[0043] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The tent assembly 100 of the embodiment of the utility model is installed on the top of the vehicle 200, and the tent assembly 100 includes a mounting seat 10, a tent body 20, a reel 40, a shielding member 50 and a first driving device 60. The mounting seat 10 is installed on the top of the vehicle 200; the tent body 20 includes a first part 21 and a second part 22 arranged on the first part 21, the first part 21 is arranged on the mounting seat 10, and the second part 22 is provided with a photovoltaic panel 30; the reel 40 is arranged on the second part 22; the shielding member 50 is connected to the reel 40; the first driving device 60 is electrically connected to the photovoltaic panel 30, and when the tent body 20 is folded, the first driving device 60 drives the reel 40 to rotate to retract the shielding member 50.
[0044] In the tent assembly 100 of the embodiment of the utility model, the shielding member 50 is rolled up by using the reel 40, which reduces the space occupied by the shielding member 50 after the tent body 20 is folded, making the overall structure of the tent assembly 100 compact. In addition, the automatic rolling function of the shielding member 50 is realized by the electrical connection between the first drive device 60 and the photovoltaic panel 30. This automatic operation reduces the manual operation during the folding and unfolding of the tent body 20, and improves the convenience of use.
[0045] Furthermore, since the photovoltaic panel 30 can convert solar energy into electrical energy, the tent assembly 100 can utilize this clean energy to power the first driving device 60, thereby achieving energy self-sufficiency and reducing dependence on external power sources.
[0046] Specifically, the mounting base 10 may be a fixed structure on the tent assembly 100 connected to the top of the vehicle 200. The mounting base 10 may be adapted to the shape of the top of the vehicle 200. The mounting base 10 may be directly connected to the top of the vehicle 200 by welding, bolts or other fasteners, or may be indirectly connected to the top of the vehicle 200 by a fixing fixture or bracket, to ensure that the tent body 20 can be firmly mounted on the vehicle 200.
[0047] The tent body 20 refers to the part of the tent assembly 100 that provides the main function of the tent. The tent body 20 is used to provide space for shelter or accommodation for users in the unfolded state. The first part 21 can be made of flexible materials such as canvas, nylon, waterproof polyester, etc.
[0048] The first part 21 of the tent body 20 can be folded or unfolded. When the functions of sheltering or accommodation are needed, the first part 21 can be unfolded. When the functions of sheltering or accommodation are not needed, the first part 21 can be folded. The first part 21 can be set on the mounting base 10 by buckles, zippers, Velcro or other fastening methods. In one embodiment, a plurality of ventilation windows 210 can be opened on the first part 21 to allow users to enter or provide ventilation.
[0049] The second part 22 of the tent body 20 can be a bracket or a frame for mounting the photovoltaic panel 30 or other components. The second part 22 can be made of light alloy, plastic or carbon fiber and other materials. The second part 22 can form the outer contour of the tent body 20 with the first part 21, and form a containing space of the tent body 20 for users to move around.
[0050] The first part 21 may include the side and bottom of the tent body 20. The second part 22 may include the top of the body. The first part 21 and the second part 22 may be connected by bonding, or by a zipper, a buckle or other connection methods. The second part 22 may be arranged horizontally or tilted to meet the needs of the photovoltaic panel 30.
[0051] The photovoltaic panel 30 is used to convert solar energy into electrical energy, and the photovoltaic panel 30 can be arranged on the second part 22 through connecting components such as a frame and a clamp. The photovoltaic panel 30 can be different types of solar energy conversion devices such as monocrystalline silicon, polycrystalline silicon or thin-film solar cells, and photovoltaic panels 30 of different efficiencies and sizes can be selected as needed.
[0052] The reel 40 is a device for reeling in and releasing the shielding member 50. The reel 40 may be a solid or hollow shaft, and the reel 40 and the second portion 22 may be connected by bolt connection, clamping, etc. The rotation of the reel 40 may be achieved by the first driving device 60.
[0053] The shielding member 50 may be a sunshade, a rain awning or other forms of coverings, which are used to provide additional sunshade, rainproof and windproof functions. The shielding member 50 may be made of the same material as the first part 21, or may be made of different materials. For example, the shielding member 50 and the first part 21 may both be made of flexible materials such as canvas, nylon, and waterproof polyester.
