Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present disclosure relates to the technical field of outdoor tents, in particular to an outdoor folding tent with a tent pole stabilizing structure.BACKGROUND

[0002] Outdoor tents come in a variety of structural forms, including folding tents that can be folded for storage, and fixed tents that are placed directly in outdoor courtyards or parks. The folding tent is a kind of tent that can be quickly mounted, is lightweight, durable and convenient to carry, and can be freely folded and unfolded, making it suitable for a variety of different environments and terrains. It is simple and stable. Moreover, it is convenient to disassemble, assemble and carry, and thus can be quickly folded when it needs to be moved.

[0003] The frame of a folding tent usually includes tent leg assemblies and a tent canopy frame for supporting and mounting tent fabric. Since the folding tent needs to be folded for storage, tent top poles and tent support poles in the tent canopy frame are usually of a folding structure. In existing folding tents, the end parts of the tent top poles are usually correspondingly in hinged fit with those of the tent support poles, resulting in moderate stability at the hinge positions of the end parts after the tent top poles and the tent support poles are unfolded. Consequently, the unfolding effect of the tent fabric is mediocre, and there exist defects in use.

[0004] In addition, for some existing folding tents, in order to increase the sun-shading area after the tent is unfolded, an eave-style tent with an eave structure has emerged. Extended eave poles are disposed at the top corner of the tent, and thus the sun-shading area can be increased through surrounding edges disposed on the eave poles.

[0005] For existing eave structures, eave poles are usually pivotally connected or inserted into top poles of tent roof brackets, so as to form an outward eave structure. For example, disclosed in Patent Application No. CN209443880U is an eave bracket structure of a tent, fixed on leg tubes of the tent, and including two eave poles and one fixing pole, where the two ends of the fixing pole are connected to the two eave poles respectively, and the two eave poles are connected to the two leg tubes of the tent through connecting pieces respectively; and the connecting piece includes a first clamping arm, a second clamping arm, a rotating head, and a fixing bolt. However, two steps are required for unfolding or folding during use. That is, during unfolding, the main bracket of the tent needs to be unfolded first, and then the eave poles need to be snapped apart and pulled out one by one, or the eave frame needs to be assembled separately. Since the eave poles are at a relatively high position, the operation is inconvenient. The folding process is the reverse and has the same problem.

[0006] In view of this, disclosed in Patent Application No. CN204238639U is an eave frame mechanism of a folding tent, including a tent frame and eave poles, where the tent frame includes vertical poles, tent poles, and support poles, fixing seats are fixedly disposed at the top ends of the vertical poles, sliding seats capable of sliding up and down along the vertical poles are slidably connected to the vertical poles, the ends of the tent poles are pivotally connected to the fixing seats, the support poles have first ends pivotally connected to the sliding seats and second ends pivotally connected to the tent poles, and the sliding seats can slide up and down along the vertical poles to drive the tent frame to be unfolded or folded; the fixing seats are provided with sliding tracks; and connecting seats are slidably connected to the support poles, the first ends of the eave poles are pivotally connected to the connecting seats, and the second ends of the eave poles can be movably connected to the sliding tracks in an extending or retracting manner so as to drive the eave poles to be unfolded or folded. Although automatic extension and retraction of eaves can be achieved, the eave poles need to be limited in extension and retraction through the sliding tracks (of a long hole structure). However, the sliding tracks and the eave poles are usually in clearance fit. As a result, when the folding tent is in a fully unfolded state, the eave poles are prone to obvious shaking, especially in windy conditions. In combination with the tent fabric, it is very likely to cause the folding tent to shake, which seriously affects the usage experience. In addition, the connecting seats slide along the support poles. When in the fully unfolded state, the connecting seats are prone to backsliding due to external forces, which affects the unfolding effect of the eave poles.

[0007] In addition, disclosed in Patent Application No. CN112031514A is a folding tent with an automatic telescopic eave structure, including tent leg tubes, tent top poles, and support poles, where mounting seats are cooperatively disposed at the upper ends of the tent leg tubes, one end of each of the tent top poles is hinged to each of the mounting seats, leg tube sliding seats are movable along the tent leg tubes and are cooperatively disposed on the tent leg tubes and configured to cooperate with the support poles, the front ends of the support poles are hinged to the tent top poles to support or retract the tent top poles, eave sliding sleeves are movable relative to the mounting seats and are disposed on the mounting seats and configured to cooperate with eave poles, the eave poles can slide along the eave sliding sleeves to extend outward or retract inward, the eave poles include first eave poles and second eave poles deflected relative to the first eave poles, and one end of each of the second eave poles is configured to be in movable fit with each of the support poles.

