[0034] A tent is provided according to the embodiments of the present application, so as to solve the problems of time-consuming and labor-intensive on-site assembly of each supporting rod during the construction of the existing tent.

[0037] In a specific embodiment, the tent provided according the present application includes:

at least two groups of crossed supporting components 1 and tarpaulins 2 respectively corresponding to each set of the crossed supporting components 1;

where each of the crossed supporting components 1 includes at least two cross-arranged supporting rods 12 having the same central intersection point, the central intersection point is provided with the central connecting piece 11 for dividing each of the supporting rods 12 into two supporting sub-rods 13, one end of each of the supporting sub-rods 13 is hinged with the central connecting piece 11, and the other end of each of the supporting sub-rods 13 is connected with the tarpaulin 2, and the central connecting piece 11 can drive the supporting sub-rod 13 to move toward the tarpaulin 2, so as to support the tarpaulin 2 at the dead point position formed by the supporting sub-rod 13 and the tarpaulin 2.

[0038] It is understandable that at least two groups/two here and below include two groups/two and more than two groups/two, the tarpaulin 2 is preferably arranged at the end points of the supporting rods 12 of the crossed supporting component 1 to maximize the inner cavity volume of the tent, and in order to facilitate support, the tarpaulin 2 is arranged on the outside of the tent, and the crossed supporting component 1 is arranged on the inside of the tent, so as to prevent rain water and the like from rusting the crossed supporting component 1 due to contact, and prolong the service life of the crossed supporting component 1. The tarpaulin 2 is flatly arranged along the surface formed by the cross supporting rods 12. The tarpaulins 2 respectively corresponding to the crossed supporting components 1 are connected to each other to form a closed cavity. Preferably, the tarpaulin 2 further includes a bottom part arranged at the bottom of the tent, and the tarpaulin 2 is preferably arranged in one piece.

[0039] Each crossed supporting component 1 includes at least two supporting rods 12, as -0 shown in FIG. 3. Each crossed supporting component 1 is provided with two supporting rods 12 by way of example, the two supporting rods 12 preferably have the same length and intersect with each other at the center point. In a case that the number of supporting rods 12 is plural, the multiple supporting rods 12 are divided into two equal-length supporting sub-rods 13 by the central intersection point, and the multiple supporting rods 12 have different lengths. Three supporting rods 12 are provided by way of example, two intersecting supporting rods 12 form two diagonal lines of a rectangle, and the third supporting rod 12 may be arranged along the width direction of the rectangle to form the double-cross shaped crossed supporting component 1. The crossed supporting components 1 in the tent preferably have the same number of supporting rods 12, so as to facilitate mass production. In other embodiments, the crossed supporting components 1 in the tent may have different numbers of supporting rods 12 according to needs, so as to improve the firmness of the tent. For example, in one embodiment, when the tent consists of three crossed supporting components 1, two of the three crossed supporting components 1 have three supporting rods 12, which are vertically arranged to form the side wall of the tent. The last crossed supporting component 1 is arranged at the top to form a ceiling, and this last crossed supporting component 1 may have two supporting rods 12. This scheme still falls within the protection scope of the present application.

[0040] One end of each supporting sub-rod 13 is respectively hinged to the central connecting piece 11, and the other end of each supporting sub-rod 13 is connected to the tarpaulin 2 respectively. The tarpaulin 2 may be provided with a corresponding mounting sleeve to realize sleeve connection with the supporting sub-rod 13, and the supporting sub-rod 13 is slidable in the mounting sleeve. The hinge connection between the supporting sub-rod 13 and the central connecting piece 11 may be configured according to actual needs, as long as the supporting sub-rod 13 and the tarpaulin 2 together form a dead point structure. For example, in a case that the crossed supporting component 1 includes two supporting rods 12, the length of the two supporting rods 12 is slightly larger than the diagonal length of the corresponding tarpaulin 2. While the central connecting piece 11 drives the supporting sub-rod 13 to move towards the tarpaulin 2, it can be seen that the moving direction is perpendicular to the plane formed by the crossed supporting component 1, and the end points of the crossed supporting component 1 are fixed on the tarpaulin 2. While the central connecting piece 11 moves, each supporting sub-rod 13 is bent and deformed beyond the dead point position, and each supporting sub-rod 13 supports the tarpaulin 2 and is fixed by the tarpaulin 2 to realize the propping-up of the tent; while the central connecting piece 11 drives the supporting sub-rod 13 to move away from the tarpaulin 2, the supporting sub-rod 13 is folded up after passing the dead point position, driven by the central connecting piece 11, and the folding of the tent is realized.

