[0040] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings so that the advantages and features of the present invention can be more easily understood by those skilled in the art. It should be noted that the description of these embodiments is intended to help understand the present invention, but does not constitute a limitation of the present invention.

[0041] Figures 1 to 8 The figures are drawn in true proportion. To keep the description concise, the proportions of each component are not listed one by one. However, the proportions and positions of each component should be considered as part of the content of this description.

[0042] The following embodiments relate to a foldable tent having Figure 1 The expanded state shown and Figure 6 Typically, the tent is a multifunctional shelter canopy with a frame top covered with a tarpaulin and open sides for ventilation and entry and exit.

[0043] Reference Figure 1As shown, the frame of the foldable tent includes a plurality of support legs 1, a plurality of external telescopic units 2, a plurality of internal telescopic units 3 and a center lock 4. The number of support legs 1 is at least 3, and can be 4, 5, etc. Each support leg 1 extends in the up and down direction, and the lower end is supported on the ground. The support legs 1 are preferably upright on the ground, and the lower ends of some support legs 1 are provided with rollers 11. After the tent is converted to a folded state, it can be rolled on the ground by the rollers 11, thereby facilitating the movement and transportation of the tent; the lower ends of some support legs 1 are provided with foot pads 12, and the foot pads 12 have horizontal plate-like components to provide stable support. The support legs 11 adopt a telescopic rod structure, including an upper rod and a lower rod that are mutually socketed, and the height of the support legs 11 can be adjusted. The external telescopic unit 2 is connected between the upper parts of adjacent support legs 1; for example, Figure 1 In the specific example shown, the tent is provided with external telescopic units 2 on all sides, front, back, left and right, serving as the eaves of the tent. The number of internal telescopic units 3 is the same as the number of support legs 1. The inner ends of the multiple internal telescopic units 3 are connected to the center lock 4, and the outer end of each internal telescopic unit 3 is connected to the upper part of a corresponding support leg 1. The top frame of the tent is mainly composed of external telescopic units 2 and internal telescopic units 3. The external telescopic units 2 and / or the internal telescopic units 3 are connected to the tarpaulin (not shown in the figure) and stretch the tarpaulin open, thereby forming a sheltered space underneath the tarpaulin. Typically, the tarpaulin covers the top of the tent. In some cases, the tarpaulin may have a skirt hanging around the tent, but the height of the skirt is much smaller than the height of the support legs 11. In other words, the sides of the tent are generally open and not covered by the tarpaulin. Such a design can facilitate ventilation and easy entry and exit of the tent. In this article, "height" refers to the dimension of an element in the up and down (vertical) direction.

[0044] Combine Figures 2 to 5As shown, the tent also includes an accessory connecting device 5 arranged on the frame, the accessory connecting device 5 includes a hanging rope 51 and a reeling mechanism 52, the hanging rope 51 is connected to the supporting leg 1, and the reeling mechanism 52 is connected to the hanging rope 51 to reel or unreel the hanging rope 51; when the tent is in the unfolded state, the hanging rope 51 is unfolded between adjacent supporting legs 1 to connect the accessories of the frame, and the hanging rope 51 located outside the reeling mechanism 52 has a first length L1; when the tent is in the folded state, the adjacent supporting legs 1 are close to each other, part of the hanging rope 51 is reeled in the reeling mechanism 52, and the hanging rope 51 located outside the reeling mechanism 52 has a second length L2, and the second length L2 is less than the first length L1. The first length L1 and the second length L2 are related to the distance between adjacent support legs 1. When the tent is transformed from an expanded state to a folded state, the distance between adjacent support legs 1 decreases, and the length of the hanging rope 51 outside the reeling mechanism 52 decreases, eventually decreasing to L2. Conversely, when the tent is transformed from a folded state to an expanded state, the distance between adjacent support legs 1 increases, and the length of the hanging rope 51 outside the reeling mechanism 52 increases, eventually increasing to L1. The number of accessory connecting devices 5 can be one or more, depending on the number of accessories to be connected. Accessories include, but are not limited to, tent fabric, game screens, etc. The hanging rope 51 can be a steel cable.