[0008] However, the above technical solution includes the solution previously applied for by the applicant. During use, when the connecting seats slide along the support poles, since the eave poles need to be driven to extend outward, the eave poles are prone to getting stuck during extension, resulting in unreliable extension and retraction.SUMMARY

[0009] In view of the above problems, the present disclosure aims to provide an outdoor folding tent with a tent pole stabilizing structure. stabilizing seats and hinge seats are optimized in structure, so that tent top poles and tent support poles have good stability after being unfolded, thus improving the unfolding effect of the tent.

[0020] The eave poles are of an integral or split structure and are provided with arc-shaped inflection points or bent inflection points, and after the eave poles complete the extension of the eaves, the arc-shaped inflection points or the bent inflection points are close to or located at inner end ports of the eave sleeves.

[0055] Based on Embodiment 1, as shown in FIG. 5 to FIG. 15, an outdoor folding tent with a tent pole stabilizing structure provided in the present disclosure further includes an eave structure, which includes tent leg tubes 1 and tent support poles 201. In the prior art, a common folding tent includes four tent leg tubes 1 and four tent support poles 201 extending from upper ends of the tent leg tubes 1 towards a center. Usually, folding side pole assemblies are further cooperatively disposed between the tent leg tubes 1. The tent support poles 201 are usually formed by hinging two or more folding poles. The structure of the folding tent is a common structure in the prior art, which can be classified into a folding tent with a center lock, a business tent with long top poles at upper and middle parts, an ordinary folding tent unlocked by sliding seats on leg tubes, etc. Moreover, the folding tent may have two or more tent roofs.

[0056] Mounting seats 4 are disposed at upper parts of the tent leg tubes 1, one end of each of the tent support poles 201 is cooperatively mounted with each of the mounting seats 4, sliding seats 7 capable of sliding up and down along the tent leg tubes 1 are further disposed on the tent leg tubes 1, diagonal poles 6 are disposed on the sliding seats 7 in a hinged fit manner, and the other end of each of the diagonal poles 6 is in hinged fit with each of the tent support poles 201. Usually, the diagonal poles 6 are in hinged fit with the outermost folding poles of the tent support poles 201, where the tent support poles 201 are configured to support tent fabric at a top of the tent.

[0057] Based on the above, linkage rods 8 are optimally designed in the present disclosure, where inner ends of the linkage rods 8 are end parts biased towards the center of the folding tent, and outer ends thereof are end parts biased towards an exterior of the folding tent. In combination with the above structure of the folding tent, it is provided with an automatic eave structure, allowing the folding tent to have an eave mechanism, thereby increasing the sun-shading area, and improving the overall usage experience.

[0058] One end of each of the linkage rods 8 is configured to be in hinged fit with each of the tent support poles 201, hinge positions on the tent support poles 201 are located on the outermost folding poles, and hinge points of the linkage rods 8 and the tent support poles 201 are located inside hinge points of the diagonal poles 6 and the tent support poles 201, where the center of the folding tent is an interior. To achieve the hinged connection between the inner end parts of the linkage rods 8 and the tent support poles 201, the hinge points are closer to the central region of the folding tent than the hinge points of the diagonal poles 6 and the tent support poles 201. This design feature is to avoid interference to the diagonal poles 6 by the linkage rods 8 during the process of being driven by the tent support poles 201, and meanwhile it is more conducive to pulling eave poles 3.

[0059] A position close to or located at the outer end part of each of the linkage rods 8 is hinged to one end of each of the eave poles 3. The hinge positions of the linkage rods 8 and the eave poles 3 can be adjusted according to the eave length of the eave poles 3. In addition, different hinge positions of the eave poles and the linkage rods 8 can also be selected according to the shape of the eave poles 3. The linkage rods 8 and the eave poles 3 can be directly mounted through hinge shafts or cooperatively mounted by using hinge seats during hinged connection. Gaskets can be disposed on hinge components of the linkage rods 8 and the eave poles 3 to form spacing isolation, which can avoid bumping interference during folding or unfolding. Referring to the figures, each of the eave poles 3 may be a straight pole.

