Fig. 9 shows a side of a higher tent composed of four tent sheets and Fig. Io and ii in side view and top view a longer tent. ' According to Fig. 1, each tent sheet α has the shape of an isosceles triangle, at the base of which a rectangular part b of low height (hereinafter referred to as the "rollover") connects. The point is somewhat flattened, and just below it there is a ring c 'in the tent sheet (Figs. 5 and 6) and above it a cover strip e with a buttonhole d. Every man carries such a tent sheet, a tent stick of the usual type and a tent peg. This equipment of four men results in a tent with a square floor plan as shown in Fig. 3 and 4. The four tent poles are put together to form a tent pole and this is set up. The rings c of the four tent sheets are slipped over their tips, these are linked to one another on the long sides, the tent pegs are driven in and the cords g are attached to the same. In the lower corners of the triangle there are holes to accommodate short cords for attachment to the tent pegs. The tent is then ready, the tent pole is exactly in its center. The tip of the tent is completely waterproof, because the one above each ring c lying cover strip e is pressed against the tent pole by the ring of the next tent sheet placed over it pressing on it. Each tent sheet has a slit in the middle that runs in the direction of the height of the triangle, so that the head can be pushed through when it is used as a raincoat. target. For this purpose, the tent sheet is folded up by turning the tip of the triangle halfway up the tent sheet and then - then the two other corners towards the tip - and tying it with it. It. The result is then (see Fig. 7) a kimono-like cloak that completely protects the shoulders and upper arms, but leaves the hands free to use. The cloak is wide enough to be worn over the knapsack. In order to prevent water from penetrating through the slot of the tent sheet when used as a tent, both edges h of the slot cover each other as shown in Fig. 2 and are also provided with flaps so that they can be plugged into one another. In addition, siii | · The transverse seams h ¹ for fastening the flaps "are slanted on the tent sheet (see Fig. 1), so that water penetrating under the outer flap flows out again. To form a sleeping bag, two tent panels k and Ή, which are joined together to form raincoats, are buttoned together as shown in Fig. 8. -..:- 1 . ....----.

According to Fig. 10 and ti, tents of any length can be made, the depth of which is equal to that of a tent sheet. In this case, the rectangular flaps b at the base line serve to make the roof completely watertight, as they extend over the edge of the roof and can be buttoned to the opposite tent sheet.
