Abstract

This utility model relates to a tent frame with an overhanging eave, including a top pole assembly, upper and lower corner connecting seats, upper and lower middle connecting seats, uprights, and a side hinge assembly. The corner uprights are sleeved with the lower corner connecting seats, and have an upper corner connecting seat at their top; the middle uprights are sleeved with the lower middle connecting seats, and have an upper middle connecting seat at their top. One end of the top pole connects to the upper corner connecting seats and the upper middle connecting seats, and the other end is fixed via a side tent top pole connector. The side hinge assembly hinges each connecting seat in pairs. The upper corner connecting seats are movably sleeved with the eaves pole, and the upper middle connecting seats are linked to the eaves pole via an eaves pole limiting ring. When the tent is unfolded, the eaves pole automatically extends outward to form a stable eave. This utility model, through the linkage structure of the eaves pole, connecting seats, and limiting ring, achieves an integrated eaves extension without the need for external components, solving the problems of large storage volume, poor connection rigidity, and weak wind resistance of traditional tent extension components.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a tent frame, and more particularly to a tent frame with an overhanging eave. Background Technology

[0002] In traditional tent designs, the canopy structure is often limited to covering the main frame, lacking an outward-extending eaves function. This type of structure has significant shortcomings in terms of sun and rain protection: the short canopy edges cannot effectively block oblique rain or sunlight, making the tent interior susceptible to weather conditions; furthermore, users need to install external sunshades or extension fabrics to achieve shading, which is cumbersome and compromises the overall structural stability of the tent. In addition, some improvements attempt to extend the canopy area using independent support poles, but this design requires additional components, increasing storage volume, and lacks sufficient rigidity with the main frame, making it susceptible to deformation due to wind. To address these issues, there is an urgent need for an eaves structure integrated into the tent's main frame, allowing the eaves to extend without the need for additional components. Utility Model Content

The uprights at the corners are connected to the corner lower connectors. A corner upper connector is located at the top of each upright at a corner. The uprights in the middle are connected to the middle lower connectors. A middle upper connector is located at the top of each upright at a corner. One end of the top pole of the top pole assembly is connected to both the corner upper and middle upper connectors. The other end of the top pole is connected via a side tent top pole connector.

[0026] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0027] like Figures 1-7 As shown: This utility model provides a tent frame with an overhanging eave, including: a top pole assembly 1, corner upper connecting seats 3, corner lower connecting seats 4, middle upper connecting seats 5, middle lower connecting seats 6, uprights 8, and side hinge assembly 15. The uprights 8 located at the corners are sleeved with the corner lower connecting seats 4, and the corner upper connecting seats 3 are provided at the top of the uprights 8 located at the corners. The uprights 8 located in the middle are sleeved with the middle lower connecting seats 6, and the middle upper connecting seats 5 are provided at the top of the uprights 8 located at the corners. One end of the top pole 11 of the top pole assembly 1 is respectively connected to the corner upper connecting seats 3 and the middle upper connecting seats 6. Connecting seat 5 is connected, and the other end of the top pole 11 is connected through the side tent top pole connector 13. The side hinge assembly 15 connects the corner upper connecting seats 3 and the corner lower connecting seats 4 in pairs. The side hinge assembly 15 connects the corner upper connecting seats 3 and the corner lower connecting seats 4 in pairs with the middle upper connecting seats 5 and the middle lower connecting seats 6 in pairs. The corner upper connecting seat 3 is movably connected to the eaves pole 21. The middle upper connecting seat 5 is connected to the eaves pole limiting ring 7. The eaves pole limiting ring 7 is movably connected to the eaves pole 21. When the tent frame is open, the eaves pole 21 extends out of the tent frame body. Figures 1-3As shown, this utility model adds an eaves system to the traditional four-pole frame. The lower ends of each corner pole 8 are fitted onto the lower corner connecting seat 4, and the upper ends are fixed to the upper corner connecting seat 3; similarly, the middle pole 8 is fitted onto the lower middle connecting seat 6 and the top end is fixed to the upper middle connecting seat 5. The top pole 11 is hinged to the connecting positions of each corner / middle upper connecting seat, forming a canopy frame with the side tent top pole connector 13 or the middle tent top pole connector 14. The side hinge assembly 15 hinges the structures between the upper and lower connecting seats, and between the corners and the midpoint, allowing the tent to be folded and unfolded freely. The corner upper connecting seat 3 is movably fitted onto the eaves pole 21, and the middle upper connecting seat 5 is connected to the eaves pole limiting ring 7. The eaves pole limiting ring 7 is movably fitted onto the eaves pole 21. When the tent is opened, the eaves pole 21 is pushed outwards with the help of the connecting rods, forming an extended eaves to enhance sunshade and rain protection; when closed, it retracts into the frame with the help of the connecting rods.

