[0027] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application. In addition, the technical solutions of various embodiments can be combined with each other, but this must be based on the ability of those of ordinary skill in the art to implement them.

[0028] Reference Figure 1-9As shown, the arm support structure of the tent includes a tent body 1 and an arm assembly 2. The connecting ends of the arm assembly 2 are installed on both sides of the tent body 1. It also includes a mounting base 3, which is disposed on the tent body 1. The connecting ends of the arm assembly 2 are movable on the mounting base 3. A clamping member 4 is disposed on the mounting base 3. Adjusting the clamping member 4 can lift and support the movable arm assembly 2.

[0029] Specifically, to ensure the installation of the mounting base 3 on the canopy 1, mounting plates 5 are provided on both sides of the canopy 1. The mounting plates 5 are provided with circular holes for the mounting base 3 to be inserted. This arrangement also ensures that the mounting base 3 can rotate on the mounting plates 5. The end of the mounting base 3 is inserted into the circular hole on the mounting plate 5. When the mounting base 3 rotates, the arm assembly 2 can also rotate synchronously. Furthermore, an adjusting member 6 is provided on the mounting base 3. The function of the adjusting member 6 is to enable the mounting base 3 to rotate on the mounting plate 5 and to form a locked state after rotation.

[0030] Specifically, the mounting base 3 is composed of an embedded part 31 and an external part 32. The embedded part 31 is circular and inserted into the circular hole. The external part 32 is located on the outside of the mounting plate 5. To ensure that the external part 32 does not enter the inside of the mounting plate 5, the diameter of the external part 32 is larger than the circular hole. The connecting end of the arm assembly 2 is located on the embedded part 31. The adjusting member 6 is located on the external part 32. At the same time, the mounting base 3 is provided with an opening 33 from the external part 32 to the embedded part 31. The abutting member 4 is located in the area of ​​the embedded part 31 within the opening 33.

[0031] It should be noted that, in order to facilitate the installation of the arm assembly 2 on the embedding part 31, symmetrical stepped surfaces 311 are provided on the embedding part 31, and the connecting end of the arm assembly 2 is U-shaped. By inserting the two stepped surfaces 311 of the embedding part 31 into the U-shaped end, a through groove needs to be provided in the longitudinal direction perpendicular to the stepped surfaces 311 and the end of the arm assembly 2. This includes a first through groove 3111 provided on the embedding part 31 and a second through groove 21 provided on the arm assembly 2. The channel of the first through groove 3111 increases from top to bottom, and the second through groove 21 has the same inner diameter. A connecting rod 7 is provided and inserted into the first through groove 3111 and the second through groove 21 from top to bottom. The upper end of the connecting rod 7 is set to have a diameter larger than the limiting end of the second through groove 21.

[0032] Specifically, the first through groove 3111 has a circular opening on the upper end and an oval opening on the lower end. One side of the circular opening and the oval opening are aligned. The connecting rod 7 is inserted from one side of the circular opening to one side of the oval opening. The lower end of the connecting rod 7 can be offset to the other side of the oval opening. Here, the channel increasing direction of the first through groove 3111 is set to the length direction of the embedded part 31. The movable end of the connecting rod 7 moves in the extension direction of the embedded part 31. A threaded hole aligned with one side of the oval opening is provided in the opening 33. The threaded hole communicates with the first through groove 3111. The abutment 4 is screwed into the threaded hole and contacts the connecting rod 7, so that the lower end of the connecting rod 7 is pressed against the groove wall at the oval opening.

[0033] Furthermore, a notch 71 is provided on the connecting rod 7 at the increasing end of the first through groove 3111. The end of the abutment 4 is placed in the notch 71. The notch 71 is annular. This is to ensure that the abutment 4 can be embedded in the notch 71 after the connecting rod 7 is inserted. Similarly, the notch 71 is used to limit the lower end of the connecting rod 7. Together with the limiting end of the upper end of the connecting rod 7, it ensures that the connecting rod 7 will not come out of the first through groove 3111 and the second through groove 21. At the same time, this setting also ensures that the abutment 4 has an anti-detachment effect during the clamping process.

[0034] Simultaneously, it is also necessary to ensure that the mounting base 3 can be rotated and adjusted on the mounting plate 5. More specifically, the external part 32 includes a first part 321 that is concentrically arranged with the embedded part 31, and a second part 322 that is eccentrically arranged with the embedded part 31. The adjustment member 6 is provided on the eccentric side, and the adjustment function can be completed by setting the simplest structure. The adjustment member 6 cooperates with the mounting plate 5. A fixing member 51 is provided on the mounting plate 5. The fixing member 51 can be integrally set with the mounting plate 5, or it can be set as a fastening nail fastened to the mounting plate 5. Both the adjustment member 6 and the fixing member 51 are provided in the second part 322.

[0035] Specifically, at least one adjusting member 6 is provided, preferably two adjusting members 6 are provided. A through hole is provided in the longitudinal direction perpendicular to the second part 322. The two adjusting members 6 are screwed in from the upper and lower ends respectively. The ends of the two adjusting members 6 abut against the fixing member 51. An adjusting groove 3221 is provided in the middle region of the second part 322, which is horizontally perpendicular to the second part 322. The fixing member 51 is screwed into the adjusting groove 3221 in a direction perpendicular to the mounting plate 5. When the mounting base 3 rotates, the fixing member 51 moves relative to each other in the adjusting groove 3221.

[0036] To ensure that the mounting base 3 detaches from the mounting plate 5, a limiting member 3211 is provided at the first part 321 to restrict the mounting base 3 from detaching outward. At the same time, an avoidance groove 3212 is provided at the first part 321. The limiting member 3211 is located in the avoidance groove 3212. The limiting member 3211 is not used to make the external part 32 stick tightly to the mounting plate 5, but only to restrict the mounting base 3 from moving outward in the direction of the mounting plate 5. The avoidance groove 3212 is an arc-shaped groove.

[0037] The working process of this utility model is as follows: When installing the arm assembly 2, the connecting end of the arm assembly 2 is inserted into the embedding part 31, and the connecting rod 7 is inserted into the arm assembly 2 and the embedding part 31 from top to bottom. The abutment 4 is screwed into the threaded hole in the opening 33. After the abutment 4 rotates inward, it abuts against the notch 71 at the lower end of the connecting rod 7. By lifting the arm assembly 2 and continuing to rotate the abutment 4 inward, the lower end of the connecting rod 7 is offset towards the extended side of the embedding part 31, so that the connecting rod 7 is tilted, thereby slightly lifting the arm assembly 2 upward for support.
