[0001] This utility model relates to the field of outdoor tent awnings, and in particular to an extended and fixed structure for outdoor tent awning support poles. Background Technology

[0002] Outdoor tent tarps are a common piece of equipment used in camping or other outdoor activities. They are used to block sunlight, provide shade, or protect against rain. They are usually set above or next to a tent, creating an additional covered space and increasing the camper's range of movement. When using an outdoor tent tarp, support poles are usually needed to support the tarp to ensure that it can be stably deployed and maintain a certain shape. Existing support poles have a single cylindrical structure at the bottom, which has a limited contact area with the soil. This may cause the tarp to tip over during the setup process, making it difficult to set up the tarp and affecting the user experience.

[0003] To address the aforementioned issues, a new extended and fixed structure for outdoor tent canopy support poles has been developed. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: An outdoor tent canopy support pole extension and fixing structure includes a support pole, the support pole including a first pole body, a protrusion connected to the lower part of the first pole body, rubber pads provided on both the left and right sides of the protrusion, an extension pole slidably connected to the support pole, the extension pole including a second pole body, the second pole body slidably connected to the first pole body, a limit block connected to the upper end of the second pole body, a first locking member slidably connected to the second pole body, a spring connected between the first locking member and the second pole body, the first locking member slidably connected to the first pole body, a connecting member slidably connected to the support pole, a second locking member rotatably connected to the connecting member, the second locking member threadedly connected to the first pole body, connecting rods rotatably connected to both the left and right sides of the connecting member, mounting members rotatably connected to the lower part of each connecting rod, and auxiliary support members installed at the front of each mounting member.

[0006] Preferably, the system also includes a first protective frame, with the lower part of the support rod being snapped into the first protective frame, and the lower parts of the auxiliary support members being snapped into the second protective frame.

[0007] Preferably, the lower part of the first rod has a conical structure.

[0008] Preferably, the lower part of each mounting component is provided with a rubber block to increase friction.

[0009] Preferably, each of the auxiliary support members is provided with an assist block.

[0010] Preferably, the lower part of each of the auxiliary support members is connected to a limiting member.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solutions, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0012] This utility model features a limit block to prevent the canopy hook from accidentally slipping off. Simultaneously, the auxiliary support components on both sides increase the contact area between the support rod and the soil. Depending on the soil's hardness, the auxiliary support components are rotated into the soil using an assist block, thus providing auxiliary support. The rubber block at the bottom of the mounting component increases friction between the component and the soil, making the canopy deployment more stable. The first and second protective frames protect the support rod and the lower part of the auxiliary support components, helping to improve the safety of the support rod during transportation.

Detailed Implementation

[0018] The embodiments of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0019] An outdoor tent tarp support pole extension and fixing structure, such as Figures 1-4As shown, the device includes a support rod 1, which comprises a first rod body 101. The lower part of the first rod body 101 has a conical structure, and a protrusion 102 is connected to the lower part of the first rod body 101. Rubber pads 103 are provided on both the left and right sides of the protrusion 102. An extension rod 2 is slidably connected to the support rod 1. The extension rod 2 includes a second rod body 201, which is slidably connected to the first rod body 101. A limit block 202 is connected to the upper end of the second rod body 201, and a first locking member 3 is slidably connected to the second rod body 201. A spring 4 is connected between the first locking member 3 and the second rod body 201. The rod body 101 is slidably connected, and a connector 5 is slidably connected to the support rod 1. A second locking member 6 is rotatably connected to the connector 5. The second locking member 6 is threadedly connected to the first rod body 101. Connecting rods 7 are rotatably connected to both the left and right sides of the connector 5. Mounting members 8 are rotatably connected to the lower part of the connecting rods 7. Each mounting member 8 has a rubber block at the lower part to increase friction. An auxiliary support member 9 is installed at the front of each mounting member 8. Each auxiliary support member 9 has an assist block. Each auxiliary support member 9 is connected to a limit member at the lower part. A first protective frame 10 is snapped into the lower part of the support rod 1. A second protective frame 11 is snapped into the lower part of each auxiliary support member 9.

[0020] It should be noted that outdoor tent tarps are a common piece of equipment used in camping or other outdoor activities. They are used to block sunlight, provide shade, or protect against rain. They are usually placed above or beside the tent, creating an additional covered space and increasing the camper's activity range. When using an outdoor tent tarp, support poles 1 are typically used to support the tarp, ensuring it can be stably deployed and maintain a certain shape. First, the tarp hooks are placed on the second pole 201 below the limiting block 202. The limiting block 202 prevents the hooks from accidentally slipping off. Next, the first locking member 3 is pressed, compressing the spring 4. After the first locking member 3 disengages from the first pole 101, the second pole 201 is slid to the appropriate position, aligning the first locking member 3 with the slot on the first pole 101. Under the reaction force of the spring 4, the first locking member 3 pops outward, thus locking the first pole 101 again, thereby determining the overall support height of the tarp. Then, the height is adjusted according to the actual soil conditions. Slide the connector 5 to a suitable height and lock it to the support rod 1 using the second locking piece 6, so that the auxiliary support piece 9 can cooperate with the support rod 1 to provide auxiliary support. Then rotate the connecting rod 7 to a suitable angle, and then, depending on the softness or hardness of the soil, use the assist block to rotate the auxiliary support piece 9 into the soil. The rubber block at the bottom of the mounting piece 8 can increase the friction between the mounting piece 8 and the soil. After use, the support device needs to be stored. The rubber pad 103 can prevent hard friction between the connecting rod 7 and the first rod 101, so as to avoid the first rod 101 and the connecting rod 7 from colliding. To prevent the conical structure at the bottom of the auxiliary support piece 9 and the first rod 101 from damaging the storage bag, the first protective frame 10 can be used to clip onto the bottom of the first rod 101 and the second protective frame 11 can be used to clip onto the bottom of the second rod 201, thereby protecting the auxiliary support piece 9 and the first rod 101 and helping to improve the safety of the support rod 1 during transportation.