[0041] In the tent provided by the present application, the tarpaulin 2 is correspondingly provided on one side of the crossed supporting components 1, the central connecting piece 11 is provided at the central intersection point of the crossed supporting component 1, the central connecting piece 11 divides each supporting rod 12 into two supporting sub-rods 13, and one end of the supporting sub-rod 13 is hinged with the central connecting piece 11, and the other end is fixedly connected with the tarpaulin 2. While the central connecting piece 11 drives the supporting sub-rod 13 to move toward the tarpaulin 2, the supporting sub-rod 13 and the tarpaulin 2 form a dead point position to fix and support the tarpaulin 2. When in use, the device can support the tarpaulin 2 only by pushing the central connecting piece 11 to the dead point position formed by the supporting sub-rod 13 and the tarpaulin 2. The device accelerates the speed of supporting and retracting, avoids insertion of the frame rods, and improves the speed of erecting the tent.

[0042] As shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 5, specifically, the central connecting piece 11 includes a connecting seat 110 and a mounting groove 112 provided on the connecting seat 110 to mount the supporting sub-rods 13, a rotating shaft is provided at one end of the supporting sub-rod 13 which cooperates with the mounting groove 112, the rotating shaft is arranged perpendicular to a length direction of the supporting sub-rod 13, and two opposite side walls of the mounting groove 112 are provided with mounting holes for cooperating with the rotating shaft.

[0043] The supporting sub-rods 13 are evenly provided along the circumference of the connecting seat 110, and the connecting seat 110 is arranged on the inner side of the plane formed by the supporting sub-rods 13. In a case of pushing the central connecting piece 11, the supporting sub-rods 13 move outward, the connecting seat 110 limits the moving position of each supporting sub-rod 13 while mounting the supporting sub-rod 13, so as to prevent the supporting sub-rod 13 from moving further outward after passing through the dead point and failing to effectively support the tarpaulin 2. The above device fixes the moving position of the supporting sub-rod 13 through the connecting seat 110 and the tarpaulin 2 respectively, so -0 as to realize the stable support of the tarpaulin 2.

[0044] The mounting groove 112 is arranged on the connecting seat 110 in the radial direction with the central intersection as the center. The supporting sub-rod 13 is provided with the rotating shaft, which is perpendicular to the length direction of the supporting sub-rod 13 and protrudes from two ends of the supporting sub-rod 13, and the mounting groove 112 is provided with mounting holes for cooperating with the rotating shaft. The rotating shaft may be integrated with the supporting sub-rod 13; or, a through hole is provided on the supporting sub-rod 13, and the rotating shaft is arranged in the through hole to cooperate with the supporting sub-rod 13.

[0045] Further, the connecting seat 110 is provided with a pull ring 111 for pulling the central connecting piece 11, and the pull ring 111 is detachably and fixedly connected with the connecting seat 110. The pull ring 111 is preferably arranged on a side where the supporting sub-rod 13 is mounted on the connecting seat 110. In practical applications, a through hole for the pull ring 111 to pass through may be provided on the tarpaulin 2. The pull ring 111 protrudes from the tarpaulin 2 and is arranged on the outside, and each crossed supporting component 1 may be tensed by pulling the pull ring 111 during installation. The pull ring 111 may be fixed to the connecting seat 110 by a screw or the like.

[0046] In an embodiment, each of the crossed supporting components 1 includes two cross-arranged supporting rods 12 having the same central intersection point. The two supporting rods 12 in a same group of crossed supporting components 1 have the same length, and each group of crossed supporting components 1 is arranged identically, that is, the supporting rods 12 included in each group of crossed supporting components 1 have the same length. This arrangement may reduce the weight of the tent, reduce the components of the tent, and reduce the production cost. In other embodiments, the number and length of the supporting rods 12 included in each crossed supporting component 1 may be set according to needs, all of which fall within the protection scope of the present application.

[0047] In an embodiment, there are two groups of crossed supporting components 1, four ends of the four supporting rods 12 of the two groups of crossed supporting components 1 are in contact with the ground, and the other four ends of the four supporting rods 12 are arranged in pairs. The two groups of crossed supporting components 1 may be arranged in parallel and the two groups of crossed supporting components 1 are correspondingly connected by the -0 tarpaulin 2 to form a rectangular cavity. One side of the rectangular cavity is opened to form a door, which is convenient for personnel to enter and exit, and the other sides are connected by the tarpaulin 2 to form a cover. In other embodiments, the upper sides of the four supporting rods 12 of the two groups of crossed supporting components 1 are connected correspondingly to form a triangular prism-shaped cavity, the tent structure of this kind has high stability, is not easy to be skewed, and has a simple structure and can be quickly retracted and erected.