[0054] The connection between the shielding member 50 and the reel 40 can be clamped, bonded or mechanically fixed. For example, the reel 40 can be hollow, and a plurality of clamping devices can be provided inside the reel 40. These clamping devices can be made of durable plastic and metal, and are shaped like small clips, which can clamp and fix the edge of the shielding member 50.
[0055] The reel 40 can rotate clockwise or counterclockwise around its own axis to achieve the reeling and releasing of the shielding member 50. For example, when the reel 40 rotates clockwise, the shielding member 50 rotates with it and is wound on the outer surface of the reel 40 to achieve the reeling of the shielding member 50. For another example, when the reel 40 rotates counterclockwise, the shielding member 50 rotates with it and is separated from the outer surface of the reel 40 to achieve the release of the shielding member 50.
[0056] In order to prevent the process of the reel 40 rolling up the shielding member 50 from interfering with the process of the tent body 20 folding up, the reel 40 may be spaced apart from the first portion 21 .
[0057] During the process of folding the tent body 20 , as the second portion 22 moves toward the mounting seat 10 , the first portion 21 is folded, and the first driving device 60 drives the reel 40 to retract the shielding member 50 .
[0058] The first drive device 60 may be a DC motor, a stepper motor or other types of electric drive devices, or may be a pneumatic motor or other types of pneumatic drive devices. For example, the first drive device 60 is a DC motor, and the drive shaft of the DC motor is connected to the rotating shaft of the reel 40 to drive the reel 40 to rotate. An energy storage battery or a power conversion circuit may be provided between the first drive device 60 and the photovoltaic panel 30 so that the electric energy provided by the photovoltaic panel 30 can be effectively used.
[0059] In one embodiment, the shielding member 50 is made of high-strength waterproof and heat-insulating fabric, and the reel 40 is designed as a silent electric shaft with a self-locking function. The first drive device 60 is a small DC motor driven by the electricity generated by the photovoltaic panel 30. When the shielding member 50 needs to be retracted, the drive device can be activated by a simple switch or remote control signal to drive the reel 40 to rotate, so that the shielding member 50 is automatically retracted and wound on the reel 40.
[0060] See also Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7In some embodiments, the second part 22 includes a first mounting surface 220 and a second mounting surface 221, the first mounting surface 220 is opposite to the second mounting surface 221, the mounting seat 10 includes a third mounting surface 11, the third mounting surface 11 is arranged opposite to the second mounting surface 221, the photovoltaic panel 30 is arranged on the first mounting surface 220, the reel 40 is arranged on the second mounting surface 221, one end of the first part 21 is arranged on the second mounting surface 221, and the other end of the first part 21 is arranged on the third mounting surface 11. When the tent body 20 is in a folded state, the first part 21 and the reel 40 are both located between the second mounting surface 221 and the third mounting surface 11.
[0061] Thus, a more compact layout is formed by providing the third mounting surface 11 on the mounting seat 10 and providing the first mounting surface 220 and the second mounting surface 221 on the second portion 22. This layout allows the first portion 21 and the reel 40 to be located between the second mounting surface 221 and the third mounting surface 11 when the tent body 20 is in the folded state, further reducing the space occupied by the shielding member 50.
[0062] Specifically, the first mounting surface 220 and the second mounting surface 221 are both outer surfaces of the second part 22. The shape of the second part 22 can be a regular shape such as a prism or a prism, or an irregular shape. For example, the second part 22 is a prism, and the first mounting surface 220 and the second mounting surface 221 can be the upper surface and the lower surface of the prism, respectively. The photovoltaic panel 30 is arranged on the first mounting surface 220, and can effectively receive sunlight and perform photoelectric conversion.
[0063] The second mounting surface 221 can provide a stable mounting base for the reel 40, so that the reel 40 remains stable during the process of retracting the shielding member 50. The second mounting surface 221 and the first part 21 can be connected by buckles, zippers, Velcro or other fastening methods.
[0064] The third mounting surface 11 may be a base plane for mounting the tent body 20, and the third mounting surface 11 may be located on the top of the mounting seat 10. The third mounting surface 11 and the first part 21 may be connected by buckles, zippers, Velcro or other fastening methods.
[0065] During the folding of the tent body 20 , the second mounting surface 221 moves toward the third mounting surface 11 , the first portion 21 is folded, and the reel 40 reels the shielding member 50 , so that the first portion 21 and the reel 40 are finally located between the second mounting surface 221 and the third mounting surface 11 .
