Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of outdoor equipment technology, and in particular to an eaves fixing device for outdoor tents. Background Technology

[0002] Outdoor tents are essential equipment for outdoor activities such as camping and exploration, primarily used to provide temporary shelter and protect users from wind, rain, and sun. With the increasing popularity and diversification of outdoor activities, tent designs are constantly evolving to meet the needs of different scenarios. Modern tents not only emphasize lightweight and ease of setup but also incorporate numerous functional innovations, such as increased storage space and improved ventilation. Among these, the overhang design, as a way to expand the tent's roof coverage area, is gradually becoming a standard feature in many high-end tents.

[0003] Currently, some tents on the market are equipped with outward-extending eaves structures, designed to expand the coverage area of ​​the tent roof and provide better sunshade and rain protection. These eaves are typically deployed and retracted using eave poles housed within the support poles. When deployed, the user needs to rotate the eave pole and secure it in a specific position. Existing fixing methods mostly use screws or clamps to secure the eave pole to the tent body. However, this design has certain limitations in practical use. For example, the rotation and securing process of the eave pole is relatively cumbersome, especially when the screw holes are not visible, making it difficult for users to align them accurately, resulting in inconvenience.

[0004] While existing eaves fixing devices meet the functional requirements of tents to some extent, their design still has significant shortcomings. First, the eaves pole needs to be secured with screws after rotation, and the screw holes are often located in hard-to-see positions, making accurate alignment difficult and increasing the complexity of operation. Second, the unfolding and folding of the eaves is not convenient, especially in outdoor environments, where users may need to spend considerable time and effort to complete these operations. Furthermore, existing fixing methods also have stability issues; the eaves are prone to loosening in strong winds or inclement weather, affecting their usability. Utility Model Content

[0021] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that these descriptions are merely descriptive and exemplary and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0022] It should be noted that similar labels in the following figures indicate similar items; therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it may not be further defined and explained in subsequent figures.

[0023] This embodiment mainly describes the structure of an outdoor tent, as follows:

[0024] An eaves fixing device for outdoor tents, such as Figures 1-4As shown, the tent includes a frame 1, an extension frame 2, a first elastic element 3, an eave 4, a fixed plate 5, a movable plate 6, a second elastic element 7, a slot 8, and a locking assembly. The tent is composed of multiple frames 1. An extension frame 2 is fixedly connected to the top frame 1 of the tent. An eave 4 is slidably connected inside the extension frame 2. A first elastic element 3 is provided at the upper end of the extension frame 2. One end of the first elastic element 3 is fixedly connected inside the extension frame 2, and the other end is fixedly connected to the eave 4. When the eave 4 is closed, the first elastic element 3 is in a non-elastic state. A fixed plate 5 is connected to the end of the eave 4. A movable plate 6 is slidably connected below the fixed plate 5. A second elastic element 7 is provided between the movable plate 6 and the fixed plate 5. The top of the second elastic element 7 is fixedly connected to the fixed plate 5, and the bottom is fixedly connected to the movable plate 6. When the eave 4 is closed, the second elastic element 7 is in a compressed state. A slot 8 is opened on the lower side of the extension frame 2. The movable plate 6 is slidably connected inside the extension frame 2, and the movable plate 6 and the slot 8 are mutually restrictive. When the eaves 4 are unfolded, the movable plate 6 slides along the extension frame 2 and automatically snaps into the slot 8 under the elastic force of the second elastic element 7, thus fixing the eaves 4. The lower end of the extension frame 2 is provided with a locking component for locking the eaves 4.

[0025] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the locking assembly includes a third elastic element 9, a locking block 10, and an operating lever 11. The locking block 10 is slidably connected to the lower end of the eaves 4. A square hole is opened at the top of the lower end of the extension frame 2. The third elastic element 9 is provided inside the eaves 4. One end of the third elastic element 9 is fixed inside the eaves 4, and the other end is fixed to the locking block 10. The locking block 10 is limited and engaged with the square hole of the extension frame 2. When the eaves 4 is retracted, the locking block 10 is inserted into the square hole, and the third elastic element 9 is in a state of no elasticity. The operating lever 11 is fixed to the side of the locking block 10. After the eaves 4 slides into the extension frame 2, the operating lever 11 is released, and the third elastic element 9 pushes the locking block 10 into the square hole to prevent the eaves 4 from accidentally sliding back into the extension frame 2.

[0026] like Figure 4 As shown, it also includes a rubber sleeve 12. The operating lever 11 is fitted with a rubber sleeve 12, which increases the comfort and anti-slip properties of the operation.

[0027] like Figure 3 As shown, it also includes a buffer pad 13. The buffer pad 13 is fixedly attached to the upper side of the fixed plate 5. When the eaves 4 is reset, the buffer pad 13 contacts the extension frame 2 and plays a buffering role, reducing the impact force between the fixed plate 5 and the extension frame 2 and avoiding damage to the components.

[0028] like Figure 3 As shown, it also includes an anti-pinch pad 14, which is fixedly connected between the fixed plate 5 and the movable plate 6. The anti-pinch pad 14 limits the movement distance of the movable plate 6 to prevent the user's fingers from being pinched during operation.

[0029] like Figure 2As shown, it also includes reflective tape 15, which is attached to the side of the extension frame 2. The reflective tape 15 serves as a warning in low light conditions, alerting people in the vicinity to the location of the tent.

[0030] like Figure 2 As shown, it also includes hooks 16. Hooks 16 are connected to the lower end of the eaves 4 for fixing the tarpaulin or other accessories, increasing the functionality and practicality of the tent.

[0031] like Figure 4 As shown, it also includes a roller 17, which is rotatably connected to the lower end of the extension frame 2. The rotation of the roller 17 effectively reduces the friction between the eaves 4 and the extension frame 2, making the unfolding and retraction of the eaves 4 smoother.

[0032] After unfolding the tent frame 1, the user holds the rubber sleeve 12 and pulls up the operating lever 11, compressing the third elastic element 9 and disengaging the locking block 10 from the square hole in the extension frame 2. The user then pulls down the eaves 4 using the operating lever 11 and hook 16. At this time, the movable plate 6 slides along the extension frame 2, and the first elastic element 3 is gradually stretched. When the movable plate 6 slides above the locking slot 8, the second elastic element 7 rebounds, pushing the movable plate 6 into the locking slot 8, thus securing the eaves 4. After releasing the operating lever 11 and hook 16, the first elastic element 3 remains stretched, and the third elastic element 9 rebounds, causing the locking block 10 to re-engage in the square hole, preventing the eaves 4 from accidentally sliding back into the extension frame 2.

[0033] The tent fabric can be easily secured via hook 16, while reflective tape 15 provides a warning in low light conditions, alerting those nearby to the tent's location. The eaves 4 contact the rollers 17 during sliding in and out; the rollers 17 effectively reduce friction, making operation smoother.

[0034] After the tent is used, the user pinches the fixed plate 5 and the movable plate 6, pushes the movable plate 6 upward, compresses the second elastic element 7, and causes the movable plate 6 to disengage from the slot 8. At this time, the rebound force of the first elastic element 3 pulls the eaves 4 back into the extension frame 2. Before the eaves 4 slides completely in, the user pushes the eaves 4, causing the locking block 10 to pass through the roller 17, which helps the locking block 10 overcome the elastic force of the third elastic element 9 and lock into the square hole, completing the storage of the eaves 4. The cushioning pad 13 contacts the extension frame 2 when the eaves 4 returns to its original position, providing a cushioning effect, and the anti-pinch pad 14 limits the movement distance of the movable plate 6, protecting the user's fingers from being pinched.
