflation pump is connected to the inflatable frame system 1 through an air passage 201. The pressure sensor 205 is used to monitor the internal air pressure of the inflatable frame system 1 in real time. The controller 204 is configured to control the start and stop of the inflation pump and the deflation valve 203 based on the data signal from the pressure sensor 205.

[0035] In this embodiment, after the user issues an inflation command, the controller 204 starts the miniature high-pressure air pump 202, which inflates the interconnected inflatable base 102 and portal-shaped inflatable beam 103 through the air passage 201. The tension ribs 105 inside the inflatable frame will evenly distribute the air pressure, causing the air column to expand and support the tent fabric 101 to form the main body of the tent.

[0036] Pressure sensor 205 monitors the internal air pressure of the frame in real time. When the air pressure is lower than the first preset value, controller 204 automatically starts the air pump to replenish air and maintain the stability of the basic structure. If the ambient wind speed sensor detects that the wind speed exceeds the threshold, controller 204 will automatically increase the target pressure to the second preset value, thereby increasing the overall wind resistance of the tent by increasing the internal air pressure.

[0037] The inflatable frame adopts a multi-chamber independent sealing design. When a single air column ruptures, the remaining air columns can still maintain support and prevent the tent from collapsing as a whole.

[0038] The intelligent environmental control system 4 achieves automatic adjustment of the environment inside the tent through multi-sensor linkage: temperature and humidity sensor 405 and CO2 concentration sensor 406 collect environmental data inside the tent in real time; when the CO2 concentration is too high or the temperature and humidity are overloaded, the controller 204 automatically adjusts the opening of the air intake damper 402 and the exhaust damper 403, and starts the blower 404 to accelerate air exchange; the window screen 401 can be quickly opened and closed with Velcro, taking into account both ventilation and insect prevention needs; if the temperature is lower than the preset value, the controller 204 starts the heater, and achieves uniform heating inside the tent through the air-heat circulation bag.

[0039] The flexible solar thin-film battery 302 on the outer surface of the tarpaulin 101 converts solar energy into electrical energy, which is stored in a removable energy storage battery box 301. The energy storage battery provides continuous power to the miniature high-pressure air pump 202, controller 204, various sensors, LED warning light strip 104, and lighting equipment, enabling self-powered operation in emergency scenarios without external power. The LED warning light strip 104 on the outside of the tarpaulin 101 is centrally managed by the controller 204 and can be switched to SOS flashing mode in emergencies, emitting a distress signal through a standardized flashing frequency to improve visibility in wilderness or disaster scenarios.

[0040] The integrated miniature high-pressure air pump 202 in this embodiment can inflate the tent in a short time. Combined with its integrated design, it can be set up and packed away by a single person, significantly improving emergency response efficiency. The multi-chamber structure prevents single-point failure, and the tension ribs 105 evenly distribute air pressure, ensuring structural stability even in extreme weather. Through the linkage control of wind speed and air pressure, the tent can automatically adjust its internal air pressure according to the ambient wind speed, improving wind resistance without manual intervention in strong winds. Real-time control of temperature, humidity, and CO2 concentration, combined with efficient ventilation and heating functions, can maintain a comfortable internal microclimate in harsh environments such as high temperature, high humidity, and extreme cold, making it particularly suitable for medical rescue and field operations. The combination of flexible solar thin-film batteries 302 and energy storage batteries eliminates dependence on external power sources, ensuring continuous system operation in the field or during power outages caused by disasters. Pre-installed Velcro areas and hanging points on the tent's inner walls allow for the quick addition of storage bags, medical supports, and other functional modules to meet the personalized needs of different emergency scenarios.

[0041] The quick-assembly emergency inflatable tent includes the following steps:

[0042] Inflation Start-up Steps: Receive the user's inflation command, start the micro high-pressure air pump 202, and inflate the inflatable frame system 1 until the first preset pressure value is reached;

[0043] Pressure monitoring steps: The internal air pressure of the inflatable frame system 1 is continuously monitored by pressure sensor 205;

[0044] Adaptive adjustment steps:

[0045] When the pressure sensor 205 detects that the air pressure is lower than the first preset pressure value, the air pump is automatically started to replenish the air.

[0046] The system receives ambient wind speed data. When the ambient wind speed exceeds a preset wind speed threshold, it automatically adjusts the target pressure value to a higher second preset pressure value and controls the air pump to work until the second preset pressure value is reached.

[0047] Furthermore, the inflatable frame system 1 adopts a multi-chamber redundant design, consisting of multiple independent inflatable columns. Each column is connected by an air passage 201 but has independent sealing, so that the remaining columns can still maintain structural support when a single column ruptures.

[0048] The inflatable frame system 1 adopts a multi-chamber redundant design, consisting of multiple independent inflatable columns. These columns are interconnected via air passages 201, and each column has an independent sealing structure. If one column ruptures and leaks air due to an accident, its sealing structure prevents the leak from spreading to other columns. The remaining intact columns maintain their air pressure, thus continuously providing structural support for the tent and ensuring that the tent structure does not collapse.

[0049] Furthermore, the controller 204 is also configured to:

[0050] Receive signals from the ambient wind speed sensor;

[0051] When the ambient wind speed exceeds a preset threshold, the air pump is automatically activated to replenish the air frame system 1 with air to increase the internal air pressure and enhance the overall wind resistance of the tent.

