Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a technique for improving the livability of a leisure tent, a tent for emergency evacuation and the like in a disaster or the like.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, for example, in a leisure tent or a tent for emergency evacuation during a disaster or the like, as shown in FIG. 7, a ground sheet 52 is generally laid on the ground below an awning material 51. As such an awning material 51, for example, a frame body serving as a skeleton is formed by a metal pipe material or a cylindrical air tube, and a tent sheet such as a waterproof canvas, a tarpaulin or a resin sheet is formed thereon. In general, the ground sheet 52 is covered with water, and the ground sheet 52 is generally a waterproof canvas, a tarpaulin, a resin sheet, or the like.

[0003]

However, the structure of the tent or the like as described above is poor in heat insulation because the main part of the awning material 51 and the ground sheet 52 are a single structure or a thin sheet. In the case of the ground sheet 52,
There is a problem that comfort is lacking due to lack of cushioning property, and rainwater or the like is apt to penetrate due to the small thickness. Also,
When the frame of the awning material 51 is made of an air tube, there is a problem that the rigidity of the whole becomes low and the space inside the tent or the like is narrowed by the air tube.

[0004] Therefore, the present invention is to improve the heat retention by increasing the airtightness of the tent and the interior of the windbreak room, and to improve the cushioning of the ground sheet and to make it difficult for rainwater or the like to enter. The purpose of the present invention is to increase the rigidity of a tent or the like and increase the internal space.

[0005]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides an air mat tent material which is installed so as to surround the upper surface of a fixed space and both right and left sides, and is laid at least on the ground in the enclosed space. In an air tent or tent windbreak room equipped with an air mat floor covering material, at least a part of the awning material and the floor covering material are constituted by a single flat air mat having a predetermined thickness or an air mat integrally formed as a whole. The upper and lower surfaces and the left and right sides are closed.

[0006] By forming at least a part of the tent material and the floor covering material into an air mat having a predetermined thickness in this manner, a membrane structure having a predetermined thickness is obtained, and the rigidity of the tent or the like is secured and the heat inside the tent or the like is maintained. Thus, the cushioning property is improved and the infiltration of rainwater or the like can be suppressed. Here, as a flat air mat having a predetermined thickness,
For example, by connecting the air-tight front and back base cloths with a number of connecting yarns of substantially constant length and air-tightening the periphery, such as a flat air inflatable body that is prevented from expanding beyond a certain thickness,
An air mat or the like in which cylindrical air tubes are arranged in parallel and flattened can be used. At this time, the thickness of the air mat is set to 5 to 10 c for cushioning property, heat insulation property, and prevention of rainwater intrusion.
m is preferable.

[0007] Further, the tent material and the floor covering material are constituted by a single air mat or an air mat integrated as a whole, so that the number of connecting parts is reduced, and the tent material and the floor covering are reduced by one air supply. Since the material air mat can be inflated, the procedure for assembling the tent or the like at the time of construction can be facilitated, and the confidentiality inside the tent or the like can be enhanced. Here, when a single flat air mat is used, for example, a predetermined portion of the air mat can be bent to form a closed structure such that an end and the like can be disengaged and joined, and the whole is integrated. When the air mat is formed, the air mat can be formed into a closed shape by, for example, butting both ends of the air mat and joining and integrating them.

[0008] The wind eliminator herein is a small room installed adjacent to the entrance of the main tent or the like. For example, take off shoes or rain clothes before entering the main tent. It is provided to keep the main tent warm, etc., even when it takes a lot of trouble.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, the air mat is formed by connecting an airtight front base fabric and a back base fabric with a large number of connecting yarns having a substantially constant length and airtightly processing the periphery.

By forming the air mat as described above, high-pressure air can be filled, and the rigidity of the tent and the like can be further increased. When a person is on the air mat, even if someone moves around due to movement or the like, the peripheral thickness does not change and a stable state can be maintained.

[0011]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Here, FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an example of a tent and a wind chamber for a tent according to the present invention, FIG. 2 is an explanatory view showing an example of a form of an air mat, and FIGS. 3 and 4 show examples of a bent structure of the air mat. FIG. 5 is an explanatory view showing each example of a structure such as a tent, and FIG. 6 is an explanatory view of a structure in which the ends of an air mat are joined and integrated.

The tent or tent wind chamber according to the present invention is applied to, for example, a tent 1A of the form shown in FIG. 1 or a wind chamber 1B adjacent to the tent 1A. 1B is the awning material 2A, 2B respectively
And the floor coverings 3A and 3B, the ceiling surface, the left and right side surfaces of the tent material 2A of the tent 1A and the floor covering 3A are integrally formed by bending a single air mat, and the wind removal chamber 1B
The ceiling surface, left and right side surfaces of the awning material 2B and the floor covering material 3B are also integrally formed by bending a single air mat.

Here, the tent wind removal chamber 1B is provided with a tent 1A.
For example, when it takes time to enter the tent 1A when the tent 1A is prepared, if the wind is blown into the tent 1A,
It is configured to prevent escape of warm air in A. The structure of the wind chamber 1B is substantially the same as the structure of the tent 1A.
Although it is fixed to the entrance of A, in the following description and some of the drawings, the case of the tent 1A will be described as a representative example.

