Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a tent, and more particularly to a top structure of a tent. Background Art
[0002] As an outdoor leisure product, tents are widely used in various occasions. Common tent brackets are generally composed of multiple groups of vertical poles connected to top poles. The top poles form the top support, and the adjacent vertical poles are connected to the retractable side brackets. The tent roof includes multiple top poles, the inner ends of which are respectively pivoted to a top connector located in the center of the tent. Since the top poles have a certain length and a certain height when unfolded, when the tent is unfolded, the unfolding process of each top pole may not be smoothly unfolded synchronously, and a certain amount of manpower is required to support and assist. In addition, after the top poles of the tent are unfolded, the top ends are only connected by a top connector, which is easy to deform or fold inward after being subjected to external forces (such as strong winds or water accumulation on the tent roof). The support of the top of the tent is unstable, affecting the normal use of the tent. This case arises from this. Utility Model Content

[0026] In order to further explain the technical solution of the present utility model, the present utility model is described in detail below through specific embodiments.
[0027] Combination Figures 1 to 7As shown, the utility model discloses a tent top structure, the tent includes a plurality of vertical poles 1 and a top pole 2, the inner ends of the top poles 1 are respectively pivoted on the top connecting member 3 located in the center of the tent, in this embodiment, there are 4 vertical poles 1 and 4 top poles 2, and a side pole group 10 that can be deployed and retracted is connected between adjacent vertical poles 1, and in this embodiment, the side pole group is a cross support pole group. The vertical pole 1 may include an outer sleeve and an inner sleeve to facilitate folding into a small volume. The top pole 2 may include an inner pole 21 and an outer pole 22 pivoted in the middle, and the inner pole 21 and the outer pole 22 can be deployed upward to support or folded downward in the middle, so as to cooperate with the deployment support to form the tent top surface and the overall folding of the tent.
[0028] In the utility model, in order to enable the tent top support of the tent frame pole to cooperate with a push-up action when unfolded, and to make each top pole more stable after unfolding, a first reinforcing rod 4 is pivoted on one side close to the inner end of each top pole 2, which can be arranged near the middle position of the inner rod 21 of the top pole 2 in this embodiment, and the inner end of each first reinforcing rod 4 is pivoted to a lower connecting member 5, and each first reinforcing rod 4 is also pivoted to a second reinforcing rod 6, and the inner end of the second reinforcing rod is pivoted to a middle connecting member 7, and the top connecting member 3, the middle connecting member 7, and the lower connecting member 5 are coaxially arranged from top to bottom. The first reinforcing rod 4 is in a supporting state with a low inner end and a high outer end when unfolded, and the second reinforcing rod 6 is in a supporting state with a high inner end and a low outer end when unfolded. The top connecting member 3, the middle connecting member 7 and the lower connecting member 5 are respectively provided with radially arranged pivot grooves for pivoting the top rod 2, the first reinforcing rod 4 and the second reinforcing rod 6. The second reinforcing rod 6 is supported on the first reinforcing rod 4. The first reinforcing rod 4 and the second reinforcing rod 6 can be gathered together when the top of the tent is folded.
[0029] In order to make the first reinforcing rod and the second reinforcing rod cooperate to be folded when the top of the tent is folded, a telescopic rod group 8 that can be stretched and retracted is connected between the middle connecting member 7 and the lower connecting member 5 to drive the first reinforcing rod 4 to unfold and fold along with the top rod 2. At the same time, the telescopic rod group is also provided with a locking component that can be positioned when retracted and released when stretched. The telescopic rod group stretched downward can drive the lower connecting member 5 to move downward after being released, so that the first reinforcing rod 4 is folded downward; and the lower connecting member 5 pushed upward can drive the stretching component to retract and position, so that each first reinforcing rod 4 and the second reinforcing rod 6 are supported below the center of the unfolded tent, which helps to open the top of the tent and makes the support and fixation of the top of the tent more stable.
[0030] Specifically, the telescopic rod assembly 8 may include an inner telescopic tube 81 and an outer telescopic tube 82, wherein the upper end of one of the inner telescopic tube or the outer telescopic tube is fixed to the middle connecting member, the lower end of the other is connected to the lower connecting member, and the inner telescopic tube is sleeved in the outer telescopic tube. Figures 5 to 10As shown, in this embodiment, the upper end of the inner telescopic tube 81 is fixed to the middle connecting member 7, and the lower end of the outer telescopic tube 82 is connected to the lower connecting member 5. When the telescopic rod group is extended, the inner telescopic tube 81 is on the top and the outer telescopic tube 82 is on the bottom, and the lower end of the inner telescopic tube 81 cannot be disengaged from the upper end of the outer telescopic tube 82. The locking assembly may include a snap 83 installed in the inner telescopic tube 81, and the inner telescopic tube 81 is provided with an inner opening 811 at a position corresponding to the snap 83. When the tent top is in the unfolded locking position, the outer telescopic tube is provided with an outer opening 821 at a position corresponding to the snap. When the tent top is unfolded, the snap 83 can pass through the inner opening 811 and be positioned with the outer opening 821, locking the telescopic rod group to lock the tent in the unfolded state. When the tent is folded, when the outer telescopic tube 82 and the inner telescopic tube 81 are relatively sleeved, the snap 83 is forced to be compressed and retracted in the inner telescopic tube to release the lock. The snap buckle 83 may include a U-shaped elastic suspension piece 831 fixedly installed in the inner telescopic tube 81. The free end of the elastic suspension piece 831 is provided with a protrusion 832 corresponding to the inner opening to realize outward protrusion or retraction. The protrusion 831 passes through the inner and outer openings to lock the tent in the unfolded state.
