Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tent accessories technology, and in particular to a hexagonal column sliding connector. Background Technology
[0002] A tent is a foldable and portable temporary shelter structure. Its main function is to provide people with a relatively independent space outdoors for resting, sleeping, and sheltering from inclement weather (such as wind, rain, and scorching sun). In camping activities, the tent is the camper's "outdoor home," creating a private and safe small environment.
[0003] In a broader sense, tents can also be used in various scenarios such as wilderness exploration, disaster relief and shelter, temporary storage, and outdoor exhibitions. For example, during wilderness exploration, tents serve as shelter for explorers in remote areas; in disaster relief scenarios, they can be quickly set up to provide temporary shelter for affected people.
[0004] The existing tents have hexagonal poles. The connectors installed in the middle of the poles and used to connect with the cross ribs are usually fixed to the poles by pins. Operating the pins is time-consuming and laborious, making it inconvenient to disassemble or install the tent, extending the tent setup and dismantling time, and affecting the efficiency of use. This disadvantage is particularly prominent in outdoor emergency setup scenarios. Utility Model Content
[0005] To overcome the above shortcomings, this utility model provides a hexagonal column sliding connector, which aims to improve the existing technology where the connector installed in the middle of the column and used to connect with the cross ribs is generally fixed to the column by a pin. Operating the pin is time-consuming and laborious, making it inconvenient to disassemble or install the tent, extending the tent setup and disassembly time, and affecting the efficiency of use. This disadvantage is particularly prominent in outdoor emergency setup scenarios.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a hexagonal column sliding connector, including a column mounting cylinder, wherein each column mounting cylinder is fixedly connected to a mounting frame, each mounting frame is fixedly connected to a limiting frame, each mounting frame has an installation hole inside, and each column mounting cylinder is fixedly connected to a mounting block.
[0007] Furthermore, the interior of the column mounting cylinder and the mounting block is provided with a sliding groove, and a sliding plate is slidably connected inside the sliding groove. A limit rod is fixedly connected to the side of the sliding plate near the center of the column mounting cylinder.
[0008] Furthermore, the limiting rod is slidably connected inside the limiting hole, which is located inside the column mounting cylinder.
[0009] Furthermore, a pull rod and a spring are fixedly connected to the side of the sliding plate away from the limiting rod, and the outside of the pull rod is disposed inside the sliding groove.
[0010] Furthermore, the spring is disposed outside the pull rod, and the end of the spring away from the sliding plate is fixedly connected to the inside of the sliding groove.
[0011] Furthermore, the outside of the pull rod is slidably connected to the inside of the mounting block.
[0012] Furthermore, a pull ring is provided inside the pull rod.
[0013] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0014] 1. In this utility model, after the hexagonal column is positioned, the mounting bracket and the limiting frame fix the hexagonal column, the first cross rib, and the second cross rib together. The sliding connection ensures that these components are firmly joined, providing sufficient support and stability. The mounting bracket has mounting holes inside, through which bolts or other connectors can be used for a more secure connection to the external structure. Thus, the structure plays a crucial supporting and connecting role in practical use, especially in scenarios such as tent erection. This structural combination effectively improves the strength and safety of the connection and is easy to operate.
[0015] 2. In this utility model, when it is necessary to limit the hexagonal column, pull the pull ring. The pull ring drives the pull rod to move. At the same time, the pull rod moves the sliding plate and the spring. The movement of the sliding plate drives the limiting rod to move. The limiting rod slides inside the limiting hole, causing the limiting rod to disengage from the inside of the column mounting cylinder. At this time, place the hexagonal column inside the column mounting cylinder, and then release the pull ring. The spring force drives the sliding plate and the limiting rod to move. The limiting rod resets and engages inside the column mounting cylinder, thereby limiting the hexagonal column inside the column mounting cylinder. This method is efficient, simple, and safe.

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0022] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 An embodiment of this utility model provides a hexagonal column sliding connector, including a column mounting cylinder 1, with mounting brackets 10 fixedly connected to the outside of the column mounting cylinder 1, and limit frames 11 fixedly connected to the outside of the mounting brackets 10, and mounting holes 12 opened inside the mounting brackets 10.