[0060] In this embodiment, when the folding tent is unfolded, the tent support poles 201 drives the linkage rods 8 to extend upward, and the linkage rods 8 pull the eave poles 3 to complete extension of eaves. Specifically, when the folding tent is in a retracted state, the hinge positions between the mounting seats 4 and the corresponding folding poles of the tent support poles 201 usually configured to be hinged to the diagonal poles 6 and the linkage rods 8 are usually located at the upper end and are in a vertical direction, usually not completely vertical, and the other end of each of the folding poles is located at the lower end. Meanwhile, a center lock or a top plate is usually in the center of the folding tent, where the top plate is configured to be in hinged fit with the end parts of the innermost tent support poles 201. When the folding tent is opened, the center of the folding tent moves upward from the lowest position, and the folding poles of the tent support poles 201 extend from the folded state to the unfolded state. The corresponding outermost folding poles of the folding support poles 201 move, so that the folding poles change from the original vertical state to a horizontal state. As the lower ends of the tent support poles 201 hinged to the diagonal poles 6 and the linkage rods 8 continuously move upward, the diagonal poles 6 and the linkage rods 8 are driven to move, so that the diagonal poles 6 and the linkage rods 8 also change from the vertical state to a horizontal state. The diagonal poles 6 drive the sliding seats 7 to move upward along the tent leg tubes 1 to complete unfolding of the entire folding tent. During this period, the linkage rods 8 are driven by the tent support poles 201, so that the other end of each of the linkage rods 8 continuously moves upward. The linkage rods 8 and the eave poles 3 are in a V-shaped folding state with a small opening and closing angle. With the pulling of the linkage rods 8, an angle between the linkage rods 8 and the eave poles 3 continuously increases, usually changing from an acute angle to an obtuse angle, usually with a maximum opening and closing angle of less than 180°, so that the lower ends of the eave poles 3 continuously move upward, and the upper ends of the eave poles 3 continuously extend outward until the folding tent is completely unfolded.

[0061] In this embodiment, when the folding tent retracts, the tent support poles 201 retracts and thus drives the linkage rods 8 to retract, making the eave poles 3 complete retraction. Specifically, when the folding tent is in an unfolded state, the center of the folding tent moves downward from the highest position, and the folding poles of the tent support poles 201 retract from the unfolded state to the folded state. The outermost folding poles move correspondingly, so that the folding poles change from the original nearly horizontal state to a vertical state. The tent support poles 201 hinged to the diagonal poles 6 and the linkage rods 8 continuously move downward and thus drive the diagonal poles 6 and the linkage rods 8 to move, so that the diagonal poles 6 and the linkage rods 8 also change from the original nearly horizontal state to a vertical state. The diagonal poles 6 drive the sliding seats 7 to move downward along the tent leg tubes 1 to complete retraction of the entire folding tent. During this period, the linkage rods 8 are driven by the folding support poles 201, so that the other end of each of the linkage rods 8 continuously moves downward. The linkage rods 8 and the eave poles 3 are in a V-shaped folding state with a large opening and closing angle. With the pulling of the linkage rods 8, an angle between the linkage rods 8 and the eave poles 3 continuously decreases, usually changing from an obtuse angle to an acute angle, usually with a minimum opening and closing angle of greater than 0°, so that the outer ends of the eave poles 3 continuously retract inward until the folding tent is completely folded.

[0062] In one of preferred embodiments, middles of the eave poles 3 are cooperatively sleeved with eave sleeves 41, the eave sleeves 41 are hinged to the mounting seats 4 at the upper parts of the tent leg tubes 1, the eave sleeves 41 allow the eave poles 3 to slide freely in inner holes thereof, and the eave sleeves 41 can freely swing around the hinge points. Specifically, the eave sleeves 41 are hingedly mounted on the mounting seats 4, the eave poles 3 can extend and retract along the eave sleeves 41, eave sliding cavities are formed in the eave sleeves 41, and the eave poles 3 pass through the eave sliding cavities, facilitating back-and-forth extension and retraction; the eave sleeves 41 are in hinged fit with the mounting seats 4, so that the eave sleeves 41 can be timely adjusted in position as the eave poles 3 continuously extend or retract, which is conducive to sliding of the eave poles 3; meanwhile, by means of the cooperation between the eave sliding cavities in the eave sleeves 41 and the eave poles 3, the eave sliding cavities are usually similar in shape to the eave poles 3 and form a sliding clearance fit, which can minimize lateral offset of the eave poles 3, thereby improving the overall stability of the eave poles 3, and ensuring that the eave poles 3 do not shake when the folding tent is opened.

[0063] In one of preferred embodiments, the eave poles 3 are of an integral structure, or the eave poles 3 are of a straight pole structure. For the integral structure, the eave poles 3 are straight poles. In this structural design, the eave poles 3 are usually hinged to the middles of the linkage rods 8, thus achieving good cooperation.

[0064] In one of preferred embodiments, the eave poles 3 are of an integral or split structure, the eave poles 3 are provided with arc-shaped inflection points or bent inflection points, and after the eave poles 3 complete the extension of the eaves, the arc-shaped inflection points or the bent inflection points are close to or located at inner end ports of the eave sleeves 41. When the eave pole 3 is of an integral structure, it is usually an arc-shaped tube or a partially arc-shaped tube. When the eave pole 3 is of a split structure, two ends thereof are connected by using a connecting component, where the connecting component is located at the arc-shaped inflection point or the bent inflection point.

