SLIDING DOOR EDGE STRUCTURE FOR AN OPEN-AIR TENT

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present invention pertains to the field of outdoor supplies and specifically relates to a sliding door border structure for an outdoor tent.BACKGROUND ART

[0002] Outdoor sliding-door tents are outdoor tent products. In general, a rack constitutes the main body of an outdoor sliding-door tent, the top of the rack has a canopy structure that can be opened and closed, sliding door assemblies are provided around the rack, each sliding door assembly comprises a door frame structure fixed on the rack and sliding doors that can be opened and closed on the door frame structure, and each sliding door comprises a border structure and a door body embedded in the border structure. A conventional border structure generally comprises two horizontal sliding door border tubes and two vertical sliding door border tubes. The prior art has the following problems: 1. The assembly of the four borders is troublesome. In particular, when screws are used for fixation, it is difficult to align the positions of the holes. As the border structure is a rectangular structure, it will be impossible to correctly assemble all borders when the assembly of a corner has an error; 2. It is noisy to open or close a sliding door assembly; 3. The structure of the vertical sliding door borders is vertically asymmetrical, resulting in a complex manufacturing process; 4. The chute tubes are groove tube structures that are integrated with the vertical sliding door border tubes of the sliding door. The chute tubes are used to contact the door frame or another sliding door when the present sliding door is closed, and have a sealing effect. As only some of the vertical sliding door border tubes need to be provided with chute tubes, normally both vertical sliding door border tubes with chute tubes and vertical sliding door border tubes without chute tubes need to be manufactured, adding difficulties to the manufacturing. Further, the vertical sliding door border tubes with chute tubes and the vertical sliding door border tubes without chute tubes are not interchangeable, causing inconvenience for assembly.
