Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of outdoor louvered awning technology, and in particular to a lateral louvered assembly with a linkage opening and closing mechanism, a lateral louvered sliding door, and a louvered tent. Background Technology

[0002] Outdoor tents come in various structural forms, ranging from foldable tents that can be stored away to fixed tents that can be placed directly in outdoor courtyards or parks. Venetian awnings, a type of fixed tent, feature a louvered roof structure. A linkage mechanism allows the louvers to be flipped, enabling them to provide shade or be opened. Venetian awnings are popular with consumers due to their ability to adjust light.

[0003] For example, CN221957480U discloses a side louver opening and closing structure, including a side tube one, a side tube two, and a plurality of louver plates arranged sequentially between the side tube one and the side tube two. Rotating shafts are provided at both ends of the louver plates. A plurality of mounting seats are provided in the side tube one and the side tube two at positions corresponding to the rotating shafts. The rotating shafts and the mounting seats are rotatably inserted and engaged. A linkage bar is provided between the side tube one or the side tube two and the louver plates. A linkage hole is provided at one end of the louver plate near the linkage bar, which is used to connect and engage with the first fastening hole provided on the linkage bar. The louver plates are rotated by pulling the linkage bar up and down.

[0004] Existing louvered awnings are often paired with side sliding doors or side rails. The use of louvered panels for opening and closing allows for the diversification of louvered tents. However, the linkage structure of existing side louvered panels typically uses an external linkage design, which affects the overall aesthetic appearance of the side louvers. Furthermore, because the linkage is externally mounted, and since the side louvers are easily accessible, the linkage is susceptible to interference, leading to malfunctions or damage during long-term use, thus affecting product usability.