[0028] Preferably, the eaves rod 21 and the connecting rod 22 are connected by a bending connector 23. The top rod assembly 1 includes: a top rod 11 and a top rod brace 12. The non-endpoint position of the top rod 11 and one end of the top rod brace 12 are hinged.

[0029] To synchronize the extension and retraction of the eaves pole, a bent connector 23 is installed between the eaves pole 21 and the connecting rod 22. This connector can both drive the connecting rod to rotate when extended and guide the eaves pole back to its original position when retracted. The other end of the connecting rod 22, located at the corner of the tent, is hinged to a non-endpoint position of the top pole diagonal brace 12. When the frame is opened, the top pole assembly 1 unfolds, and the diagonal brace 12 pushes the connecting rod 22 outward. The connecting rod 22 then drives the eaves pole 21 outward through the bent connector 23. The action is reversed when retracting. This mechanism ensures that the opening and closing of the eaves pole and the frame are synchronized, and it is simple to operate and requires no additional accessories.

[0030] Preferably, the corner upper connecting seat 3 is provided with: a first upper connecting position 31 for the side hinge, a second upper connecting position 32 for the side hinge, a sleeve hole 33 for the eaves rod, and a first top rod connecting position 34; the corner lower connecting seat 4 is provided with: a first top rod diagonal brace connecting position 41, a first lower connecting position 42 for the side hinge, and a second lower connecting position 43 for the side hinge; the first upper connecting position 31 for the side hinge is hinged to the upper side hinge of a set of side hinge groups 15, and the first lower connecting position 42 for the side hinge is hinged to the lower side hinge of a set of side hinge groups 15. Hinges are hinged; the second upper connection position 32 of the side hinge is hinged to the upper side hinge of another set of side hinge groups 15, and the second lower connection position 43 of the side hinge is hinged to the lower side hinge of another set of side hinge groups 15; the first top rod connection position 34 is connected to one end of the top rod 11 of the top rod group 1, the other end of the top rod diagonal brace 12 is connected to the first top rod diagonal brace connection position 41, one end of the connecting rod 22 is hinged to the non-endpoint position of the top rod diagonal brace 12, and the eaves rod 21 passes through the eaves rod sleeve hole 33.

[0031] The multi-connection layout of the upper and lower corner connecting seats allows the side hinge group 15 to be hinged at each of the four corners, ensuring the stability of the frame when it is opened. At the same time, the hinged connection between the sleeve hole 33 of the eaves rod 21 and the connecting rod 22 and the top rod diagonal brace 12 completes the entry and exit guidance and power transmission of the eaves rod 21 within the corner node, which saves space and avoids damage to the exposed mechanism.

