Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of tent components, in particular to a four-way joint component for a tent. Background Art

[0002] A tent is a shed propped up on the ground to provide shelter from wind, rain, and sunlight and for temporary living. It is mostly made of canvas and can be removed and moved at any time together with its supporting materials. It is flexible and convenient to use and is widely used in people's camping and picnics.

[0003] As people's needs for diversified usage environments emerge, the structural and functional uses of some components of existing tents also need to be further improved to be met. For example, the patent document with application number 202121429432.6 proposes "inserting the tent cloth through the through hole in the middle of the positioning block and tightening it in the plug hole with a plug, and then tightening the positioning block. When the positioning block and the connecting block are fitted, there is a lock inside the positioning block that locks the connecting block to limit the movement of the support foot under the rotating block. Conversely, when the user needs to adjust the position of the support foot, the positioning block is unscrewed to adjust the position of the support foot, and then the hook installed at the bottom of the connecting block is used to hang colored lights, night lights, etc. for lighting in the tent. The connecting parts and support rods connected up and down by the fixed block are used to facilitate installation and disassembly. During use, the structure can be simple and convenient for users to disassemble and install, which can solve the problem of inconvenience in disassembly and installation caused by the complex structure of the tent bracket and connecting parts."

[0004] It can be seen from the above-mentioned patent document that the flexibility of reciprocating installation and disassembly is improved by changing the four-way joint into a new structure with movable and adjustable connection. However, from a practical point of view, the four-way joint assembly and the connecting rod of the existing tent are reciprocatingly assembled and disassembled, and flexibility and convenience are not a problem. However, the gap between the two structures increases due to the reciprocating installation and disassembly, and the problem of unstable connection is relatively common, which still needs further improvement.