[0045] The curtain is connected to the side of the tent (such as the side facing the sun, such as the front or back of the tent) to cover one or more sides of the tent. The game screen can be provided with a ball hole, a ball net, or a throwing hole to provide game functions for users to play ball games, throwing games, etc. The curtain or game screen can be installed on the hanging rope 51 and can be easily removed from the hanging rope 51. The user can flexibly choose whether to connect accessories to the tent as needed. At the same time, the winding mechanism 52 is located on the inner side of the outer telescopic unit 2. When the tent is unfolded or folded, the curtain, game screen, etc. are arranged on the hanging rope 51 without affecting the unfolding and folding of the outer telescopic unit 2 and the support leg 1. Moreover, the rods of the outer telescopic unit 2 and the support leg 1 will not scratch or rub the curtain, game screen, etc., thereby preventing the accessories from being worn or torn. The curtain and other accessories can be connected to the hanging rope 51 by hooks, Velcro, etc., but this is not limited by the present invention. The upper edge of the apron or game curtain is connected to the hanging rope 51 and is unfolded by the hanging rope 51.

[0046] The reeling mechanism 52 can be provided on the support leg 1 or the outer telescopic unit 2. Specifically, in this embodiment, the reeling mechanism 52 is provided on the outer telescopic unit 2, and the hanging rope 51 includes a first hanging rope 511 and a second hanging rope 512. The inner ends of the first hanging rope 511 and the second hanging rope 512 are connected to the reeling mechanism 52, the outer end of the first hanging rope 511 is connected to the first support leg 1a, and the outer end of the second hanging rope 512 is connected to the second support leg 1b adjacent to the first support leg 1a; when the tent is in the unfolded state, the first hanging rope 511 and the second hanging rope 512 are unfolded by the first support leg 1a and the second support leg 1b; when the tent is in the folded state, the first support leg 1a and the second support leg 1b are close to each other, and parts of the first hanging rope 511 and / or the second hanging rope 512 are reeled in the reeling mechanism 52.

[0047] The external telescopic unit 2 includes an expandable and foldable eaves unit 21. The eaves unit 21 comprises two eaves rods 211, which are pivotally connected at their midpoints via a first pivot 22, forming a structure resembling a pair of scissors or a cross. The external telescopic unit 2 may include multiple eaves units 21, which are pivotally connected in sequence via a second pivot 23. A reeling mechanism 52 is located inside the eaves unit 21. In the example shown in the accompanying drawings, the reeling mechanism 52 is mounted on the first pivot 22 or on the eaves rod 211 via the first pivot 22. In other embodiments, the reeling mechanism 52 may be directly fixed to the eaves rod 211 or located at the pivotal connection between the two eaves units 21, such as on the second pivot 23. Similarly, similar to the expandable and foldable external telescopic unit 2, the internal telescopic unit 3 is also composed of multiple hinged top rods, enabling expansion and folding. The structure of the outer telescopic unit 2 and the inner telescopic unit 3 is not the key point of the utility model of the present application, and a known telescopic rod structure can be adopted.

[0048] Reference Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the winding mechanism 52 includes a winding shell 521, a winding chamber 522, and an elastic member 523. The winding chamber 522 and the elastic member 523 are both disposed within the winding shell 521. The winding chamber 522 is rotatably disposed within the winding shell 521, and the hanging rope 51 is connected to the winding chamber 522 and can be wound around the winding chamber 522. The elastic member 523 is disposed between the winding shell 521 and the winding chamber 522. When the tent is deployed, the elastic member 523 deforms, thereby causing the winding chamber 522 to rotate in a first direction, thereby winding the hanging rope 51.

[0049] Specifically, the winding shell 521 has a rope hole for the first and second hanging ropes 511 and 512 to pass through. One end of the first hanging rope 511 is fixed to the winding chamber 522, and the other end is connected to the first support leg 1a. One end of the second hanging rope 512 is fixed to the winding chamber 522, and the other end is connected to the second support leg 1b. The winding shell 521 is provided with a rotating shaft 5212, and the winding chamber 522 is mounted on the rotating shaft 5212, that is, it is rotatably connected to the winding shell 521 via the rotating shaft 5212. The elastic member 523 is specifically a coil spring mounted on the rotating shaft 5212, and the coil spring abuts against the winding chamber 522. The outer circumferential surface of the winding chamber 522 is provided with an annular rope groove, in which the first and second hanging ropes 511 and 512 can be wound. The winding chamber 522 has a cavity within it, through which the rotating shaft 5212 passes. A coil spring is installed in the cavity, with at least one end of the coil spring resting against the inner wall of the winding chamber 522. Once the coil spring is installed, a cover plate secures the coil spring within the winding chamber 522. The winding shell 521 also has a cover plate, and the winding shell 521 and winding chamber 522 are assembled together using fasteners such as screws.