[0032] Preferably, the middle upper connecting seat 5 is provided with: a limiting ring connecting position 51, a second top rod connecting position 52, a third top rod connecting position 53, a third upper connecting position of the side hinge 54, a fourth upper connecting position of the side hinge, and a fifth upper connecting position of the side hinge 55. The limiting ring connecting position 51 is connected to the eaves rod limiting ring 7, and the eaves rod 21 passes through the eaves rod limiting ring 7. The second top rod connecting position 52 is connected to one end of the top rod 11 of the top rod group 1 on one side. The third top rod connecting position 53 is connected to one end of the top rod 11 of the top rod group 1 on the other side. The third upper connecting position of the side hinge 54 is hinged to the side hinge at the upper end of the side hinge group 15 on one side. The fourth upper connecting position of the side hinge is hinged to the side hinge at the upper end of the side hinge group 15 on the other side. The fifth upper connecting position of the side hinge 55 is hinged to the side hinge at the upper end of the middle side hinge group 15.

[0033] Preferably, the middle lower connecting seat 6 is provided with: a second top rod inclined brace connecting position 61, a third top rod inclined brace connecting position 62, a third lower side hinge connecting position 63, a fourth lower side hinge connecting position 64, and a fifth lower side hinge connecting position 65. The second top rod inclined brace connecting position 61 is connected to the other end of the top rod inclined brace 12 of the top rod assembly 1 on one side, and the third top rod inclined brace connecting position 62 is connected to the other end of the top rod inclined brace 12 of the top rod assembly 1 on the other side. The third lower side hinge connecting position 65... The connecting position 63 is hinged to the lower end of the side hinge group 15 on one side, the fourth lower connecting position 64 of the side hinge is hinged to the lower end of the side hinge group 15 in the middle, the fifth lower connecting position 65 of the side hinge is hinged to the lower end of the side hinge group 15 on the other side, and the other end of the connecting rod 22, which is connected to the eaves rod 21 passing through the eaves rod limiting ring 7, is hinged to the lower end of the side hinge group 15 in the middle that is hinged to the fourth lower connecting position 64 of the side hinge.

[0034] The second top rod connection position 52 and the third top rod connection position 53 respectively connect to the left and right top rods 11 and the other two top rods 11 to connect with the middle tent top rod connector 14 to form the canopy frame and ensure the rigidity of the tent canopy; the third upper connection position 54 of the side hinge, the fourth upper connection position of the side hinge, and the fifth upper connection position 55 of the side hinge cooperate with the corresponding hinge group so that the middle side can be folded and can support the eaves load.

[0035] The middle lower connecting seat 6 is connected to the left and right diagonal braces 12 through the second top rod diagonal brace connecting position 61 and the third top rod diagonal brace connecting position 62, forming a lower diagonal brace system to improve the overall bending resistance and wind load resistance. The third lower connecting position 63, the fourth lower connecting position 64, and the fifth lower connecting position 65 of the side hinge are connected to the lower end of the side hinge group 15, so that the lower part of the middle side can cooperate with the upper hinge to form a complete folding hinge chain when folding and unfolding.

[0036] The limiting ring 7 is connected to the connecting position 51. The eaves pole 21, located in the middle of the tent, passes through the eaves pole limiting ring 7. The other end of the corresponding connecting rod 22 is hinged to the lower end of the side hinge assembly 15, which is hinged to the fourth lower connecting position 64 of the side hinge. When the frame is opened, the side hinge assembly 15 unfolds and pushes outward. The connecting rod 22 then drives the eaves pole 21 to push outward through the side hinge assembly 15. The action is reversed when closing. This mechanism ensures that the eaves pole and the frame open and close synchronously, is simple to operate, and requires no additional accessories.

[0037] This utility model achieves integrated eaves extension without external components through the linkage structure of the eaves pole 21, the connecting seat, and the eaves pole limiting ring 7, thus solving the problems of large storage volume, poor connection rigidity, and weak wind resistance of traditional tent extension components.

In particular, as long as there is no conflict in the mechanism, the features in the embodiments disclosed in the present invention can be combined with each other in any way. The lack of an exhaustive description of these combinations in this specification is merely for the sake of brevity and resource conservation. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed herein, but includes all technical solutions falling within the scope of the claims.