[0023] It serves to secure the hexagonal uprights, the first crossbeam, and the second crossbeam together. The sliding connection ensures these components are firmly joined, providing sufficient support and stability.
[0024] The mounting bracket 10 has mounting holes 12 inside, which users can use to make a more secure connection with the external structure using bolts or other connectors. In this way, the structure can play an important supporting and connecting role in practical use, especially in scenarios such as tent erection. This structural combination effectively improves stability and durability, making it suitable for occasions that need to withstand external pressure or unstable environments, such as providing support and connection during tent erection. It also facilitates disassembly and installation, greatly improving efficiency.
[0025] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3An installation block 2 is fixedly connected to the outside of the column mounting cylinder 1. A sliding groove 3 is opened inside the column mounting cylinder 1 and the installation block 2. A sliding plate 4 is slidably connected inside the sliding groove 3. A limit rod 7 is fixedly connected to the side of the sliding plate 4 near the center of the column mounting cylinder 1. The limit rod 7 is slidably connected inside the limit hole 8, which is opened inside the column mounting cylinder 1. A pull rod 5 and a spring 9 are fixedly connected to the side of the sliding plate 4 away from the limit rod 7. The outside of the pull rod 5 is set inside the sliding groove 3, and the spring 9 is set outside the pull rod 5. The end of the spring 9 away from the sliding plate 4 is fixedly connected inside the sliding groove 3. The outside of the pull rod 5 is slidably connected through the inside of the installation block 2. A pull ring 6 is set inside the pull rod 5.
[0026] The core components of the device include a column mounting cylinder 1 and an externally fixed mounting block 2. The column mounting cylinder 1 has a sliding groove 3, and the mounting block 2 also has a corresponding sliding groove 3 inside. A sliding plate 4 slides within the sliding groove 3 and connects to a limiting rod 7, which can slide within a limiting hole 8. This design ensures that the limiting rod 7 can move during locking and guarantees accurate positioning of the hexagonal column. A pull rod 5 and a spring 9 are used to control the movement of the limiting rod 7. The pull rod 5 is operated via a pull ring 6. Pulling the pull ring 6 causes the pull rod 5 to move together with the sliding plate 4 and the spring 9, thereby disengaging or relocking the limiting rod 7 within the column mounting cylinder 1. The spring 9, through its elasticity, resets the sliding plate 4 and the limiting rod 7, ensuring that the limiting rod 7 automatically engages when needed, guaranteeing a secure fixation of the hexagonal column.
[0027] Working principle: First, manually pull the pull ring 6. The pull ring 6 is forced to move the pull rod 5. Since the pull rod 5 is fixedly connected to the sliding plate 4, the movement of the pull rod 5 will drag the sliding plate 4 to move synchronously in the sliding groove 3. The movement of the sliding plate 4 will also drive the limit rod 7 connected to it to slide inside the limit hole 8, so that the limit rod 7 is released from its original state of being locked inside the column mounting cylinder 1. At this time, the hexagonal column can be smoothly placed inside the column mounting cylinder 1.
[0028] Next, after releasing the pull ring 6, the spring 9 will return to its original shape under the action of the spring force. The resulting elastic force will push the sliding plate 4 to move in the opposite direction along the sliding groove 3. The sliding plate 4 will also drive the limit rod 7 to reset. The limit rod 7 will re-engage inside the column mounting cylinder 1, thus completing the limitation of the hexagonal column and firmly restricting it inside the column mounting cylinder 1.
[0029] Based on this, the two sets of mounting brackets 10 and limiting frames 11 are assembled and connected to the first cross bone and the second cross bone respectively. With the help of this hexagonal column sliding connector, the hexagonal column, the first cross bone and the second cross bone can be firmly fixed together to form a stable structural combination. The mounting bracket 10 has mounting holes 12 inside, through which suitable connectors (such as bolts) can be used to achieve a more stable connection with the external structure, meeting the corresponding usage requirements. For example, it plays an important role in support and connection in scenarios such as tent erection.
[0030] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