[0031] In this embodiment, the lower end of the outer telescopic tube 82 passes through the lower connecting member 5 to form an extension section 822, and a push-pull handle 9 that can slide up and down is connected to the extension section 822. The push-pull handle 9 can drive the outer telescopic tube 82 to slide up and down. The push-pull handle 9 forms an inner cavity 90 on the outer side of the extension section 822, and a stopper is also provided inside the push-pull handle 9 and is located in the inner cavity 90. The outer opening 821 is located on the extension section 822, and the push-pull handle 9 pushed upward can drive the outer telescopic tube 82 to slide upward, drive the outer opening 821 to slide and correspond to the inner opening 811, and the spring buckle 83 can pass through the inner opening 811 and the outer opening 821 and enter the inner cavity to lock and position, positioning the tent in the unfolded state.
[0032] When the push-pull handle 9 is pulled downward, the push-pull handle 9 moves downward in the extension section (such as Figure 6 , Fig. 9 As shown in FIG. 1 ), the stopper can push the spring buckle 83 inward to rebound to the inner opening. After the positioning is released, the outer telescopic tube 82 can slide relative to the inner telescopic tube 81, driving the first reinforcing rod 4 to retract, and the tent is unlocked. In this embodiment, the stopper is a stopper 91 convexly arranged at the upper end of the inner cavity 90, and the stopper 91 abuts against the outer side of the outer telescopic tube, combined with Figures 8 to 10As shown, the push-pull handle 9 sliding up and down in the extension section 822 can drive the stopper 91 to press against the spring buckle 83 to push the spring buckle 83 back to the inner opening 811. In this embodiment, the lower section of the stopper 91 forms a lower inclined guide surface extending downward and tilted inward, so that the protrusion 832 in the spring buckle 83 can pop out or retract along the lower guide inclined surface. Of course, the stopper can be in other forms, such as a resilient button arranged at a corresponding spring buckle position, the outer end of the button protrudes outside the push-pull handle, and the inner end is placed in the cavity without interfering with the spring buckle. When the button is pressed, the inner end of the button can press inward against the spring buckle to push the spring buckle back to the inner opening.
[0033] Since the push-pull handle 9 first slides relative to the extension section 822 when driving the outer telescopic tube to slide up and down, a limit assembly is provided on the extension section 822 to limit the push-pull handle 9 after sliding. In this embodiment, the limit assembly may include a rivet 92 that locks the push-pull handle to the extension section and a slide groove 93 provided on the side of the push-pull handle. The rivet 92 protrudes from the push-pull handle and is limited to slide up and down in the slide groove 93, thereby limiting the relative sliding distance between the push-pull handle and the outer telescopic tube (such as Figure 5 , Figure 6 changes shown).
[0034] When the tent pole of the utility model is used, it is combined with Figures 1 to 4 As shown, when the tent is unfolded, each top pole 2 of the tent is unfolded along with the vertical pole 1 and the side pole group 10, and the inner pole 21 of the top pole 2 is unfolded upward. Fig.10 As shown, when unfolding the top of the tent, the push-pull handle 9 is pushed upward, the top rod 2, the first reinforcing rod 4, and the second reinforcing rod 6 are spread open, the middle connecting piece 7 and the lower connecting piece 5 move upward, and the inner and outer telescopic tubes 81, 82 of the telescopic rod group 8 slide relatively. As the outer telescopic rod 82 below is pushed upward, the spring buckle 83 in the inner telescopic rod 81 moves downward in the outer telescopic rod 82 until the protrusion 832 of the spring buckle 83 pops out and is positioned when the inner and outer openings 811, 821 overlap, thereby achieving locking. The triangular support structure formed by the first reinforcing rod 4, the second reinforcing rod 6 and the telescopic rod group 8 achieves positioning, thereby improving the stability of the top of the tent. When the top of the tent is folded, the push-pull handle 9 is pulled down, and the locking assembly in the telescopic rod group is unlocked during the downward movement of the push-pull handle 9 (the protrusion 832 is pushed back into the inner opening 821 by the stopper 91), and the outer telescopic tube 82 moves down with the push-pull handle 9 to the extension limit of the telescopic rod group 8, thereby linking the first reinforcing rod 4, the second reinforcing rod 6 and the top rod 2 to achieve centralized folding, and the middle connecting member 7, the lower connecting member 5 and the top connecting member 3 move down and finally retract against the inner side of the folded top rod until it is fully folded (see Figure 4 ), can be expanded and folded synchronously with the expansion and contraction of the tent top pole, without affecting the folding action and folding volume of the tent, and is easy to use.
[0035] The above embodiments and drawings do not limit the product form and style of the present utility model. Any appropriate changes or modifications made by ordinary technicians in the relevant technical field should be deemed to be within the patent scope of the present utility model.