[0065] In one of preferred embodiments, sliding devices 5 are further disposed between the linkage rods 8 and the diagonal poles 6. The sliding devices 5 can make the movement of the linkage rods 8 more stable and smooth, and the sliding devices 5 play a guiding role. The eave pole 3 and the diagonal pole 6 are located on two sides of the linkage rod 8 respectively, thus avoiding interference, and increasing the mounting stability.

[0066] In one of preferred embodiments, the sliding devices 5 include sliding sleeves 51 and connecting rod seats 52, where the sliding sleeves 51 are sleeved on the diagonal poles 6 and are slidable along the diagonal poles 6, and the connecting rod seats 52 are configured to be in hinged fit with the linkage rods 8. The sliding sleeves 51 are slidable along the diagonal poles 6, so that the linkage rods 8 can be restricted while the guiding effect is achieved, increasing the stability of movement of the linkage rods 8.

[0067] In one of preferred embodiments, the sliding devices 5 can also include sliding rod portions and connecting rod hinge portions, where sliding grooves are formed in the diagonal poles, the sliding rod portions are configured to be in sliding fit with the sliding grooves, and the connecting rod hinge portions are configured to be in hinged fit with the linkage rods. The sliding rod portions can be designed in combination with a pulley or a T-shaped rod to facilitate the cooperation with the sliding grooves. The sliding grooves are usually of a long hole structure, which is intended to achieve the effects of guiding and stabilizing the linkage rods.

[0068] In one of preferred embodiments, the sliding devices 5 can also be sliding trolleys with the diagonal poles 6 as tracks. The structure of the sliding trolleys is usually a base combined with a single pulley or two pulleys, which is a commonly used technology in the sliding rail field of the prior art. The structure of the sliding trolleys can also be adjusted according to requirements and will not be repeated herein.

[0069] Referring to the figures, in one of preferred embodiments, the outer end parts of the linkage rods 8 are hinged to the eave poles 3, and the sliding devices 5 are hinged to the outer end parts of the linkage rods 8. Preferably, the hinge position of each of the linkage rods 8 and each of the eave poles 3, and the hinge position of each of the sliding devices 5 and each of the linkage rods 8 are located on two sides of each of the linkage rods 8 respectively. Usually, the hinge positions of the sliding devices 5 and the linkage rods 8 are close to the diagonal poles 6. This design integrates multiple hinge points into one, thus making the structure more concise, and enhancing the aesthetic appearance.

[0070] Referring to the figures, in one of preferred embodiments, the outer end parts of the linkage rods 8 are hinged to the eave poles 3, and the sliding devices 5 are hinged to the middles of the linkage rods 8. The hinge positions of the sliding devices 5 and the linkage rods 8 are usually close to the end parts of the linkage rods 8, presenting a split design. This can improve the smoothness of transmission of the linkage rods 8, and can also increase the fault tolerance rate of movement of the linkage rods 8, thereby enhancing the stability and smoothness of transmission of the linkage rods 8.

[0071] Referring to the figures, in one of preferred embodiments, the middles of the linkage rods 8 are hinged to the eave poles 3, and the sliding devices 5 are hinged to the outer end parts of the linkage rods 8. Preferably, when the eave poles 3 are in a straight pole state, this structural design is usually adopted to meet the design requirements for eave poles 3 of different specifications.

[0072] In one of preferred embodiments, the linkage rods 8 are in a long thin plate-like structure. With this structural feature, interference between the linkage rods 8 and the components such as the diagonal poles 3 and the tent support poles 201 can be avoided, the volume can be reduced, and the overall packaging size of the folding tent can be decreased.

[0073] According to the present disclosure, through optimized design, the linkage rods are used as linkage components, and the extension of the tent support poles drives the extension of the linkage rods, thereby driving the eave poles to complete extension. Compared with the prior art in which the sliding seats are used to drive the diagonal poles to slide and thus connecting seats are used to drive the eave poles, the present disclosure has the advantages that power transmission is more direct and effective, making the extension or retraction of the eave poles smoother; by utilizing restrictions of the linkage rods on the eave poles and in combination with the eave sleeves, the eave poles can be mounted more stably; and by selecting the hinge positions of the eave poles and the linkage rods, the length dimension of the eave poles can be adjusted, making them more applicable.

Therefore, the above disclosed embodiments are merely illustrative and not exclusive in all respects. All changes within the scope of the present disclosure or within the scope equivalent to that of the present disclosure are encompassed by the present disclosure.

