Description

A tent frame pole connection structure Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of tent technology, and more specifically to a tent frame pole connection structure. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional tent pole connection structures often use spring pins or threaded connections to lock the joints of two sets of poles together, which has the following technical drawbacks: 1. On-site assembly is required, and it is difficult to distinguish the corresponding connection positions of the poles, making assembly difficult, time-consuming and labor-intensive; 2. The locking mechanism is susceptible to external vibrations that may cause accidental unlocking, resulting in insufficient stability when the tent is unfolded; 3. When folding up, the poles are scattered, making them easy to lose and inconvenient to carry. Technical solutions

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a tent frame pole connection structure to solve the above-mentioned problems.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0005] A tent frame pole connection structure includes tent frame poles and a connecting joint. The connecting joint includes a rotating base, a rotating head, a locking element, and an unlocking element. The tent frame poles are divided into two sets and respectively mounted on the rotating base and the rotating head. The rotating head is rotatably connected to the rotating base and has a locking port. The rotating base has a movable locking element built into it. When the two sets of tent frame poles are in the unfolded state, the locking element engages with the locking port to restrict the rotation of the rotating head. The unlocking element is movably disposed on the rotating base and connected to the locking element to drive the locking element to disengage from the locking port.

[0006] Preferably, the locking element includes a locking post and a spring, the locking post being connected to the spring and pushed into the locking slot by the elastic tension of the spring.

[0007] Preferably, the lower side of the rotating mold base is provided with a hinge slot, and the opening of the hinge slot extends through the left and right sides of the rotating mold base. The left end of the locking member is hinged in the hinge slot. The rotating mold base has a movable cavity that accommodates the locking post and allows the locking post to slide left and right. The right end of the locking post is connected to the left side wall of the movable cavity through the spring. The left side wall of the movable cavity has a telescopic opening that communicates with the hinge slot, allowing the left end of the locking post to pass through and engage with the locking opening.

[0008] Preferably, the upper left end of the rotating head is provided with an L-shaped notch, and the L-shaped notch cooperates with the upper side wall of the hinge groove to form the locking opening.

[0009] Preferably, the unlocking component includes a sliding button and a connecting rod. The sliding button is slidably fitted onto the outer wall of the rotating mold base in a left-right direction. The upper and lower ends of the connecting rod are respectively connected to the sliding button and the locking post. The upper side of the rotating mold base has a sliding opening communicating with the movable cavity for the connecting rod to pass through and slide left and right.

[0010] Preferably, the rotating mold base is also provided with webbing hooks for binding tent webbing. Beneficial effects

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the present invention has the following advantages compared with the prior art:

[0012] This invention provides a tent frame pole connection structure. Two sets of tent frame poles are connected by a joint. In use, the rotating base and rotating head are rotated to a specified angle, and then the locking piece inside the rotating base is engaged with the locking slot on the rotating head to restrict the rotating head from continuing to rotate, keeping it in the unfolded state. When storing, the unlocking piece drives the locking piece to disengage from the locking slot, and the rotating head rotates in the opposite direction, so that the two sets of tent frame poles are folded vertically. It is convenient to use and can quickly form a tent structure without on-site splicing and assembly. When storing, the unlocking piece drives the locking piece to disengage from the locking slot, and the rotating head rotates in the opposite direction, so that the two sets of tent frame poles are folded vertically. There is no need to disassemble and reassemble the tent frame poles separately, making it easy to carry and less likely to be lost. Attached Figure Description

[0020] Example

[0021] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5. This invention discloses a tent frame pole connection structure, including tent frame poles 1 and connecting joints 2. The connecting joints 2 include a rotating base 21, a rotating head 22, a locking element 23, and an unlocking element 24. The tent frame poles 1 include two sets, which are respectively installed on the rotating base 21 and the rotating head 22. The rotating head 22 is rotatably connected to the rotating base 21 by a pin. The rotating head 22 is provided with a locking port 221. The rotating base 21 has a movable locking element 22 inside. When the two sets of tent frame poles 1 are in the unfolded state, the locking element 23 is engaged in the locking port 221 to restrict the rotation of the rotating head 22. The unlocking element 24 is movably disposed on the rotating base 21 and connected to the locking element 23 to drive the locking element 23 to disengage from the locking port 221.

[0022] The locking component 23 includes a locking pin 231 and a spring 232. The locking pin 231 is connected to the spring 232 and is pushed into the locking port 221 by the elastic tension of the spring 232, thereby restricting the rotation of the rotating head 22 and keeping the two sets of tent poles 1 in the unfolded state.

[0023] The lower side of the rotating mold base 21 is provided with a hinge slot 211, and the opening of the hinge slot 211 extends through the left and right sides of the rotating mold base 21. The left end of the locking member 23 is hinged in the hinge slot 211. The rotating mold base 21 has a movable cavity 212 that accommodates the locking pin 231 and allows the locking pin 231 to slide left and right. The right end of the locking pin 231 is connected to the left side cavity wall of the movable cavity 212 through a spring 232. The left side cavity wall of the movable cavity 212 has a telescopic opening that communicates with the hinge slot 211, allowing the left end of the locking pin 231 to pass through and be inserted into the locking opening 221.

[0024] The upper left end of the rotating head 22 is provided with an L-shaped notch 222. The L-shaped notch 222 cooperates with the upper side wall of the hinge slot 211 to form a locking port 221. The locking port 221 is a three-dimensional locking surface, which improves the torsional strength.

[0025] The unlocking component 24 includes a sliding button 241 and a connecting rod 242. The sliding button 241 is slidably fitted onto the outer wall of the rotating mold base 21 in the left-right direction. The upper and lower ends of the connecting rod 242 are connected to the sliding button 241 and the locking pin 231, respectively. The upper side of the rotating mold base 21 has a sliding opening 213 that communicates with the movable cavity 212 for the connecting rod 242 to pass through and slide left and right. The surface of the sliding button 241 is provided with anti-slip texture. When in use, sliding the sliding button 241 to the left causes the unlocking component 24 to drive the locking pin 231 to slide to the left against the elastic force, so that the right end of the locking pin 231 disengages from the locking opening 221. At this time, the rotating head 22 can be rotated to fold the two sets of tent frame poles 1 up and down.

[0026] The rotating mold base 21 is also equipped with webbing hooks 25 for binding tent webbing. The rotating mold base 21 and the rotating head 22 are each provided with a mounting hole for inserting and fixing the tent frame pole 1.