An air mat used for a part of the awning material 2A and the floor covering material 3A is, for example, as shown in FIG. A structure in which a plurality of connecting yarns 6 are connected to each other and the periphery thereof is air-tightly covered with a sealing material 7 to seal the inside, and the inside is filled with air so as to be flattened, as shown in FIG. As shown in the figure, a cover material 9 surrounds a plurality of air tubes 8 of the air column type.
It is possible to apply a structure that is covered with and flattened, or a structure that is flattened by other methods.
In the embodiment, an air mat having a structure shown in FIG. 2A capable of filling high-pressure air and increasing the overall rigidity is employed, and has a thickness of about 8 cm.

As the material of the front base cloth 4 and the back base cloth 5, for example, the surface of a woven fabric is coated with an air-tight material such as rubber or resin, or the surface of the woven fabric is a rubber sheet or a resin sheet. The airtight sheet material is adhered. At least one of the front base cloth 4 and the back base cloth 5 is provided with a supply / exhaust hole for filling and exhausting air, so that supply / exhaust can be performed using a pump or the like.

The bent structure of the air mat is, for example, as shown in FIG. 3, a pair of male and female fasteners 1 reinforced on the surface of the air mat with a V-shaped tape 10 across a bending line p.
1a and 11b, and the fasteners 11a and 11b can be freely connected. As shown in FIG.
Instead of 1a and 11b, a pair of braided bands 12 is provided, and a structure in which the braided band 13 of the braided band 13 is braided through the rope 14 or any other structure can be adopted. A structure using 11b is simple and preferable.

In such a structure, especially when the air mat is filled with high-pressure air, a restoring force is applied to the air mat so as to basically spread outward and return to a flat state. The overall rigidity including the bent portion can be extremely increased.

FIG. 5 shows an example of a specific structure of the tent 1A or the like adopting the above-mentioned bending structure. That is, FIGS. 5 (a) and 5 (b) show that one air mat is bent and the upper surface and both right and left sides of the awning material 2A and the floor covering material 3A are shown.
5A is a closed shape. In FIG. 5A, the joining end is set to the corner of the floor covering material 3A, and FIG.
In this example, the joint is set in the middle of the floor covering 3A. These joints can be made detachable by a fastener structure or a braided structure as shown in FIG. 3 or 4, for example.

FIG. 5 (c) shows a configuration example in which the upper surface and both left and right side surfaces of the awning material 2A and the respective surfaces of the floor covering material 3A are closed by an integrated air mat. As shown in FIG. 6, for example, as shown in FIG. 6, the ends of the folded air mat are joined to each other by affixing the sealing material 15 to each other, and the whole is integrated by closing the inside to form an air mat. I can do it.

The front and rear surfaces of the tent 1A and the like may be covered with, for example, waterproof canvas or tarpaulin to form an internal space, or may be surrounded by an air mat or the like to form the internal space. Alternatively, a canvas, a tarpaulin sheet, an air mat, or the like provided on the front surface or the rear surface of the tent may be detachably attached. Alternatively, the front and rear surfaces may be formed by covering the air mat with a waterproof cover from above. Furthermore, it is also possible to provide a connecting tool around the side surface of the air mat so that a plurality of air mats can be connected, thereby expanding the internal space in the front-rear direction of the tent. At this time, by covering at least the upper surface portion of the tent with a waterproof sheet, it is possible to further prevent infiltration of rainwater from the connecting portion.

When assembling the tent 1A or the tent wind-removal chamber 1B constructed as described above, for example, a required portion is bent, and when the joining portion has a disengagement structure, it is joined, and then a pump or the like is mounted. The work is completed only by inflating the air mat with air by using it. At this time, the structure of the air mat is maintained at a constant thickness by the connecting yarn 6 irrespective of the air filling amount, so that the air mat can be filled at a high pressure, and the overall rigidity can be increased, and , The outside air shielding effect is enhanced, and the heat insulating property can be improved because the number of joints is small.

Further, since the floor covering material 3A is also an air mat, the cushioning property is ensured, there is no problem that cold air is transmitted from the ground, and rainwater or the like is hardly permeated. Furthermore,
Since there are no overhangs such as pillars, the internal space such as a tent can be widely used. Therefore, it is suitable for a case where a tent is forced to live for a long period of time, particularly in a disaster, or on a cold day or a rainy day.

As described above, the awning material 2A and the floor covering material 3A
In the case of a structure in which the air mat is large, the air mat may be large, so that a plurality of air supply / exhaust holes by a pump or the like may be provided. In this case, the air supply / exhaust holes may be located at close positions. The air can be supplied by a single pump or the like, which is convenient.

The present invention is not limited to the above embodiment. Those having substantially the same configuration as those described in the claims of the present invention and exhibiting the same operation and effect belong to the technical scope of the present invention. For example, although the above description has been made mainly on the tent 1A, the present invention may be applied to the wind elimination chamber 1B, and the shape and size of the tent 1A and the like are arbitrary.

[0025]

As described above, according to the present invention, in an air tent or a tent windbreak room provided with an air mat tent material and an air mat floor covering material, at least a part of the tent material and the floor covering material are formed into one flat sheet. Because it is composed of an air mat or a whole air mat, it is possible to improve the heat retention inside the tent and the like, and the cushioning is also good, and it is possible to suppress the infiltration of rainwater etc. I can do it. At this time, if the air mat is formed by connecting the air-tight front base cloth and the back base cloth with a large number of connecting yarns having a substantially constant length and air-tightly processing the periphery as an air mat, the rigidity of the tent or the like can be improved. And the ground sheet ensures stability.