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present disclosure relates to the technical field of outdoor tents, in particular to an outdoor folding tent with a tent pole stabilizing structure.BACKGROUND

[0002] Outdoor tents come in a variety of structural forms, including folding tents that can be folded for storage, and fixed tents that are placed directly in outdoor courtyards or parks. The folding tent is a kind of tent that can be quickly mounted, is lightweight, durable and convenient to carry, and can be freely folded and unfolded, making it suitable for a variety of different environments and terrains. It is simple and stable. Moreover, it is convenient to disassemble, assemble and carry, and thus can be quickly folded when it needs to be moved.

[0003] The frame of a folding tent usually includes tent leg assemblies and a tent canopy frame for supporting and mounting tent fabric. Since the folding tent needs to be folded for storage, tent top poles and tent support poles in the tent canopy frame are usually of a folding structure. In existing folding tents, the end parts of the tent top poles are usually correspondingly in hinged fit with those of the tent support poles, resulting in moderate stability at the hinge positions of the end parts after the tent top poles and the tent support poles are unfolded. Consequently, the unfolding effect of the tent fabric is mediocre, and there exist defects in use.

[0004] In addition, for some existing folding tents, in order to increase the sun-shading area after the tent is unfolded, an eave-style tent with an eave structure has emerged. Extended eave poles are disposed at the top corner of the tent, and thus the sun-shading area can be increased through surrounding edges disposed on the eave poles.

[0005] For existing eave structures, eave poles are usually pivotally connected or inserted into top poles of tent roof brackets, so as to form an outward eave structure. For example, disclosed in Patent Application No. CN209443880U is an eave bracket structure of a tent, fixed on leg tubes of the tent, and including two eave poles and one fixing pole, where the two ends of the fixing pole are connected to the two eave poles respectively, and the two eave poles are connected to the two leg tubes of the tent through connecting pieces respectively; and the connecting piece includes a first clamping arm, a second clamping arm, a rotating head, and a fixing bolt. However, two steps are required for unfolding or folding during use. That is, during unfolding, the main bracket of the tent needs to be unfolded first, and then the eave poles need to be snapped apart and pulled out one by one, or the eave frame needs to be assembled separately. Since the eave poles are at a relatively high position, the operation is inconvenient. The folding process is the reverse and has the same problem.

[0006] In view of this, disclosed in Patent Application No. CN204238639U is an eave frame mechanism of a folding tent, including a tent frame and eave poles, where the tent frame includes vertical poles, tent poles, and support poles, fixing seats are fixedly disposed at the top ends of the vertical poles, sliding seats capable of sliding up and down along the vertical poles are slidably connected to the vertical poles, the ends of the tent poles are pivotally connected to the fixing seats, the support poles have first ends pivotally connected to the sliding seats and second ends pivotally connected to the tent poles, and the sliding seats can slide up and down along the vertical poles to drive the tent frame to be unfolded or folded; the fixing seats are provided with sliding tracks; and connecting seats are slidably connected to the support poles, the first ends of the eave poles are pivotally connected to the connecting seats, and the second ends of the eave poles can be movably connected to the sliding tracks in an extending or retracting manner so as to drive the eave poles to be unfolded or folded. Although automatic extension and retraction of eaves can be achieved, the eave poles need to be limited in extension and retraction through the sliding tracks (of a long hole structure). However, the sliding tracks and the eave poles are usually in clearance fit. As a result, when the folding tent is in a fully unfolded state, the eave poles are prone to obvious shaking, especially in windy conditions. In combination with the tent fabric, it is very likely to cause the folding tent to shake, which seriously affects the usage experience. In addition, the connecting seats slide along the support poles. When in the fully unfolded state, the connecting seats are prone to backsliding due to external forces, which affects the unfolding effect of the eave poles.

[0007] In addition, disclosed in Patent Application No. CN112031514A is a folding tent with an automatic telescopic eave structure, including tent leg tubes, tent top poles, and support poles, where mounting seats are cooperatively disposed at the upper ends of the tent leg tubes, one end of each of the tent top poles is hinged to each of the mounting seats, leg tube sliding seats are movable along the tent leg tubes and are cooperatively disposed on the tent leg tubes and configured to cooperate with the support poles, the front ends of the support poles are hinged to the tent top poles to support or retract the tent top poles, eave sliding sleeves are movable relative to the mounting seats and are disposed on the mounting seats and configured to cooperate with eave poles, the eave poles can slide along the eave sliding sleeves to extend outward or retract inward, the eave poles include first eave poles and second eave poles deflected relative to the first eave poles, and one end of each of the second eave poles is configured to be in movable fit with each of the support poles.

