The group of main support rods comprises a rear rod 21 and several rear lateral rods 22, 23 provided on the left and right sides of the rear rod 21. The rear rod 21 is connected to the base 1, and the rear lateral rods 22, 23 are rotatably connected to the base 1. In this way, the several rear lateral rods 22, 23 can switch between an unfolded position and a folded position to perform a folding function for the tent. The several rear lateral rods 22, 23 rotate to unfold relative to each other. The method for setting up the tent. The front support rod group comprises several front support rods 31, 32 rotatably connected to the base, such that the front support rods 31 can switch between an extended and a folded position. When the front support rod group 3 and the main support rod group are in the extended positions, the several rear side rods 22, 23 of the main support rod group are extended relative to each other to support a main body of the tent, and the front support rods are extended 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 together to form a folded beam-like structure.The front support rod group 3 and the main support rod group provided by this embodiment are provided to be offset from each other in a top-to-bottom 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 degree of rotational freedom of the front support rod 3 resolves the existing problem of canvas (tent surface) tension caused by a limited rotation of the front support rod 3. Furthermore, since the front support rods 31, 32 and the main support rod group rotate independently of each other, the tent assembly and folding processes 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 articulated with the main rod for support on the ground.

[0043] In certain 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, a respective independent rotation of the front support rod group and the main support rod group is achieved.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 achieve a respective independent free rotation of the front support rod group and the main support rod group.

This reduces the rotation radius of the front support rod 3, the configuration of the front support rod 3 is not affected by product size, and assembly and folding are convenient. Specifically, the upper base 11 is mounted in an intermediate position on the upper part of the lower base 12. The upper base 11 has several top-layer rotatable connection positions, and the front support rods 31 and 32 are rotatably connected to the top-layer rotatable connection positions in a one-to-one correspondence. Specifically, there are two top-layer rotatable connection positions 111 and 112 and two front support rods 31 and 32, with the two front support rods 31 and 32, left and right, 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. The two left and right sides of the lower base 12 are respectively provided with several lower layer rotating connection positions 122, 123, and the several rear side rods 22, 23 are rotatably connected to the lower layer rotating connection 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], during tent assembly, the main support rod group on one rear side is first unfolded to form a fan-shaped frame, and then the front support rods rotate from the rear side to the front side, thus completing the unfolding of the upper intermediate structure.
