Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tent technology, specifically to a rigid inflatable vehicle roof tent. Background Technology

[0002] With economic growth and rising per capita income, the number of private cars has continued to grow, and self-driving tours have become a new form of tourism. To meet people's needs for convenience when traveling by car, rooftop tents attached to vehicles are becoming increasingly popular. Rooftop tents are tents that can be set up on the roof of a car. Because they are not close to the ground like other tents, they are less susceptible to the intrusion of ground moisture and are more comfortable to use.

[0003] Traditional hard-shell roof tents typically use rigid materials (such as fiberglass or aluminum alloy) for the roof and base. Their advantages include a stable structure, good wind resistance, an attractive appearance, and a relatively compact size when folded. However, their significant disadvantage is: Heavy weight: The rigid materials result in a large overall weight, increasing vehicle fuel consumption and handling burden.

[0004] Low utilization of storage space: The rigid top cover and support structure occupy a fixed and large space when folded up, which limits the effective volume inside the tent or leads to an increase in the overall height.

[0005] Not convenient to unfold / fold: It usually requires manually setting up support rods or unfolding complex hinge mechanisms, which is relatively cumbersome and time-consuming. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a rigid inflatable vehicle roof tent to solve the above-mentioned problems.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A rigid inflatable roof tent includes a folding platform, an inflatable frame, an upper shell, and a tent fabric. The inflatable frame is mounted on the folding platform to support and unfold the tent fabric. The upper shell is rotatably connected to one side of the folding platform. When the roof tent is unfolded for use, the upper shell flips to form an angle with the folding platform and cooperates with the inflatable frame to support and unfold the tent fabric. When the roof tent is folded for storage, the upper shell rotates to cover the folding platform and cooperates with the folding platform to form a storage space for accommodating the inflatable frame and the tent fabric.

[0008] Preferably, the folding platform includes a fixed platform, a flipping platform, and a connecting plate. The fixed platform and the flipping platform are rotatably connected to the front and rear sides of the connecting plate, respectively. Each of the fixed platform and the flipping platform is provided with a support member on the side adjacent to the connecting plate to provide upward support for the bottom of the connecting plate in the unfolded state. The upper shell is rotatably connected to the fixed platform on the side opposite to the flipping platform.

[0009] Preferably, the bottom ends of a set of telescopic rods are rotatably connected to the left and right sides of the fixed platform, and the top ends of the telescopic rods are rotatably connected to the upper housing to cooperate in supporting the upper housing and the fixed platform in an unfolded state forming an angle.

[0010] Preferably, the inflatable frame is formed by bending an inflatable pipe that runs through the entire structure and is closed at both ends.

[0011] Preferably, the inflatable frame includes a front support and a rear support respectively disposed above the front and rear sides of the flipping platform. The first horizontal tube is connected between the bottom ends of the front support and the rear support on the same side. The first horizontal tube is parallel to and attached to the top of the flipping platform and is bound to the flipping platform by webbing.

[0012] Preferably, both the front support and the rear support are inclined inverted n-shaped bends, and the upper ends of both the front support and the rear support are inclined in a direction away from the central vertical plane of the flipping table.

[0013] Preferably, the system also includes a telescopic staircase, with a hinge seat provided on one side of the tilting platform, and the top of the telescopic staircase hinged to the hinge seat via a hinge joint.

[0014] Preferably, the tent fabric is bound to the inflatable frame and the upper shell by webbing.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, this utility model has the following advantages compared with the prior art: 1. This utility model discloses a rigid inflatable car roof tent. In the unfolded state, the upper shell flips and forms a stable angle with the folding platform, which together with the inflatable frame constitutes the main support frame of the tent, significantly enhancing the overall rigidity and wind resistance. At the same time, the inflatable frame, as the core support, significantly reduces the overall weight, and achieves quick unfolding and storage (simply inflating and deflating). The operation is convenient and efficient, overcoming the shortcomings of traditional rigid tents being bulky and cumbersome to operate, and also solving the problem of pure inflatable tents lacking rigid protection after storage.