[0008] However, the above technical solution includes the solution previously applied for by the applicant. During use, when the connecting seats slide along the support poles, since the eave poles need to be driven to extend outward, the eave poles are prone to getting stuck during extension, resulting in unreliable extension and retraction.SUMMARY

[0009] In view of the above problems, the present disclosure aims to provide an outdoor folding tent with a tent pole stabilizing structure. stabilizing seats and hinge seats are optimized in structure, so that tent top poles and tent support poles have good stability after being unfolded, thus improving the unfolding effect of the tent.

[0020] The eave poles are of an integral or split structure and are provided with arc-shaped inflection points or bent inflection points, and after the eave poles complete the extension of the eaves, the arc-shaped inflection points or the bent inflection points are close to or located at inner end ports of the eave sleeves.

[0055] Based on Embodiment 1, as shown in FIG. 5 to FIG. 15, an outdoor folding tent with a tent pole stabilizing structure provided in the present disclosure further includes an eave structure, which includes tent leg tubes 1 and tent support poles 201. In the prior art, a common folding tent includes four tent leg tubes 1 and four tent support poles 201 extending from upper ends of the tent leg tubes 1 towards a center. Usually, folding side pole assemblies are further cooperatively disposed between the tent leg tubes 1. The tent support poles 201 are usually formed by hinging two or more folding poles. The structure of the folding tent is a common structure in the prior art, which can be classified into a folding tent with a center lock, a business tent with long top poles at upper and middle parts, an ordinary folding tent unlocked by sliding seats on leg tubes, etc. Moreover, the folding tent may have two or more tent roofs.

[0056] Mounting seats 4 are disposed at upper parts of the tent leg tubes 1, one end of each of the tent support poles 201 is cooperatively mounted with each of the mounting seats 4, sliding seats 7 capable of sliding up and down along the tent leg tubes 1 are further disposed on the tent leg tubes 1, diagonal poles 6 are disposed on the sliding seats 7 in a hinged fit manner, and the other end of each of the diagonal poles 6 is in hinged fit with each of the tent support poles 201. Usually, the diagonal poles 6 are in hinged fit with the outermost folding poles of the tent support poles 201, where the tent support poles 201 are configured to support tent fabric at a top of the tent.

[0057] Based on the above, linkage rods 8 are optimally designed in the present disclosure, where inner ends of the linkage rods 8 are end parts biased towards the center of the folding tent, and outer ends thereof are end parts biased towards an exterior of the folding tent. In combination with the above structure of the folding tent, it is provided with an automatic eave structure, allowing the folding tent to have an eave mechanism, thereby increasing the sun-shading area, and improving the overall usage experience.

[0058] One end of each of the linkage rods 8 is configured to be in hinged fit with each of the tent support poles 201, hinge positions on the tent support poles 201 are located on the outermost folding poles, and hinge points of the linkage rods 8 and the tent support poles 201 are located inside hinge points of the diagonal poles 6 and the tent support poles 201, where the center of the folding tent is an interior. To achieve the hinged connection between the inner end parts of the linkage rods 8 and the tent support poles 201, the hinge points are closer to the central region of the folding tent than the hinge points of the diagonal poles 6 and the tent support poles 201. This design feature is to avoid interference to the diagonal poles 6 by the linkage rods 8 during the process of being driven by the tent support poles 201, and meanwhile it is more conducive to pulling eave poles 3.

[0059] A position close to or located at the outer end part of each of the linkage rods 8 is hinged to one end of each of the eave poles 3. The hinge positions of the linkage rods 8 and the eave poles 3 can be adjusted according to the eave length of the eave poles 3. In addition, different hinge positions of the eave poles and the linkage rods 8 can also be selected according to the shape of the eave poles 3. The linkage rods 8 and the eave poles 3 can be directly mounted through hinge shafts or cooperatively mounted by using hinge seats during hinged connection. Gaskets can be disposed on hinge components of the linkage rods 8 and the eave poles 3 to form spacing isolation, which can avoid bumping interference during folding or unfolding. Referring to the figures, each of the eave poles 3 may be a straight pole.