[0052] The controller 204 has a built-in wind speed linkage control program that can receive wind speed data transmitted from the environmental wind speed sensor in real time and compare this data with a preset wind speed threshold. When the detected environmental wind speed exceeds the preset threshold, the controller 204 will automatically trigger an air replenishment command, start the miniature high-pressure air pump 202, and replenish gas to the inflatable frame system 1 through the air passage 201 to increase the air pressure inside the frame. After the air pressure of the inflatable frame system 1 increases, its rigidity and deformation resistance are enhanced, thereby improving the overall wind resistance of the tent.

[0053] Furthermore, it also includes:

[0054] Intelligent environmental control system 4, which includes:

[0055] Temperature and humidity sensor 405 and CO2 concentration sensor 406 are used to monitor the environment inside the tent;

[0056] A ventilation device includes a blower 404, an air inlet damper 402, an exhaust damper 403, and a rollable window screen 401, which is opened and closed and fixed by a female and a female adhesive strip.

[0057] The controller 204 is electrically connected to the temperature and humidity sensor 405, the CO2 concentration sensor 406 and the ventilation device, and is configured to automatically adjust the opening of the intake damper 402 and the exhaust damper 403 based on the sensor data.

[0058] The intelligent environmental control system 4 is equipped with a temperature and humidity sensor 405 and a CO2 concentration sensor 406. These two types of sensors continuously collect temperature, humidity, and CO2 concentration data inside the tent and transmit the monitoring data to the controller 204 in real time. The controller 204 has built-in environmental threshold parameters. When the monitored data exceeds the preset threshold, the controller 204 will automatically send adjustment commands to the ventilation device to precisely adjust the opening of the air intake damper 402 and the exhaust damper 403. At the same time, it can start the blower 404 to accelerate the air circulation inside and outside the tent. The window screen 401 is fixed by the adhesion and separation of the female and female adhesive strips. When open, it can work with the ventilation device to achieve efficient air exchange, and when closed, it can play a role in preventing insects and sand.

[0059] Furthermore, the intelligent environmental control system 4 also integrates a heater and a gas-heat circulation chamber. The controller 204 can automatically start and stop the heater based on temperature sensor data to regulate the temperature inside the tent.

[0060] The intelligent environmental control system 4 integrates a heater and a gas-heated circulation chamber on the original basis. Temperature sensors collect temperature data inside the tent in real time and transmit it to the controller 204. When the temperature is lower than the preset comfortable temperature threshold, the controller 204 automatically starts the heater. The heat generated by the heater is evenly diffused inside the tent through the gas-heated circulation chamber, achieving a rapid increase in the temperature inside the tent. When the temperature reaches the preset threshold, the controller 204 automatically turns off the heater to prevent the temperature from becoming too high.

[0061] Furthermore, it also includes:

[0062] Energy system 3 includes a flexible solar thin-film battery 302 integrated on the outer surface of the tarpaulin 101 and a detachable energy storage battery box 301.

[0063] The flexible solar thin-film batteries 302 are laid on both sides and the top of the tent, and are set up in 2-3 arrays. Each array consists of three independent thin-film batteries. Each array and the battery blocks in the array adopt a foldable design to adapt to the tent storage path and facilitate folding and storage.

[0064] The flexible solar thin-film battery 302 is electrically connected to the energy storage battery box 301 and is used to power the micro high-pressure air pump 202, controller 204, sensor and lighting equipment.

[0065] Energy system 3 consists of flexible solar thin-film batteries 302 and a detachable energy storage battery box 301. The flexible solar thin-film batteries 302 are integrated into the outer surface of the tent fabric 101, which can fully receive sunlight and convert solar energy into electrical energy, which is then stored in the energy storage battery box 301 through electrical connection. As the core power supply unit, the energy storage battery box 301 provides stable power support for the tent's miniature high-pressure air pump 202, controller 204, various sensors, and lighting equipment, ensuring the normal operation of each system.

[0066] Furthermore, the tent is equipped with modular functional interfaces, including Velcro areas and hanging points pre-installed on the inner wall of the tent fabric 101, for attaching storage bags, lighting fixtures, or medical equipment brackets.

[0067] The inner wall of the 101 tent fabric features pre-installed Velcro areas and hanging points, forming a modular functional interface. In actual use, storage bags, lighting fixtures, medical equipment brackets, and other functional components can be quickly attached to these interfaces using Velcro or hooks, expanding the tent's functionality to suit different scenarios.

[0068] Furthermore, the bottom of the tent is designed with sloping drainage channels to guide and drain accumulated water, preventing rainwater from accumulating at the bottom of the tent.

[0069] The tent bottom features a sloping drainage channel design, with the channel angled along a predetermined drainage direction. When rainwater or stagnant water comes into contact with the tent bottom, gravity causes the water to flow along the slope of the drainage channel towards the predetermined drain outlet, eventually draining it out of the tent and preventing water from accumulating at the bottom.

[0070] Furthermore, it also includes an emergency warning unit, which includes an LED warning light strip 104 located outside the tarpaulin 101. The controller 204 can control the LED warning light strip 104 to switch to SOS flashing mode.

[0071] The LED warning light strip 104 of the emergency warning unit is installed outside the tarpaulin 101 and is electrically connected to the controller 204. In an emergency, the controller 204 can receive instructions or automatically trigger a mode switching program to control the LED warning light strip 104 to switch from the normal state to the SOS flashing mode, emitting light at the internationally recognized SOS distress signal flashing frequency to send out a conspicuous distress warning signal.

[0072] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that the invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from its spirit or essential characteristics. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered in all respects as exemplary and non-limiting, and the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description.
