DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0020] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the embodiments of the utility model clearer, the technical scheme in the embodiments of the utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Generally, the components of the embodiments of the utility model described and shown in the drawings here can be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

[0021] Example 1

[0022] An inflatable tent comprises an inflatable support column 2 and a tarpaulin 1, wherein the inflatable support column 2 is installed inside the tarpaulin 1, the inflatable support column 2 is arc-shaped, and there are four in total, which are arranged at equal intervals. A protective structure is installed on the two outermost inflatable support columns 2, and the protective structure comprises a first circular arc support rod 3 and a second circular arc support rod 4 which are hinged to each other. A reinforcing connecting piece is installed in the protective structure, and the reinforcing connecting piece comprises a first semi-tubular connecting rod 5 and a second connecting rod 6 which are hinged to each other. The first connecting rod 5 and the second connecting rod 6 are respectively hinged to the first circular arc support rod 3 and the second circular arc support rod 4 through a hinged base, and the maximum expansion angle of the first connecting rod 5 and the second connecting rod 6 is 180°. The first arc support rod 3 and the second arc support rod 4 are hinged to protect the inflatable support column 2 at the edge, and a limit treatment is performed at the hinged end to ensure that the first connecting rod 5 and the second connecting rod 6 cannot be further unfolded when they are unfolded to an arc state, thereby having higher stability. Secondly, the first connecting rod 5 and the second connecting rod 6 are used as auxiliary supports. When the first arc support rod 3 and the second arc support rod 4 are unfolded to an arc shape, the unfolding angle of the first connecting rod 5 and the second connecting rod 6 is exactly 180°.

[0023] The outer ends of the first arc support rod 3 and the second arc support rod 4 are provided with support plates 7, and fixed piles 8 are provided on the support plates 7. After the erection is completed, the fixed piles 8 are driven into the ground to complete the fixation.

[0024] The support plate 7 extends to the inside of the protective structure, and a locking assembly is provided at the position of the support plate 7 located inside the protective structure. A reinforcing rib 9 is hinged on the hinged base, and the end of the reinforcing rib 9 away from the hinged base is fixed to the support plate 7 through the locking assembly. The locking assembly includes a locking bolt 12 and a locking hole 13 provided on the end of the reinforcing rib 9 away from the hinged base. The reinforcing rib 9 cooperates with the first connecting rod 5 and the second connecting rod 6 to form a stable structure to enhance the strength of the protective structure.

[0025] A fixed block 10 is installed on the first connecting rod 5 and the second connecting rod 6, respectively. A tension spring 11 is connected between the fixed blocks 10. When the protective structure of the tent is folded up, the tension spring 11 assists in folding, which saves effort. Magnetic blocks are arranged on the opposite sides of the two groups of reinforcing ribs 9, which are used to automatically close the two groups of reinforcing ribs 9 when the protective structure is folded up.

[0026] The middle parts of the first connecting rod 5 and the second connecting rod 6 are provided with a lock head and a lock column for fixing the protective structure when it is retracted. After fixing, the protective structure is stable when it is carried.

[0027] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. For those skilled in the art, the present invention may be subject to various modifications and variations. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