[0060] In this embodiment, when the folding tent is unfolded, the tent support poles 201 drives the linkage rods 8 to extend upward, and the linkage rods 8 pull the eave poles 3 to complete extension of eaves. Specifically, when the folding tent is in a retracted state, the hinge positions between the mounting seats 4 and the corresponding folding poles of the tent support poles 201 usually configured to be hinged to the diagonal poles 6 and the linkage rods 8 are usually located at the upper end and are in a vertical direction, usually not completely vertical, and the other end of each of the folding poles is located at the lower end. Meanwhile, a center lock or a top plate is usually in the center of the folding tent, where the top plate is configured to be in hinged fit with the end parts of the innermost tent support poles 201. When the folding tent is opened, the center of the folding tent moves upward from the lowest position, and the folding poles of the tent support poles 201 extend from the folded state to the unfolded state. The corresponding outermost folding poles of the folding support poles 201 move, so that the folding poles change from the original vertical state to a horizontal state. As the lower ends of the tent support poles 201 hinged to the diagonal poles 6 and the linkage rods 8 continuously move upward, the diagonal poles 6 and the linkage rods 8 are driven to move, so that the diagonal poles 6 and the linkage rods 8 also change from the vertical state to a horizontal state. The diagonal poles 6 drive the sliding seats 7 to move upward along the tent leg tubes 1 to complete unfolding of the entire folding tent. During this period, the linkage rods 8 are driven by the tent support poles 201, so that the other end of each of the linkage rods 8 continuously moves upward. The linkage rods 8 and the eave poles 3 are in a V-shaped folding state with a small opening and closing angle. With the pulling of the linkage rods 8, an angle between the linkage rods 8 and the eave poles 3 continuously increases, usually changing from an acute angle to an obtuse angle, usually with a maximum opening and closing angle of less than 180°, so that the lower ends of the eave poles 3 continuously move upward, and the upper ends of the eave poles 3 continuously extend outward until the folding tent is completely unfolded.

[0061] In this embodiment, when the folding tent retracts, the tent support poles 201 retracts and thus drives the linkage rods 8 to retract, making the eave poles 3 complete retraction. Specifically, when the folding tent is in an unfolded state, the center of the folding tent moves downward from the highest position, and the folding poles of the tent support poles 201 retract from the unfolded state to the folded state. The outermost folding poles move correspondingly, so that the folding poles change from the original nearly horizontal state to a vertical state. The tent support poles 201 hinged to the diagonal poles 6 and the linkage rods 8 continuously move downward and thus drive the diagonal poles 6 and the linkage rods 8 to move, so that the diagonal poles 6 and the linkage rods 8 also change from the original nearly horizontal state to a vertical state. The diagonal poles 6 drive the sliding seats 7 to move downward along the tent leg tubes 1 to complete retraction of the entire folding tent. During this period, the linkage rods 8 are driven by the folding support poles 201, so that the other end of each of the linkage rods 8 continuously moves downward. The linkage rods 8 and the eave poles 3 are in a V-shaped folding state with a large opening and closing angle. With the pulling of the linkage rods 8, an angle between the linkage rods 8 and the eave poles 3 continuously decreases, usually changing from an obtuse angle to an acute angle, usually with a minimum opening and closing angle of greater than 0°, so that the outer ends of the eave poles 3 continuously retract inward until the folding tent is completely folded.

[0062] In one of preferred embodiments, middles of the eave poles 3 are cooperatively sleeved with eave sleeves 41, the eave sleeves 41 are hinged to the mounting seats 4 at the upper parts of the tent leg tubes 1, the eave sleeves 41 allow the eave poles 3 to slide freely in inner holes thereof, and the eave sleeves 41 can freely swing around the hinge points. Specifically, the eave sleeves 41 are hingedly mounted on the mounting seats 4, the eave poles 3 can extend and retract along the eave sleeves 41, eave sliding cavities are formed in the eave sleeves 41, and the eave poles 3 pass through the eave sliding cavities, facilitating back-and-forth extension and retraction; the eave sleeves 41 are in hinged fit with the mounting seats 4, so that the eave sleeves 41 can be timely adjusted in position as the eave poles 3 continuously extend or retract, which is conducive to sliding of the eave poles 3; meanwhile, by means of the cooperation between the eave sliding cavities in the eave sleeves 41 and the eave poles 3, the eave sliding cavities are usually similar in shape to the eave poles 3 and form a sliding clearance fit, which can minimize lateral offset of the eave poles 3, thereby improving the overall stability of the eave poles 3, and ensuring that the eave poles 3 do not shake when the folding tent is opened.

[0063] In one of preferred embodiments, the eave poles 3 are of an integral structure, or the eave poles 3 are of a straight pole structure. For the integral structure, the eave poles 3 are straight poles. In this structural design, the eave poles 3 are usually hinged to the middles of the linkage rods 8, thus achieving good cooperation.

[0064] In one of preferred embodiments, the eave poles 3 are of an integral or split structure, the eave poles 3 are provided with arc-shaped inflection points or bent inflection points, and after the eave poles 3 complete the extension of the eaves, the arc-shaped inflection points or the bent inflection points are close to or located at inner end ports of the eave sleeves 41. When the eave pole 3 is of an integral structure, it is usually an arc-shaped tube or a partially arc-shaped tube. When the eave pole 3 is of a split structure, two ends thereof are connected by using a connecting component, where the connecting component is located at the arc-shaped inflection point or the bent inflection point.