[0066] See also Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 7In some embodiments, the tent assembly 100 also includes a first support member 70 and a second drive device 80 connected to the first support member 70, the first support member 70 is arranged on the third mounting surface 11, the second drive device 80 is electrically connected to the photovoltaic panel 30, when the tent body 20 is in the unfolded state, the first support member 70 is supported on the second mounting surface 221, when the tent body 20 is folded, the second drive device 80 drives the first support member 70 to rotate toward the third mounting surface 11, when the tent body 20 is in the folded state, the first support member 70 is located between the second mounting surface 221 and the third mounting surface 11.
[0067] In this way, the first support member 70 is supported on the second mounting surface 221 when the tent body 20 of the tent assembly 100 is unfolded, which helps to provide additional stability and support during the use of the tent assembly 100, reduce the shaking or deformation of the tent caused by wind or other external forces, and ensure the stability of the photovoltaic panel 30 and the reel 40 set on the second part 22.
[0068] In addition, during the folding process of the tent body 20, the second driving device 80 drives the first support member 70 to rotate toward the third mounting surface 11, which reduces manual operation and improves the convenience of use. When the tent body 20 is in the folded state, the first support member 70 is located between the second mounting surface 221 and the third mounting surface 11, which reduces the space occupied by the first support member 70 after the tent body 20 is folded, which helps to reduce the space occupied by the tent assembly 100 as a whole, making the tent assembly 100 more compact.
[0069] In addition, since the photovoltaic panel 30 can convert solar energy into electrical energy, the tent assembly 100 can use this clean energy to power the second driving device 80, thereby achieving energy self-sufficiency and reducing dependence on external power sources.
[0070] Specifically, the first support member 70 can be arranged on the third mounting surface 11 by welding, threaded connection, etc. The first support member 70 can be supported on the edge area of the second mounting surface 221 to provide a larger accommodation space for the first part 21. In order to prevent the rotation process of the first support member 70 from interfering with the folding process of the tent body 20, the first support member 70 can be spaced apart from the first part 21.
[0071] The first support member 70 and the second mounting surface 221 may be movably matched. In one embodiment, the portion of the first support member 70 that contacts the second mounting surface 221 may be designed as a spherical surface or provided with a spherical structure, and a corresponding slide groove may be provided on the second mounting surface 221. In this way, during the process of unfolding or folding the tent body 20, the friction between the first support member 70 and the second mounting surface 221 is small, which is conducive to reducing the wear between the first support member 70 and the second mounting surface 221, thereby extending the service life of the first support member 70 and the second part 22.
[0072] The second drive device 80 may be a DC motor, a stepper motor or other types of electric drive devices, or may be a pneumatic motor or other types of pneumatic drive devices. For example, the second drive device 80 is a DC motor, and the drive shaft of the DC motor is connected to the first support member 70 to drive the first support member 70 to rotate. An energy storage battery or a power conversion circuit may be provided between the second drive device 80 and the photovoltaic panel 30 so that the electric energy provided by the photovoltaic panel 30 can be effectively used.
[0073] During the folding process of the tent, as the first part 21 is folded, the second driving device 80 drives the first support member 70 to rotate toward the third mounting surface 11, and the first support member 70 changes from a vertical arrangement when supporting the second mounting surface 221 to a horizontal arrangement, and is finally located between the second mounting surface 221 and the third mounting surface 11.
[0074] See also Figure 5 and Figure 7 In some embodiments, the first support member 70 includes a rotating seat 71 and a first rod 72, the rotating seat 71 is arranged on the third mounting surface 11, the first rod 72 is connected to the second driving device 80, and the first rod 72 is rotatably connected to the rotating seat 71. During the folding process of the tent body 20, the second driving device 80 drives the first rod 72 to rotate toward the third mounting surface 11. When the tent body 20 is in the folded state, the first rod 72 is located between the second mounting surface 221 and the third mounting surface 11.
[0075] In this way, the rotational connection between the first rod body 72 and the rotating seat 71 provides greater flexibility, allowing the first rod body 72 to rotate smoothly during the folding process, so as to reduce the space occupied by the first rod body 72 .
[0076] The first rod 72 is supported on the second mounting surface 221 when the tent body 20 is unfolded, which helps to provide additional stability and support during the use of the tent assembly 100, reduce the shaking or deformation of the tent caused by wind or other external forces, and ensure the stability of the photovoltaic panel 30 and the reel 40 set on the second part 22.