[0048] Further, four ends of the four supporting rods 12 far from the ground are hinged in pairs. The upper supporting rods 12 of the two groups of crossed supporting components 1 are correspondingly hinged to realize linkage between the upper supporting rods 12. It is preferable that the two supporting rods 12 are respectively provided with through holes, and a fixing ring is sleeved in the through holes to realize hinging. The fixing ring may be fixedly connected with the tarpaulin 2 to realize the fixation of the supporting rods 12 and the tarpaulin 2, and the above arrangement forms a triangular prism-shaped cavity. In other embodiments, the upper supporting rods 12 of the two groups of crossed supporting components 1 may also be fixed to the tarpaulin 2 respectively, which are all within the protection scope of the present application.

[0049] In an embodiment, there are four groups of crossed supporting components 1, one of the four groups of crossed supporting components 1 is arranged at the top of the tent, and the other three groups of crossed supporting components 1 are arranged around the circumference of the crossed supporting component 1arranged at the top of the tent to form a cavity with an opening at one side. The supporting rods 12 of the adjacent crossed supporting components 1 are arranged correspondingly. It is understandable that the other three groups of crossed supporting components 1 are arranged on the same side of the top crossed supporting component 1, and the bottoms of the other three groups of crossed supporting components 1 are connected by the tarpaulin 2. Preferably, each group of crossed supporting components 1 have two supporting rods 12, the end points of the four supporting rods 12 of the top crossed supporting component 1 correspond to the end points of the supporting rods 12 of the other three groups of crossed supporting components 1 respectively. The lengths of the supporting rods 12 of each group of crossed supporting components 1 are preferably equal; or, the lengths of the supporting rods 12 of the crossed supporting components 1 circumferentially arranged can be set to be greater than the lengths of the supporting rods 12 of the crossed supporting component 1at the top as required. In this way, the height of the tent can be set as required.

[0050] Alternatively, in an embodiment, the three groups of crossed supporting components 1 arranged around the top crossed supporting component 1 each include three supporting rods 12 to form a double-cross shaped structure, the supporting rods 12 are correspondingly arranged to effectively support the circumferentially arranged crossed supporting component 1.

[0051] Second Embodiment

[0052] FIG. 10 is a schematic view of the installation structure of the crossed supporting components 1 provided by a fifth embodiment of the present application. In an embodiment, the supporting rods 12, at the bottom of the three groups of crossed supporting components 1 arranged around the circumference of the crossed supporting component 1 at the top of the tent, are spaced at a predetermined interval. The three groups of crossed supporting components 1 are the first crossed supporting component 1, the second crossed supporting component 1 and the third crossed supporting component 1. The second crossed supporting component 1 is arranged opposite to the opening of the tent, and the first crossed supporting component 1 and the third crossed supporting component 1 are arranged on two sides of the second crossed supporting component 1. The supporting rods 12 arranged at the bottom of the first crossed supporting component 1 and the second crossed supporting component 1 are separated. Similarly, the supporting rods 12 provided at the bottom of the third crossed supporting component 1 and the second crossed supporting component 1 are also separated, that is, the planes on which the first crossed supporting component, the second crossed supporting component and the third crossed supporting component are located respectively have an angle with the vertical plane, so that one end of the three crossed supporting components are scattered outwards, and the supporting rods at the bottom of the three crossed supporting components do not intersect. In this way, the floor area at the bottom of the tent can be appropriately increased. In a case that the first crossed supporting component and the second crossed supporting component are respectively provided on two opposite sides of the top crossed supporting component, the angle between the first crossed supporting component and the top crossed supporting component is greater than 90 degrees, and the angle between the second crossed supporting component and the top crossed supporting component is greater than 90 degrees, thereby forming a trapezoidal tent, and improving the stability and floor area of the tent.

[0053] Alternatively, in an embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2, FIG. 2 is a schematic view of the installation structure of the crossed supporting components 1 in FIG. 1. The supporting rods 12 at the bottom of the three groups of crossed supporting components 1 arranged around the circumference of the crossed supporting component 1at the top of the tent are arranged in contact with each other, that is, the supporting rod 12 of the first crossed supporting component 1 is arranged in contact with the supporting rod 12 of the adjacent second crossed supporting component 1, the supporting rod 12 of the second crossed supporting component 1 is arranged in contact with the supporting rod 12 of the adjacent third crossed supporting component 1, the two supporting rods 12 may be hinged, or fixed by the tarpaulin 2 and intersect at the apex of the tent.