[0065] In one of preferred embodiments, sliding devices 5 are further disposed between the linkage rods 8 and the diagonal poles 6. The sliding devices 5 can make the movement of the linkage rods 8 more stable and smooth, and the sliding devices 5 play a guiding role. The eave pole 3 and the diagonal pole 6 are located on two sides of the linkage rod 8 respectively, thus avoiding interference, and increasing the mounting stability.

[0066] In one of preferred embodiments, the sliding devices 5 include sliding sleeves 51 and connecting rod seats 52, where the sliding sleeves 51 are sleeved on the diagonal poles 6 and are slidable along the diagonal poles 6, and the connecting rod seats 52 are configured to be in hinged fit with the linkage rods 8. The sliding sleeves 51 are slidable along the diagonal poles 6, so that the linkage rods 8 can be restricted while the guiding effect is achieved, increasing the stability of movement of the linkage rods 8.

[0067] In one of preferred embodiments, the sliding devices 5 can also include sliding rod portions and connecting rod hinge portions, where sliding grooves are formed in the diagonal poles, the sliding rod portions are configured to be in sliding fit with the sliding grooves, and the connecting rod hinge portions are configured to be in hinged fit with the linkage rods. The sliding rod portions can be designed in combination with a pulley or a T-shaped rod to facilitate the cooperation with the sliding grooves. The sliding grooves are usually of a long hole structure, which is intended to achieve the effects of guiding and stabilizing the linkage rods.

[0068] In one of preferred embodiments, the sliding devices 5 can also be sliding trolleys with the diagonal poles 6 as tracks. The structure of the sliding trolleys is usually a base combined with a single pulley or two pulleys, which is a commonly used technology in the sliding rail field of the prior art. The structure of the sliding trolleys can also be adjusted according to requirements and will not be repeated herein.

[0069] Referring to the figures, in one of preferred embodiments, the outer end parts of the linkage rods 8 are hinged to the eave poles 3, and the sliding devices 5 are hinged to the outer end parts of the linkage rods 8. Preferably, the hinge position of each of the linkage rods 8 and each of the eave poles 3, and the hinge position of each of the sliding devices 5 and each of the linkage rods 8 are located on two sides of each of the linkage rods 8 respectively. Usually, the hinge positions of the sliding devices 5 and the linkage rods 8 are close to the diagonal poles 6. This design integrates multiple hinge points into one, thus making the structure more concise, and enhancing the aesthetic appearance.

[0070] Referring to the figures, in one of preferred embodiments, the outer end parts of the linkage rods 8 are hinged to the eave poles 3, and the sliding devices 5 are hinged to the middles of the linkage rods 8. The hinge positions of the sliding devices 5 and the linkage rods 8 are usually close to the end parts of the linkage rods 8, presenting a split design. This can improve the smoothness of transmission of the linkage rods 8, and can also increase the fault tolerance rate of movement of the linkage rods 8, thereby enhancing the stability and smoothness of transmission of the linkage rods 8.

[0071] Referring to the figures, in one of preferred embodiments, the middles of the linkage rods 8 are hinged to the eave poles 3, and the sliding devices 5 are hinged to the outer end parts of the linkage rods 8. Preferably, when the eave poles 3 are in a straight pole state, this structural design is usually adopted to meet the design requirements for eave poles 3 of different specifications.

[0072] In one of preferred embodiments, the linkage rods 8 are in a long thin plate-like structure. With this structural feature, interference between the linkage rods 8 and the components such as the diagonal poles 3 and the tent support poles 201 can be avoided, the volume can be reduced, and the overall packaging size of the folding tent can be decreased.

[0073] According to the present disclosure, through optimized design, the linkage rods are used as linkage components, and the extension of the tent support poles drives the extension of the linkage rods, thereby driving the eave poles to complete extension. Compared with the prior art in which the sliding seats are used to drive the diagonal poles to slide and thus connecting seats are used to drive the eave poles, the present disclosure has the advantages that power transmission is more direct and effective, making the extension or retraction of the eave poles smoother; by utilizing restrictions of the linkage rods on the eave poles and in combination with the eave sleeves, the eave poles can be mounted more stably; and by selecting the hinge positions of the eave poles and the linkage rods, the length dimension of the eave poles can be adjusted, making them more applicable.

[0074] It can be seen from the technical general knowledge that the present disclosure can be realized through other embodiments without departing from the spirit or essential features thereof. Therefore, the above disclosed embodiments are merely illustrative and not exclusive in all respects. All changes within the scope of the present disclosure or within the scope equivalent to that of the present disclosure are encompassed by the present disclosure.
