Detailed Implementation

[0037] The preferred embodiments of this disclosure will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, so that the advantages and features of this disclosure can be more easily understood by those skilled in the art. It should be noted that the description of these embodiments is for the purpose of aiding understanding of this disclosure, but does not constitute a limitation thereof. Furthermore, the technical features involved in the various embodiments of this disclosure described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0038] As shown in Figures 1-7, the foldable tent disclosed herein includes a tent frame, a load-bearing pole 2, a support device, and a sliding component 6.

[0039] The tent frame has multiple vertically extending support legs 11 and a retractable top frame 12. The upper ends of the multiple support legs 11 are connected to the retractable top frame 12. The retractable top frame 12 can extend or retract itself to move adjacent support legs 11 closer or further apart. The specific structure of the retractable top frame 12 is not limited here and can adopt applicable structures in the prior art. In some embodiments, four support legs 11 are provided. In other embodiments, the number of support legs 11 can be set to 3, 5, or other quantities, as shown in Figures 1-3 and 6. In some embodiments, a tent cloth 13 can be provided on the tent frame, and the tent cloth 13 is located above the retractable top frame 12.

[0040] The load-bearing pole 2 extends horizontally for attaching accessories. By horizontally positioning the load-bearing pole 2, its attachment area is expanded. Accessories can specifically include cup holders, various merchandise for sale, banners, nameplates, and other items. In some embodiments, the load-bearing pole 2 includes a first pole 21 and a second pole 22. The first pole 21 is slidably telescopically connected relative to the second pole 22, allowing the load-bearing pole 2 to be adjusted to different lengths as needed to accommodate foldable tents of different widths or the attachment needs of different users. In some embodiments, the first pole 21 is inserted into the second pole 22, as shown in Figure 8. In some embodiments, the load-bearing pole 2 also includes a third pole 23, which is inserted into and connected to the second pole 22 to increase the length of the load-bearing pole 2. A locking device is provided between the first pole 21 and the second pole 22. The locking device specifically includes a fixing base 31, a fixing sleeve 32, and a screw. 33, nut 34, and handle 35, wherein the fixing seat 31 is located at the end of the second rod 22, the fixing sleeve 32 is set with a single-sided opening and is sleeved on the fixing seat 31, the screw 33 passes through the opening of the fixing sleeve 32, the nut 34 is screwed on the end of the screw 33 to prevent the screw 33 from coming out of the opening of the fixing sleeve 32, and the handle 35 is rotatably connected to the fixing sleeve 32 to cooperate with the screw 33 to control the size of the opening of the fixing sleeve 32. When the handle 35 is open, the opening of the fixing sleeve 32 is larger, and the first rod 21 can slide relative to the second rod 22. When the handle 35 is closed, the opening of the fixing sleeve 32 is smaller, and the first rod 21 cannot slide relative to the second rod 22.

[0041] A receiving device is installed between two adjacent support legs 11 to receive the load-bearing pole 2. In some embodiments, the receiving device is a suspension member 4. The upper end of the suspension member 4 is connected to the tent frame. Specifically, the upper end of the suspension member 4 is connected to the telescopic top frame 12, and the load-bearing pole 2 passes through the suspension member 4. The suspension member 4 includes a flexible webbing 41 and mating parts 42 connected to the flexible webbing 41 at both ends. The load-bearing pole 2 passes through the mating parts 42. The flexible webbing 41 is connected to the telescopic top frame 12, as shown in Figure 5. The flexible webbing 41 can be provided with buckles 43, which can be conveniently connected and disconnected from the telescopic top frame 12 by opening and closing the buckles 43. Multiple suspension members 4 can be provided according to the length of the load-bearing pole 2 to better support the load-bearing pole 2. The length of the suspension member 4 can also be adjusted to adapt to load-bearing poles 2 with different height requirements.

[0042] In some embodiments, the receiving device is a support rod 5. The support rod 5 includes a support rod body and a U-shaped snap-fit ​​53 disposed at the upper end of the support rod body. The support rod body has a lower support rod 52 and an upper support rod 51. The upper support rod 51 is slidably telescopically arranged relative to the lower support rod 52, so that the load-bearing pole 2 can have different heights relative to the foldable tent by adjusting the length of the support rod 5. In some embodiments, the upper support rod 51 is inserted into the lower support rod 52. As shown in Figure 9, in some embodiments, a locking device identical to that of the load-bearing rod 2 is provided between the upper support rod 51 and the lower support rod 52. The locking device specifically includes a fixed seat 31, a fixed sleeve 32, a screw 33, a nut 34, and a handle 35. The fixed seat 31 is located at the end of the lower support rod 52. The fixed sleeve 32 is open on one side. The screw 33 passes through the opening of the fixed sleeve 32. The nut 34 is screwed onto the end of the screw 33 to prevent the screw 33 from coming out of the opening of the fixed sleeve 32. The handle 35 is rotatably connected to the fixed sleeve 32 and is used to cooperate with the screw 33 to control the size of the opening of the fixed sleeve 32. When the handle 35 is open, the opening of the fixed sleeve 32 is larger, and the upper support rod 51 can slide relative to the lower support rod 52. When the handle 35 is closed, the opening of the fixed sleeve 32 is smaller, and the upper support rod 51 cannot slide relative to the lower support rod 52.

[0043] At least one pair of adjacent foldable tent support legs 11 are provided with sliding parts 6, and the two ends of the load-bearing pole 2 are provided with locking parts 24 that engage with the sliding parts 6. By providing the sliding parts 6, the height of the load-bearing pole 2 relative to the foldable tent can be easily adjusted.

[0044] Thus, as shown in Figures 1-3, in some embodiments, the load-bearing rod 2 has a first usage state. When in the first usage state, the load-bearing rod 2 rests against two adjacent support legs 11, and both ends of the load-bearing rod 2 extend out of the two adjacent support legs 11. The load-bearing rod 2 passes through the suspension member 4, as shown in Figures 4-5. In some embodiments, the load-bearing rod 2 has a second usage state. When in the second usage state, both ends of the load-bearing rod 2 are engaged with the sliding member 6, and the load-bearing rod 6 passes through the suspension member 4, as shown in Figures 6-7. In some embodiments, the load-bearing rod 2 has a third usage state. When in the third usage state, both ends of the load-bearing rod are engaged with the sliding member 6, and the U-shaped locking member 53 of the support rod 5 is engaged with the load-bearing rod 2.
