The several rear side rods 22, 23 rotate to unfold relative to each other way of erecting the tent. The front support rod group has several front support rods 31, 32 rotatably connected to the base, such that the front support rods 31 can switch between an unfolded position and a folded position. When the front support rod group 3 and the main support rod group are in the unfolded positions, the several rear side rods 22, 23 of the main support rod group are unfolded relative to each other to support a main body of the tent, and the front support rods are unfolded to support a front side of the tent. When the front support rod group 3 and the main support rod group are in the folded positions, the rear side rods 22, 23, the rear rod 21 and the front support rods 31, 32 are close to each other to form a bundle-like folded structure.The front support rod group 3 and the main support rod group provided by the present embodiment are provided to be offset from each other in an up-down direction, in this way, the front support rod group 3 can rotate freely without being restricted by the main support rod group, and an expansion of one rotational degree of freedom of the front support rod 3 solves the existing problem of pulling a canvas (tent surface) caused by limited rotation of the front support rod 3. In addition, since the front support rods 31, 32 and the main support rod group rotate independently of each other, the methods of setting up and folding the tent are also faster and more convenient.

[0042] Specifically, the rear rod 21 and the rear side rods 22, 23 each comprise a main rod rotatably connected to the base and an auxiliary rod hinged with the main rod for support on the ground.

[0043] In some embodiments of the present invention, the base comprises an upper base 11 and a lower base 12 connected under the upper base 11; one of the front support rod group 3 and the main support rod group is connected to the upper base 11, and the other is connected to the lower base 12; and by configuring the base to have a two-layer structure, respective independent rotation of the front support rod group and the main support rod group is realized.It is understood that in some examples, the front support rod group is connected to the upper base 11, and the main support rod group is connected to the lower base 12; in some other examples, the main support rod group is connected to the upper base 11, and the front support rod group is connected to the lower base 12, and both embodiments can realize respective independent free rotation of the front support rod group and the main support rod group.

[0044] In some preferable embodiments, a projection of the upper base 11 in a vertical direction falls on the lower base 12, and the group of rods The front support rod 3 is rotatably connected to the upper base, in this way, a rotation radius of the front support rod 3 is reduced, the configuration of the front support rod 3 is not affected by a product size, and the mounting and folding are convenient. Specifically, the upper base 11 is mounted in an intermediate position of an upper portion of the lower base 12, the upper base 11 is provided with several upper-layer rotatable connection positions, and the front support rods 31, 32 are rotatably connected to the upper-layer rotatable connection positions in a one-to-one correspondence. Specifically, there are two upper-layer rotatable connection positions 111, 112 and two front support rods 31, 32, and the two left and right front support rods 31, 32 are arranged symmetrically.

[0045] In the present embodiment, the rear rod 21 is fixedly connected in a connecting hole 121 of the lower base in an intermediate position, two left and right sides of the lower base 12 are respectively provided with several lower layer rotating connecting positions 122, 123, and the several rear side rods 22, 23 are rotatably connected to the lower layer rotating connecting positions 122, 123 such that the rear side rods can be folded or unfolded relative to the rear rod. Specifically, with reference to [Fig.5], when setting up the tent, the group of main support rods in a rear side is unfolded first to form a fan-shaped skeleton, and then the front support rods rotate from the rear side to a front side, thereby completing the unfolding of the upper intermediate structure.

[0046] Embodiment 2

[0047] [Fig.6] and [Fig.7] show the present embodiment providing a tent having a soft surface 100 of the tent and the upper intermediate structure provided by Embodiment 1. A front side of the soft surface 100 is provided with several locking pieces 4, and the front support rods are supported toward the front side of the soft surface by support sleeves 101 and locked by the locking pieces 4. The independently rotatable front support rods 31, 32 provided by the present embodiment, cooperating with the locking pieces 4, can adjust the tension of the canvas, so that the tent can reach a good state when it is folded and unfolded.

[0048] Specifically, with reference to [Fig.8], the locking pieces 4 each comprise an elastic cord 41 connected to a front edge of the flexible surface and a fastener 42 provided on the elastic cord, the front support rods 31, 32 are connected to fasteners 42 and locked by elastic cords 4L

[0049] With reference to [Fig.l] and [Fig.6], when setting up the tent, the rear side rods 22, 23 and the rear rod 21 are unfolded first to form a skeleton in fan shape, then the front support rods 31, 32 rotate from a rear side to a front side, free ends of the front support rods 31, 32 are fixed on the fasteners 42 at the front edge of the soft surface of the tent, then sheathed by front support rod sleeves, and finally the elastic cords 41 under the fasteners 42 are pulled to complete the assembly of the tent; otherwise, it is folded.

[0050] In order to achieve the mounting and folding functions and facilitate the connection between the front support rods and the fasteners, the front support rods each comprise an arc-shaped section and a flat and straight section, the flat and straight section being configured to be connected by the fastener.
