Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to an outdoor tent locking pin, specifically an outdoor tent locking pin with a telescopic structure, belonging to the field of outdoor tent technology. Background Technology

[0002] Tent locking pins are devices used to connect and secure the various components of a tent (such as tent poles, tent frame, etc.). They ensure the stability of the tent structure, allowing the tent to maintain its correct shape after setup and preventing it from easily falling apart. For example, in some large or complex tent structures, tent locking pins can connect multiple tent poles together to form a stable frame.

[0003] In existing technologies, such as the locking pin, telescopic mechanism, and linkage mechanism for tent accessories disclosed in CN211874087U, not only reduce assembly difficulty and improve parts versatility, but also provide more convenient locking and unlocking. The assembly cylinder is equipped with a limiting groove to restrict its rotational movement, effectively improving installation stability. A screw-in sleeve is provided within the limiting groove, allowing for reinforcement of the locking pin with self-tapping screws. The pin has a plastic end to reduce the hardness of its insertion end, effectively preventing wear on the tent accessories. The plastic end is defined as semi-circular, reducing the size of the insertion end and facilitating smooth pin insertion.

[0004] However, in implementing the relevant technology, the locking pins, telescopic mechanisms, and linkage mechanisms for tent accessories designed above have the following problems: Although the existing technology can reduce the difficulty of assembly, in the actual use process, because the length of the locking pin is relatively fixed, it cannot be adjusted and inserted according to the specific use, and the use effect is relatively limited and single, and it cannot be applied to many tent assembly situations. In view of this, a locking pin for outdoor tents with a telescopic structure is provided to overcome the above defects. Utility Model Content

[0005] This invention addresses the technical problem of fixed-length locking pins that cannot be adjusted for specific use, resulting in limited and singular application and unsuitability for many tent assembly scenarios. It provides a locking pin with a telescopic structure for outdoor tents.

[0006] The present invention achieves the above objectives through the following technical solution: a locking pin for an outdoor tent with a telescopic structure, comprising an outer shell, an abutment block fixedly installed at the bottom end of the outer shell, and an adjustment mechanism provided at the top of the outer shell;

[0007] The adjusting mechanism includes a collar, which is sleeved on the top of the outer shell, and an insert rod extends through the inside of the collar. A through hole is provided at the top of the outer shell corresponding to the position of the insert rod, and a sleeve is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the insert rod. A telescopic rod extends through the inside of the sleeve, and an exit rod is fixedly installed at one end of the telescopic rod that extends through the abutment block. A connecting block is sleeved at the bottom end of the exit rod.

[0008] As a further improvement of this utility model: the inner wall of the sleeve is provided with a sliding groove, and a slider is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the telescopic rod at the position corresponding to the sliding groove.

[0009] As a further improvement of this utility model: the collar is threadedly connected to the outer shell, and the outer shell and the sleeve form a rotating structure.

[0010] As a further improvement of this utility model: the top end of the collar is rotatably connected to a rotating rod, and the top end of the rotating rod is movably connected to a connecting component.

[0011] As a further embodiment of this utility model: an abutting mechanism is provided below the collar, the abutting mechanism includes a sliding ring, the sliding ring is slidably connected to the outer wall of the outer shell, and a mounting groove is provided below the sliding ring on the outer wall of the outer shell.

[0012] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the interior of the placement groove is provided with a slot, and a connecting rod is slidably connected inside the slot. One end of the connecting rod that extends out of the slot is rotatably connected to an abutment plate.

[0013] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the connecting rod and the contact plate form a rotating structure, and the contact plate and the mounting groove form a sliding structure.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: the outer shell and collar are disassembled and assembled through the threaded connection; the insert rod passes through the through hole and out of the outer shell to avoid contact between the outer shell and the collar; the collar is rotated again and connected to the telescopic rod through the sleeve; and the telescopic rod is pushed under the limit of the slide groove and the slider to drive the insert rod to slide and adjust the position of the connecting block, thereby making telescopic adjustment. Then the outer shell and collar are fixed by threaded connection, and the connecting block and the insert rod are connected by thread for easy disassembly and assembly. Thus, the corresponding plug-in components can be replaced according to the needs of the tent, which can improve the uniformity of the parts and facilitate quick and simple installation. At the same time, the telescopic length can be adjusted according to the actual needs of the tent to improve its applicability.