[0050] The retracting shell 521 is fixed to the center of the outer telescopic unit 2, specifically via the first pivot 22 of the middle eaves unit 21. A pivot hole is defined at the bottom of the retracting shell 521 for the first pivot 22 to pass through. The retracting shell 521 is also provided with a connecting lug 5211 extending toward the inside of the tent. The tent frame also includes one or more reinforcing rod units 6 that can be deployed and folded. The inner ends of the reinforcing rod units 6 are connected to the center lock 4, and the outer ends of the reinforcing rod units 6 are connected to the retracting mechanism 52, specifically the connecting lug 5211 on the retracting shell 521. Each reinforcing rod unit 6 includes a plurality of inner reinforcing rods 61 and outer reinforcing rods 62 that are pivotally connected to each other. The inner reinforcing rods 61 are rotatably connected to the center lock 4, while the outer reinforcing rods 62 are rotatably connected to the connecting lug 5211. Specifically, the retracting shell 521 is provided with two connecting lugs 5211. The outer ends of the outer reinforcing rods 62 are inserted between the two connecting lugs 5211 and rotatably connected via a connecting shaft.

[0051] Combine Figure 3 and Figure 7 As shown, the accessory connection device 5 also includes a fixing seat 53, which is provided on the support leg 1; specifically, the fixing seat 53 can be detachably provided on the upper end of the support leg 1 by means of fasteners such as screws. A receiving groove 531 is provided in the fixing seat 53, and the receiving groove 531 has an open end, which is preferably the upper end of the receiving groove 531. The fixing seat 53 is also provided with a threading groove 532, which is connected to the receiving groove 531, and the threading groove 532 extends downward from the upper edge of the fixing seat 53. Figure 8As shown, the end of the hanging rope 51 is provided with a connector 513. The connector 513 is confined within the receiving groove 531 of the fixing base 53 or within the space between the fixing base 53 and the support leg 1. The hanging rope 51 passes through the threading groove 532. The hanging rope 51 can enter and exit the threading groove 532 in the vertical direction, and the connector 513 can enter and exit the fixing base 53 or between the fixing base 53 and the support leg 1 in the vertical direction. Specifically, during installation, the connector 513 enters the receiving groove 531 from the top down, and the hanging rope 51 can be inserted into the threading groove 532 from the top down.

[0052] The foldable tent of this embodiment is used as follows: an accessory connection device 5 is provided between adjacent support legs 1 on one or more sides of the tent. As the tent unfolds, the distance between adjacent support legs 1 increases, thereby unwinding the hanging rope 51. The length of the hanging rope 51 extending outside the reeling mechanism 52 increases to adapt to the distance between adjacent support legs 1. During this process, the elastic member 523 of the reeling mechanism 52 deforms. After the tent is unfolded, a cloth or a game screen can be hung on the hanging rope 51 according to specific needs. When the tent is folded, the adjacent support legs 1 move closer to each other, the elastic member 523 is released, and the hanging rope 51 is retracted into the reeling shell 521. Figure 8 shown.

[0053] The foldable tent is provided with a hanging rope 51 and a reeling mechanism 52 that can automatically reel the hanging rope 51 between adjacent supporting legs 1. When the tent is in the unfolded state, the multiple supporting legs 1 are away from each other, and the hanging rope 51 is unwound from the reeling mechanism 52, thereby unfolding between the adjacent supporting legs 1. The tent accessories, including a cloth, a game screen, etc., can be connected through the hanging rope 51; when the tent is folded, as the supporting legs 1 move closer to each other, the hanging rope 51 is automatically reeled under the action of the elastic member 523, avoiding redundant length of the hanging rope 51 between the supporting legs 1, and avoiding the hanging rope 51 being too long and causing the hanging rope 51 to be entangled, thereby solving the problem that the hanging rope 51 affects the appearance after the tent is folded and the entanglement causes inconvenience in subsequent opening and use.