[0077] When the tent body 20 is in the folded state, the first rod body 72 is driven by the second driving device 80 to rotate toward the third mounting surface 11, and finally the first rod body 72 is located between the second mounting surface 221 and the third mounting surface 11, thereby reducing the space occupied by the first rod body 72 after the tent body 20 is folded. This helps to reduce the space occupied by the tent assembly 100 as a whole, making the tent assembly 100 more compact.
[0078] Specifically, the rotating seat 71 may include two oppositely arranged metal sheets with two connecting holes provided on the metal sheets. The first rod body 72 may be provided with a protrusion for inserting into the connecting hole. The protrusion can rotate relative to the connecting hole, thereby making the first rod body 72 rotate as a whole.
[0079] The first rod body 72 may include a first sub-rod body 720 and a second sub-rod body 721. The first sub-rod body 720 may be inserted in the second sub-rod body 721 and the first sub-rod body 720 may be retractable relative to the second sub-rod body 721. The retraction of the first sub-rod body 720 relative to the second sub-rod body 721 may be achieved by hydraulic drive.
[0080] During the unfolding process of the tent body 20, the first sub-rod 720 extends out from the second sub-rod 721, and the first sub-rod 720 and the second sub-rod 721 rotate together in a direction away from the third mounting surface 11 to drive the second part 22 to move and unfold the first part 21, and the first sub-rod 720 is finally supported on the second mounting surface 221.
[0081] During the folding process of the tent body 20, the first sub-rod body 720 is retracted into the second sub-rod body 721, and the first sub-rod body 720 and the second sub-rod body 721 rotate together toward the direction close to the third mounting surface 11. At this time, the second mounting surface 221 moves toward the third mounting surface 11, and the first sub-rod body 720 and the second sub-rod body 721 are finally located between the second mounting surface 221 and the third mounting surface 11.
[0082] See also Figure 7 and Figure 8 In some embodiments, the number of the first support members 70 is four, and the four first support members 70 are spaced apart, wherein two first support members 70 are located on one side of the tent body 20, and the other two first support members 70 are located on the other side of the tent body 20. When the tent body 20 is in an expanded state, the four first support members 70 are all supported on the second mounting surface 221. During the folding process of the tent body 20, the two first support members 70 located on the same side approach each other. When the tent body 20 is in a folded state, the four first support members 70 are all located between the second mounting surface 221 and the third mounting surface 11.
[0083] Thus, when the tent body 20 is in the unfolded state, the four first support members 70 act together on the second mounting surface 221, which helps to increase the support points between the first support members 70 and the second mounting surface 221, thereby distributing the load more evenly and reducing local stress concentration, so as to keep the second portion 22 stable.
[0084] During the folding of the tent, the two first support members 70 on the same side approach each other, and when the tent body 20 is in the folded state, the four first support members 70 are all located between the second mounting surface 221 and the third mounting surface 11. This reduces the space occupied by the four first support members 70 after the tent body 20 is folded, helps to reduce the space occupied by the tent assembly 100 as a whole, and makes the tent assembly 100 more compact.
[0085] In addition, the four first support members 70 provide a redundant design. Even if one of the first support members 70 fails, the other first support members 70 can still provide necessary support.
[0086] See also Figure 8 In one embodiment, the first support members 70 on both sides of the tent body are symmetrically distributed. This helps to maintain the balance of the second portion 22 and avoid tilting or deformation of the tent body 20 due to uneven force.
[0087] Specifically, the first support member 70 may include a first sub-support member, a second sub-support member, a third sub-support member, and a fourth sub-support member. The first sub-support member and the second sub-support member may be located at a first side of the length direction of the body. The third sub-support member and the fourth sub-support member may be located at a second side of the length direction of the body. The first sub-support member and the third sub-support member may form an axisymmetric structure with respect to the center line of the width direction of the body. The second sub-support member and the fourth sub-support member may form an axisymmetric structure with respect to the center line of the width direction of the body.
[0088] See also Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 7 In some embodiments, the tent assembly 100 further includes a storage box 90, which is disposed on the second portion 22 and spaced apart from the first portion 21, and the reel 40 is disposed in the storage box 90. When the tent body 20 is in a folded state, the storage box 90 is located between the second mounting surface 221 and the third mounting surface 11, and at least a portion of the shielding member 50 is accommodated in the storage box 90.