[0015] The connecting block can be fixed with the buckles, pins, etc. required for the tent, facilitating quick assembly and disassembly with the poles. This makes the locking pin multifunctional, avoiding the cumbersome assembly of too many different parts when building a tent, simplifying the tent parts and improving the efficiency of the tent assembly process. When the connecting block and ground pegs are used to fix the tent, the position of the contact plate can be adjusted by the cooperation of the mounting slot and the locking groove, and then by the connecting rod, the contact plate can be slid and rotated to make contact with the ground. Then, the position is adjusted by the sliding ring connected to the outer shell, and it abuts against the top of the contact plate, improving the stability of the tent fixation. Thus, the locking pin has a multifunctional effect. Attached Figure Description

[0022] 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. Example 1

[0023] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, a locking pin for an outdoor tent with a telescopic structure includes a shell 1. A contact block 2 is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the shell 1, and an adjustment mechanism 3 is provided above the shell 1. The adjustment mechanism 3 includes a collar 301, which is fitted onto the top end of the shell 1. An insert rod 302 extends through the inside of the collar 301. A through hole 303 is provided at the top end of the shell 1 corresponding to the position of the insert rod 302. A sleeve 304 is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the insert rod 302. A telescopic rod 305 extends through the inside of the sleeve 304. An exit rod 306 is fixedly installed at one end of the telescopic rod 305 that extends beyond the contact block 2. A connecting block 307 is fitted at the bottom end of the exit rod 306. A groove 308 is provided on the inner wall of the sleeve 304, and a slider 309 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the telescopic rod 305 corresponding to the position of the groove 308. The collar 301 is threadedly connected to the shell 1, and a connection is formed between the shell 1 and the sleeve 304. The structure is rotatable. The top of the collar 301 is rotatably connected to a rotating rod 4, and the top of the rotating rod 4 is movably connected to a connecting component 5. The outer shell 1 and the collar 301 are detached and reassembled via a threaded connection. The insert rod 302 passes through the through hole 303 and exits the outer shell 1 to avoid contact between the outer shell 1 and the collar 301. The collar 301 is rotated again and threadedly connected to the telescopic rod 305 via the sleeve 304. Under the limit of the sliding groove 308 and the slider 309, the telescopic rod 305 is pushed to drive the exit rod 306 to slide and adjust the position of the connecting block 307, thereby performing telescopic adjustment. Then, the outer shell 1 and the collar 301 are threadedly fixed. The threaded connection between the connecting block 307 and the exit rod 306 facilitates disassembly and assembly. This allows for the replacement of corresponding plug-in components according to the needs of the tent, which can maximize the uniformity of parts and facilitate quick and simple installation. At the same time, the telescopic length can be adjusted according to the actual needs of the tent to improve its applicability. Example 2

[0024] In addition to all the technical features in Embodiment 1, this embodiment also includes: a contact mechanism 6 is provided below the collar 301. The contact mechanism 6 includes a sliding ring 601, which is slidably connected to the outer wall of the outer shell 1. A placement groove 602 is provided below the sliding ring 601 on the outer wall of the outer shell 1. A slot 603 is provided inside the placement groove 602. A connecting rod 604 is slidably connected inside the slot 603. One end of the connecting rod 604, which protrudes from the outer wall of the slot 603, is rotatably connected to a contact plate 605. The connecting rod 604 and the contact plate 605 form a rotating structure, and the contact plate 605 and the placement groove 602 form a sliding structure. It should be noted that the connecting block 30 7 can be fixed with the buckles, pins, etc. required for the tent, and can be quickly disassembled and assembled with the through pole 306, thus making the locking pin multifunctional. This avoids the cumbersome assembly of too many different parts when assembling the tent, simplifies the tent parts, and improves the efficiency of the tent assembly process. When the connecting block 307 and the ground pegs are used to fix the tent, the mounting slot 602 and the locking slot 603 can be used to slide and rotate the abutment plate 605 through the connecting rod 604 to adjust its position and make it contact the ground. Then, the sliding ring 601, which is threaded to the outer shell 1, is adjusted to abut against the abutment plate 605, which improves the stability of the tent fixation, thus making the locking pin multifunctional.

[0025] Working principle: First, the collar 301 is disassembled from the outer shell 1 via a threaded connection. The sleeve 304 rises by pulling the insert rod 302 through the through hole 303. Then, the collar 301 is rotated directly, allowing the sleeve 304 to connect threadedly with the telescopic rod 305. Limited by the sliding groove 308 and the slider 309, the telescopic rod 305 drives the protruding rod 306 to slide along the contact block 2, achieving a telescopic effect. This allows for length adjustment to improve applicability. After adjustment, the collar 301 and outer shell 1 are re-threaded for fixation. The collar 301 is connected to the connecting assembly 5 via a locking rotating rod 4. The threaded connection between the through rod 306 and the connecting block 307 facilitates disassembly and replacement. The connecting block 307 can be fixed with buckles, locks, or even ground pegs, thereby improving the versatility of the locking pin. It allows tent frames and other components to be connected to each other, avoiding the troublesome installation and debugging of multiple parts. When it needs to be used as a ground peg to fix the tent, the abutment plate 605 slides along the mounting groove 602 and rotates through the connecting rod 604 and the slot 603. The position is adjusted by the sliding ring 601 threaded connection along the outer shell 1, and the abutment plate 605 abuts against the ground, improving the stability of the fixation and thus enhancing the multi-functionality of the locking pin.