[0016] 2. This utility model provides a rigid inflatable roof tent. By setting up a rigid upper shell and a folding platform, it forms a sturdy and enclosed storage space when folded up. This allows all core components to be efficiently housed within the rigid storage space formed by the upper shell and the folding platform. When folded up, it has a regular shape similar to a rigid suitcase. It is compact, easy to fix on the roof of the vehicle, has low wind resistance, and effectively protects the internal inflatable frame and tent fabric from compression, wear, pollution, and the effects of severe weather, greatly improving the product's durability and transportation safety.

Example

[0020] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 As shown, this utility model discloses a rigid inflatable roof tent, including a folding platform 1, an inflatable frame 2, an upper shell 3, and a tent fabric 4. The inflatable frame 2 is set on the folding platform 1 to support and unfold the tent fabric 4. The upper shell 3 is made of a rigid shell material and is a square cover with a hollow bottom. The upper shell 3 is rotatably connected to one side of the folding platform 1. When the roof tent is unfolded for use, the upper shell 3 flips to form an angle with the folding platform 1 and cooperates with the inflatable frame 2 to support and unfold the tent fabric 4. When the roof tent is folded for storage, the upper shell 3 rotates to cover the folding platform 1 and cooperates with the folding platform 1 to form a storage space to accommodate the inflatable frame 2 and the tent fabric 4.

[0021] The folding platform 1 includes a fixed platform 11, a flipping platform 12, and a connecting plate 13. The fixed platform 11 and the flipping platform 12 are respectively connected to the front and rear sides of the connecting plate 13 by hinges. The fixed platform 11 and the flipping platform 12 are each provided with a support member 14 on the side adjacent to the connecting plate 13 to provide upward support to the bottom of the connecting plate 13 in the unfolded state. The upper shell 3 is connected to the fixed platform 11 on the side opposite to the flipping platform 12 by hinges. The support member 14 provides upward support to the bottom of the connecting plate 13 after unfolding, ensuring that the middle of the folding platform 1 is flat and stable and preventing it from sinking.

[0022] The bottom ends of a set of telescopic rods 15 are rotatably connected to the left and right sides of the fixed platform 11, and the top ends of the telescopic rods 15 are rotatably connected to the upper housing 3 to support the upper housing 3 in its unfolded state, forming an angle with the fixed platform 11. The telescopic rods 15 form an adjustable rigid support between the fixed platform 11 and the upper housing 3, further locking the unfolding angle of the upper housing 3 and greatly improving the stability of the top.

[0023] The inflatable frame 2 is formed by bending an inflatable pipe that runs through the entire structure and is closed at both ends. An air valve is installed on the inflatable pipe to inflate or deflate the air.

[0024] The inflatable frame 2 includes a front support 21 and a rear support 22 respectively positioned above the front and rear sides of the tilting platform 12, forming a stable spatial arched support structure and optimizing the force distribution. A first horizontal tube 23 is connected between the bottom ends of the front support 21 and the rear support 22 on the same side. The first horizontal tube 23 is parallel to and attached to the tilting platform 12 and bound to the tilting platform 12 by webbing, effectively preventing the inflatable frame 2 from sliding forward, backward, or left, right on the tilting platform 12, and ensuring that the inflatable frame 2 stably supports the tent fabric 4 in the predetermined position.

[0025] The tent fabric 4 is bound to the inflatable frame 2 and the upper shell 3 by webbing, which makes the connection firm and not easy to loosen, ensuring that the tent fabric is always in a taut state.

[0026] Both the front support 21 and the rear support 22 are inclined inverted N-shaped bends, and the upper ends of both are inclined away from the vertical plane of the center of the tilting table 12. This not only provides a spacious interior (avoiding the feeling of confinement caused by vertical sidewalls), but their outward-inclined structure also enhances lateral stability. The height of the rear support 22 is greater than the height of the front support 21. It also includes a telescopic staircase 5. A hinge seat 16 is provided on one side of the flip platform 12. The top of the telescopic staircase 5 is hinged to the hinge seat 16 through the hinge joint 51, which makes it easy to adjust the angle and extend and retract, making it convenient for users to get on and off the tent. The telescopic staircase 5 can also be stored in the storage space formed by the upper shell 3 and the folding platform 1 after being stored.

[0027] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model, but the scope of protection of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model. Therefore, the scope of protection of this utility model should be determined by the scope of the claims.
