[0032] The present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the drawings and embodiments. It can be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the relevant utility model and do not limit the utility model. It should also be noted that, for the sake of convenience of description, only the parts related to the utility model are shown in the drawings.
[0033] It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments in the present utility model and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other. The present utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings and embodiments.
[0034] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5 , an embodiment of the present utility model provides a connecting member for a tent support rod, which includes a connecting portion 1, a first connecting head 2, a second connecting head 3, an angle adjusting assembly 4 and a locking assembly 5. The first connecting head 2 is rotatably connected to one end of the connecting portion 1, and the second connecting head 3 is rotatably connected to the other end of the connecting portion 1; wherein, a first inner cavity for inserting a support rod is provided in the first connecting head 2 and the second connecting head 3, and openings are provided at the ends of the first connecting head 2 and the second connecting head 3 far from the connecting portion 1, and the support rod is inserted into the corresponding first inner cavity of the first connecting head 2 or the second connecting head 3 through the opening and fixed;
[0035] The angle adjusting assembly 4 includes an adjusting screw rod 41 penetrating through the center of the connecting portion 1. The adjusting screw rod 41 is rotatably connected to the connecting portion 1. An adjusting block 42 is sleeved on the outer surface of the adjusting screw rod 41 in a threaded manner. One end of the adjusting block 42 is hinged to a first connecting rod 43, the other end of the first connecting rod 43 is hinged to the first connecting head 2, the other end of the adjusting block 42 is hinged to a second connecting rod 44, and the other end of the second connecting rod 44 is hinged to the second connecting head 3, which is used to adjust the included angle between the first connecting head 2 and the second connecting head 3; the locking assembly 5 is arranged on the connecting portion 1 and can be inserted into the adjusting screw rod 41 to make the adjusting screw rod 41 in a locked state.
[0036] Specifically, under the limitation of the first connecting rod 43 and the second connecting rod 44, when the adjusting screw rod 41 rotates, the adjusting block 42 can only move along the axis direction of the adjusting screw rod 41 and does not rotate with the adjusting screw rod 41;
[0037] When it is necessary to adjust the angle between the first connector 2 and the second connector 3, manually rotate the adjusting screw rod 41. The rotation of the adjusting screw rod 41 drives the adjusting block 42 to move along the axis direction of the adjusting screw rod 41, changing the position of the adjusting block 42. Driven by the first connecting rod 43 and the second connecting rod 44, the first connector 2 and the second connector 3 rotate relative to the connecting part 1, thereby changing the angle between the first connecting part 2 and the second connecting part 3. Subsequently, insert the locking assembly 5 into the adjusting screw rod 41 to fix the adjusting screw rod 41, preventing the adjusting screw rod 41 from rotating due to external force and changing the angle between the first connector 2 and the second connector 3, so that the angle between the first connecting part 2 and the second connecting part 3 remains fixed. This application can adjust the angle between the first connector 2 and the second connector 3 according to the angle requirements of the support rods during actual installation, making the connectors of this application universal. When any connector of the tent is damaged or lost, the connectors of this application can be used for connection to complete the construction of the tent, with high practicality. Moreover, the angle adjustment range between the first connector 2 and the second connecting sleeve 3 of the connectors of this application is 60° - 180°. The angles of the two support rods installed using the connectors of this application can be adjusted arbitrarily between 60° - 180°. All the connections of the support rods of the entire tent can also be selected with the connectors of this application to avoid the tent being unable to be constructed due to the damage or loss of any specific connector.
[0038] In a preferred embodiment, as Figure 3 shown, grooves 11 are formed at both ends of the connecting part 1, and rotating rods are fixedly arranged in the grooves 11. The ends of the first connector 2 and the second connector 3 close to the connecting part 1 are rotatably connected to the rotating rods.
[0039] In a preferred embodiment, as Figure 4 and Figure 5 shown, a second inner cavity 12 is formed in the center of the connecting part 1. The adjusting screw rod 41 rotates through the second inner cavity 12, and a threaded hole is also formed in the connecting part 1;
[0040] The locking component 5 includes a locking rod 51 that passes through the threaded hole in a threaded manner. A plurality of fixing grooves 411 that match the locking rod 51 are evenly formed on the outer surface of the adjusting screw rod 41 along its circumferential direction. The locking rod 51 can extend into the second inner cavity 13 and be inserted into the fixing groove 411. Specifically, the adjusting screw rod 41 is rotated through a bearing. The locking rod 51 is a threaded rod, and the threaded rod is threadedly connected to the threaded hole. When installing the support rod, rotate the adjusting screw rod 41 to make the angle between the first connecting head 2 and the second connecting head 3 reach the installation requirement. After the angle is adjusted, insert the locking rod 51 into the threaded hole, and rotate the locking rod 51 to make it extend into the second inner cavity 13 and be inserted into the corresponding fixing groove 411 to lock the adjusting screw rod 41, so as to prevent the adjusting screw rod 41 from being rotated by an external force and changing the angle between the first connecting head 2 and the second connecting head 3, so that the angle between the first connecting head 2 and the second connecting head 3 is adjusted to a suitable size and then remains fixed, and the connected support rod is kept stable.
[0041] In a preferred embodiment, as Figure 4 and Figure 5 shown, a fixing cylinder 45 is fixedly sleeved on the outer surface of the adjusting screw rod 41. A plurality of through holes are evenly formed on the outer surface of the fixing cylinder 45 along its circumferential direction. The through holes are arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the fixing grooves 411. Specifically, after the angle between the first connecting head 2 and the second connecting head 3 is adjusted to a suitable position according to the installation requirement, rotate the locking rod 51 so that its end sequentially passes through the threaded hole and the through hole and is inserted into the corresponding fixing groove 411 to lock the adjusting screw rod 41. The fixing cylinder 45 is fixedly sleeved on the outer surface of the adjusting screw rod 41, and the through holes are arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the fixing grooves 411, which increases the length of the insertion and fixation of the locking rod 51, improves the locking effect of the locking rod 51, and further improves the stability of the connecting member after adjusting the angle.
[0042] In a preferred embodiment, as Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, a rotating handle is provided at one end of the adjusting screw rod 41. It is convenient to rotate the adjusting screw rod 41.
[0043] In a preferred embodiment, as Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, a limiting plate 6 is provided at one end of the adjusting screw rod 41 away from the rotating handle. The setting of the limiting plate 6 can prevent the adjusting block 42 from moving excessively and falling off the adjusting screw rod 41.
[0044] Working principle:
[0045] When it is necessary to adjust the angle between the first connector 2 and the second connector 3 according to the angle between two support rods, manually rotate the rotating handle to drive the adjusting screw 41 to rotate. Under the limitation of the first connecting rod 43 and the second connecting rod 44, the adjusting block 42 moves along the axis direction of the adjusting screw 41, and the position of the adjusting block 42 changes. Then, the first connector 2 and the second connector 3 rotate relative to the connecting part 1, so that the angle between the first connecting part 2 and the second connecting part 3 changes. Subsequently, rotate the locking rod 51, and its end penetrates through the threaded hole and the through hole in sequence and then inserts into the corresponding fixing groove 411 to lock the adjusting screw 41, so as to avoid the adjusting screw 41 being rotated by an external force and changing the angle between the first connector 2 and the second connector 3, and keep the angle between the first connecting part 2 and the second connecting part 3 fixed after adjustment; The connector of the present application has universality. When any connector of the tent is damaged or lost, the connector of the present application can be used for connection to complete the construction of the tent, and the practicability is relatively high.
