[0020] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain this utility model and are not intended to limit this utility model.

[0021] A connection structure for connecting tarpaulin to the frame of a vehicle roof tent, such as Figures 1-5 As shown, the assembly includes a fixing seat 1 mounted on the upper and lower frames and a connector 2 mounted on the tarpaulin. The fixing seat 1 has a slot 11, and the connector includes a first connecting part 21 and a second connecting part 22. The second connecting part 22 is fixed to the tarpaulin, and the first connecting part 21 is engaged with the slot 11. During assembly, regardless of the circumference of the tarpaulin, there is no need for the complicated connection process of traditional through-hole structures. With the above structure, it is only necessary to first fix the second connecting part 22 to the tarpaulin, and then directly insert the first connecting part 21 into the slot 11 to complete the assembly.

[0022] In one embodiment, such as Figures 1-5 As shown, at least one set of inverted clip structures 23 are provided on both sides of the first connecting part 21. When the first connecting part 21 is inserted into the slot, it can be easily and quickly assembled with the slot 11 due to the forward insertion.

[0023] In the above embodiments, such as Figures 1-5 As shown, two sets of inverted locking structures 23 are provided. The two sets of inverted locking structures 23 can ensure the reliability of the connection between the connector 2 and the slot 11, while also ensuring that it can be forcibly pulled out during later maintenance.

[0024] In one embodiment, such as Figures 1-5 As shown, the inner wall of the slot 11 has a protruding edge 12 that mates with the first connecting part 21. The inverted snap structure 23 snaps onto the edge 12, providing a force to prevent the connector 2 from being pulled out.

[0025] In one embodiment, such as Figures 1-5 As shown, connector 2 is a rubber product.

[0026] In one embodiment, such as Figures 1-5 As shown, the mounting base 1 is made of stainless steel.

[0027] Connector 2 and mounting base 1 are made of different materials to prevent wear on mounting base 1. Connector 2, made of rubber, is low in cost, and the rubber part provides a certain degree of sealing when it mates with the slot 11. In addition, the rooftop tent is exposed to the sun for a long time, which will accelerate the aging and damage of the tent fabric. Therefore, it may need to be replaced after a few years of use. Connector 2 can be separated from the slot 11 by pulling.

[0028] In one embodiment, such as Figures 1-5 As shown, the first connecting part 21 has protruding baffles 24 on both sides. After the connecting part 2 is assembled with the fixing base 1, the baffles 24 are tightly attached to the side wall of the fixing base 1. The baffles 24 cooperate with the fixing base 1 to provide dust and water protection between the tarpaulin and the fixing base 1.

[0029] In one embodiment, such as Figures 1-5 As shown, the second connecting part 22 is fixed to the tarpaulin by stitching.

[0030] In one embodiment, such as Figures 1-5 As shown, in order to improve the strength of the two sections of the second connecting part 22 and the tarpaulin, two pieces of the second connecting part 22 are arranged in parallel at intervals, and the tarpaulin is arranged between the two pieces of the second connecting part 22.

[0031] When using this utility model, such as Figures 1-5As shown, the edge of the tarpaulin is placed between the two second connecting parts 22, and the tarpaulin is sewn to the second connecting parts 22 with stitches. After completion, the first connecting part 22 is inserted into the slot 11 of the fixing base 1. After the first connecting part 21 is engaged with the locking edge 12 by the buckle structure 23, the connection between the tarpaulin and the frame can be reliably completed.

[0032] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of implementation of the present utility model. Any modifications or equivalent substitutions to the present utility model without departing from the spirit and scope thereof should be covered within the protection scope of the claims of the present utility model.