[0089] In this way, when the tent body 20 is in the folded state, the storage box 90 can protect the reel 40 and the shielding member 50 from damage by external environmental factors such as moisture, dust, etc., and extend the service life of the reel 40 and the shielding member 50. In addition, since the storage box 90 is spaced from the first portion 21, the process of the reel 40 rolling up the shielding member 50 will not interfere with the folding process of the tent body 20, thereby reducing the probability of the shielding member 50 being damaged during the folding process of the tent body 20, and improving the safety during use.
[0090] Specifically, the storage box 90 can be designed into different sizes and shapes according to actual needs to accommodate different sizes of the reel 40 and the shielding member 50. The inner wall of the storage box 90 can be provided with a bearing, a hole or a groove connected to the reel 40, and the storage box 90 can provide a stable support for the reel 40. The storage box 90 can be arranged on the second part 22 by bolt connection, welding, etc.
[0091] During the folding process of the tent body 20, the storage box 90 moves toward the mounting seat 10 following the second part 22, and at least part of the shielding member 50 is rolled into the storage box 90 under the action of the reel 40. The storage box 90 containing the reel 40 and at least part of the shielding member 50 is finally located between the second mounting surface 221 and the third mounting surface 11.
[0092] See also Figure 4 and Figure 5 In some embodiments, the storage box 90 is provided with an opening 91 , and the shielding member 50 includes a main body 51 and a covering portion 52 . When the tent body 20 is in a folded state, the main body 51 is accommodated in the storage box 90 , and the covering portion 52 covers the opening 91 .
[0093] In this way, the covering portion 52 can cover the opening 91 of the storage box 90 when the tent body 20 is in the folded state, thereby preventing dust, moisture and other external impurities from entering the storage box 90 and protecting the reel 40 and the main body 51 of the shielding member 50 .
[0094] Specifically, in order to reduce the probability of interference between the process of the reel 40 rolling up the shielding member 50 and the process of folding the tent body 20 , a through hole may be opened on the side of the storage box 90 away from the first part 21 to form an opening 91 .
[0095] The main body 51 can be made of a flexible material such as canvas, nylon, waterproof polyester, etc., so as to facilitate the reeling of the reel 40. The cover portion 52 can be made of hard plastic or light alloy, and a snap-fit structure can be provided between the cover portion 52 and the storage box 90 so that the cover portion 52 can stably cover the opening 91. For example, the inner wall of the storage box 90 can be provided with a snap-fit groove, which can be distributed around the circumference of the opening 91, and the cover portion 52 can include a snap-fit block, which can be snapped into the snap-fit groove.
[0096] See also Fig. 9 and Fig.10 In some embodiments, the tent assembly 100 also includes a second support member 101, the second support member 101 includes a second rod body 1010, a third rod body 1011 and a pivot 1012, the second rod body 1010 is connected to the first driving device 60, the second rod body 1010 and the third rod body 1011 are connected through the pivot 1012, and the second rod body 1010 and the third rod body 1011 are both connected to the shielding member 50.
[0097] When the tent body 20 is in a folded state, the second support member 101 is accommodated in the storage box 90; when the tent body 20 is unfolded, the second rod 1010 is driven by the first driving device 60 to move away from the storage box 90, so as to drive the third rod 1011 to rotate away from the second rod 1010 with the pivot 1012 as the rotation axis, and the second rod 1010 and the third rod 1011 jointly support the shielding member 50; when the tent body 20 is folded, the second rod 1010 is driven by the first driving device 60 to move close to the storage box 90, so as to drive the third rod 1011 to rotate toward the second rod 1010 with the pivot 1012 as the rotation axis.
[0098] Thus, when the tent is in the folded state, the second support member 101 is accommodated in the storage box 90, which reduces the space occupied by the second support member 101 and makes the overall structure of the tent assembly 100 compact. The storage box 90 can protect the second support member 101 from damage by external environmental factors such as moisture, dust, etc., and extend the service life of the second support member 101.
[0099] In addition, the second rod 1010 is driven by the first driving device 60 to automatically move away from or approach the storage box 90, driving the third rod 1011 to rotate, thereby realizing automatic folding and releasing of the covering member 50, which reduces the user's manual operation during the unfolding and folding of the tent body 20 and improves the convenience of use.
[0100] In addition, through the coordinated use of the second rod 1010 and the third rod 1011, and the setting of the pivot 1012, a stable supporting structure is formed. When the tent body 20 is in the unfolded state, the second rod 1010 and the third rod 1011 can firmly support the shielding member 50, which provides additional safety protection for the shielding member 50, prevents the shielding member 50 from accidentally collapsing, and improves the stability of the shielding member 50.