[0054] In an embodiment, the crossed supporting component arranged along the top of the tent is inclined from the outside to the inside at the open side of the tent, that is, the length of the supporting rod connected to the open side of the crossed supporting component at the top is greater than the length of the supporting rod connected to the inner side of the crossed supporting component at the top, thereby forming an inclined top surface and preventing rainwater from accumulating on the top of the tent.

[0055] Specifically, the other four ends of the four supporting rods 12 are arranged in pairs via a first strut 4. There are two groups of the crossed supporting components 1, namely, the first crossed supporting component and the second crossed supporting component. Four ends of the four supporting rods 12 of the first crossed supporting component and the second crossed supporting component are respectively in contact with the ground, and the other four ends of the four supporting rods 12 away from the ground are arranged in pairs. By way of example, the first crossed supporting component includes a first supporting rod and a second supporting rod, and the second crossed supporting component includes a third supporting rod and a fourth supporting rod. The bottom ends of the first supporting rod, the second supporting rod, the third supporting rod and the fourth supporting rod are in contact with the ground respectively, the top end of the first supporting rod corresponds to the top end of the third supporting rod, and the top end of the second supporting rod corresponds to the top end of the fourth supporting rod. The other four ends of the four supporting rods are respectively arranged in pairs via the first strut 4, that is, the top end of thefirst supporting rod and the top end of the third supporting rod are correspondingly arranged via the first strut 4, the top end of the second supporting rod and the top end of the fourth supporting rod are correspondingly arranged via another first strut 4, that is, oppositely arranged at two ends of the two first struts 4, respectively. The first crossed supporting component and the second crossed supporting component preferably have the same arrangement to facilitate production and processing. The first strut 4 may be fixed by the tarpaulin 2 or be hinged with the supporting rods 12 respectively. In a case that the first strut 4 is fixed to the supporting rods 12, the first strut 4 is preferably foldable at the center point, and two ends of the first strut 4 are hinged with the supporting rods 12 respectively. For example, the first strut 4 is preferably hinged at the center point, and the maximum rotation angle is between 180-220 degrees, so as to realize the support of the top of the tent. The above structure forms a tent with two side walls respectively supported by the first supporting component and the second supporting component and the top supported by two first struts 4.

[0056] Furthermore, the first struts 4 may also be respectively arranged at the bottom ends of the first supporting rod and the third supporting rod, and the bottom ends of the second supporting rod and the fourth supporting rod to improve the stability of the tent, all of which are within the protection scope of the present application.

[0057] Alternatively, in an embodiment, the first strut 4 may be embodied as an integrated straight rod. In this arrangement, the first strut 4 is arranged on the tarpaulin 2 and between the two supporting rods 12, and the first strut 4 is fixed by the tarpaulin 2. During installation, the two groups of crossed supporting components 1 are first propped up, and then the top of the tent is propped up by arranging first strut 4 between the tarpaulins 2.

[0058] FIG. 8 is a schematic view of the installation structure of the crossed supporting components provided by a third embodiment of the present application. In another embodiment, the first strut 4 is provided between the two corresponding supporting rods 12 at one end of the two groups of crossed supporting components 1 away from the ground, and the top ends of the other two corresponding supporting rods 12 intersect each other. By way of example, the first crossed supporting component includes a first supporting rod 121 and a second supporting rod 122, and the second crossed supporting component includes a third supporting rod 123 and a fourth supporting rod 124. The first strut 4 is arranged between the first supporting rod 121 and the third supporting rod 123, and the top end of the second supporting rod 122 intersects the top end of the fourth supporting rod 124, the two top ends can be hinged, and be fixed by the tension of the tarpaulin 2. It can be understood that the lengths of the first supporting rod 121 and the second supporting rod 122, and the lengths of the third supporting rod 123 and the fourth supporting rod 124 may be set to be different.

[0059] On the basis of the foregoing embodiments, in order to improve the stability of the surface where the crossed supporting component 1 is located, a second strut 3 is provided between two adjacent supporting sub-rods 13 of each crossed supporting component 1. One end of the second strut 3 is in contact with the ground, and the other end is intersected with the end of the first strut 4, and the side walls of the tent are reinforced by the cooperation of the second strut 3 and the crossed supporting component 1. Preferably, the second struts 3 are arranged at two ends of the first strut 4, so that the entrance end side of the tent is reinforced by two second struts 3 and onefirst strut 4, respectively. Apparently, in other embodiments, the second strut 3 may also be arranged between two adjacent supporting sub-rods 13 of each crossed supporting component 1 to form a stable structure and improve the stability and wind resistance of the tent.