[0101] Specifically, the second support member 101 can be disposed below the shielding member 50, and the second support member 101 can be in the shape of a long strip, and the surface of the second support member 101 extending along its length direction can be connected to the shielding member 50, and the connection method can be bonding, sewing, etc. The second support member 101 can be made of materials such as aluminum alloy, carbon fiber or high-strength plastic.
[0102] The second rod 1010 is a part of the second support member 101, and is used to transmit the power of the first driving device 60, and as a part of supporting the shielding member 50. The second rod 1010 and the first driving device 60 can be connected by a mechanical joint, a buckle or other fixing device to ensure effective transmission of force, and at the same time, the second rod 1010 can be stable when supporting the shielding member 50.
[0103] The first driving device 60 can drive the rotation of the reel 40 and the second rod 1010. The first driving device 60 can be a planetary gear system, which can achieve output in two different directions. A sun gear can be connected to the reel 40 to make it rotate; and one or more planetary gears can be connected to the second rod 1010 through their axis, so that the second rod 1010 can rotate in different directions.
[0104] The pivot 1012 is a joint connecting the second rod 1010 and the third rod 1011, allowing the two rods to rotate around it. The pivot 1012 can be a ball bearing, a hinge bearing or other types of rotating joints to adapt to different load and movement requirements.
[0105] The third rod 1011 is used to work in conjunction with the second rod 1010 to support the shielding member 50 when the tent body 20 is in the unfolded state, and to assist in rolling up the shielding member 50 when the tent body 20 is in the folded state. The lengths of the second rod 1010 and the third rod 1011 can be fixed or retractable to accommodate tents of different sizes. The second rod 1010 and the third rod 1011 can be designed as straight rods or with a curved shape to accommodate different support requirements and the shape of the tent assembly 100.
[0106] During the folding process of the tent body 20, the second part 22 moves toward the mounting base 10 and the first part 21 is folded. At this time, the first driving device 60 drives the reel 40 to reel in the shielding member 50, and synchronously drives the second rod body 1010 and the third rod body 1011 to approach the storage box 90. The second rod body 1010 and the third rod body 1011 will pull the shielding member 50 during the approaching process, thereby assisting in retracting the shielding member 50, and finally the shielding member 50, the second rod body 1010, the third rod body 1011 and the pivot 1012 are accommodated in the storage box 90.
[0107] The pivot 1012 connection mode allows the second rod 1010 and the third rod 1011 to rotate in different directions, thereby reducing wear and tear and improving the durability of the entire second support member 101 by dispersing the force.
[0108] See also Fig. 9 and Fig.10 In some embodiments, the number of the second rod bodies 1010 and the number of the third rod bodies 1011 are both two. When the tent body 20 is unfolded, the two second rod bodies 1010 move away from each other, and the two third rod bodies 1011 move away from each other. When the tent body 20 is folded, the two second rod bodies 1010 move toward each other, and the two third rod bodies 1011 move toward each other.
[0109] In this way, the arrangement of the two second rods 1010 and the third rod 1011 can form a symmetrical structure, which helps to increase the support points to evenly distribute the support force, reduce local stress concentration, and keep the shielding member 50 stable during the unfolding of the tent body 20. In addition, through the coordinated action of the two rods, the unfolding and folding of the tent body 20 can be completed more quickly, improving the operating efficiency.
[0110] Specifically, in order to stably support the shielding member 50, the two second rods 1010 may form an axisymmetric structure about the center line of the shielding member 50, and the two third rods 1011 may also form an axisymmetric structure about the center line of the shielding member 50. The two second rods 1010 may have the same shape and structure, and the two third rods 1011 may have the same shape and structure.
[0111] When the tent body 20 is in the unfolded state, the distance between the two second rods 1010 can gradually decrease from the storage box 90 to the pivot 1012, and the distance between the two third rods 1011 can gradually increase from the pivot 1012 to the end of the third rod 1011 away from the pivot 1012, so that the shape formed by the two second rods 1010 and the two third rods 1011 can stably support the shielding member 50.
[0112] When the tent body 20 is in the folded state, the two third rods 1011 can be respectively attached to the corresponding second rods 1010 , which can reduce the space occupied by the second rods 1010 and the third rods 1011 , making the overall structure of the tent assembly 100 compact.
