Description

  The present invention relates to a bipod tent having a structure in which a roof is made of a plurality of frames and is supported by two columns.

  Conventionally, a tent having a roof made of a plurality of frames generally has four or six columns or legs, and is widely spread. These four-legged and six-legged tents have a roof structure having a square planar shape composed of a roof curtain and a roof structure frame that supports the roof curtain. Generally, a structure is adopted in which pillars are respectively attached to the four corners, and in some cases, one pillar is attached to each of the midpoint positions in the longitudinal direction of the roof structure. Examples of such a tent include a tent as disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2005-2699 (Patent Document 1) previously disclosed by the inventors of the present invention. The tent disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2005-2699 can adopt a structure in which the roof structure is supported by three or more frames, but is basically the same as the above four-leg tent. The structure is adopted. A tent with such a structure is easy to install and store and has a high degree of stability in the installed state, but on the other hand, it is very heavy and can be folded or disassembled for storage. There was a problem of being bulky. In addition, since pillars are attached to at least all four corners or corners of the roof structure, there is a problem that it is closed and does not look good.

JP 2005-2699 A

  In the above prior art, although there is stability, the number of support columns is large, so that it is heavy and large even in the storage state. In addition, the four corners of the tent were closed because they were attached to the tent, making them feel pressured and not looking great.

  The present invention is intended to solve these problems. The biped tent has an unprecedented appearance and reduces the weight by reducing the number of support columns to two, and improves the closing performance. I will provide a. Since the conventional tent had pillars at the four corners, the roof curtain was able to maintain strong tension by receiving strong tension at the pillar part, but when there are two pillars, the four corners of the roof curtain are directly attached to the pillars. Since it is not held and is indirectly supported by the roof frame, it is pulled inward by the weight of the roofing curtain, and in particular, the end of the edge extension frame that forms part of the roof structure frame body is pulled toward the inside of the tent. The roof curtain tends to hang down. Therefore, the present invention is intended to provide a bipod tent that is lightweight and can be folded in a compact manner, prevents the drape of the roof curtain, improves stability, and improves appearance.

Tent of the present invention, at least in a tent having a roof structure comprising a roof structural frame member for supporting and stretched the roof curtain roof curtain, supports for the roof structure are two present der, And, when the roof structure is extended, the roof is formed by a tension member which is arranged so as to connect the two support columns and has at least a length extending between the two support columns. It is characterized by having a folding prevention means for preventing the structure from being folded inward, and further, the folding prevention means is a tension member configured to be foldable. Further, the folding preventing means is preliminarily incorporated in the roof structure frame. Further, the folding preventing means is a retrofit structure that is not incorporated in the roof structure frame body in advance and prevents folding while being sandwiched between two columns after the roof structure is formed.

  In addition, the roof structure frame body in the tent is configured to be foldable, and the roof structure frame body includes at least a frame structure body having an X shape by overlapping two rod-shaped frames with each other. It is characterized by including one and being foldable.

  Further, the support column that supports the roof structure is configured to be detachable, foldable, or extendable. Further, the fall prevention member for preventing the fall of the tent is arranged at the lower end of the support column.

  According to the present invention, a roof structure composed of a roof curtain and a roof structure frame body that supports the roof curtain is extended and supported by the two columns, and a part of the roof structure frame body is configured during the extension. Folding prevention means that prevents the tip of the edge extension frame from being pulled inside the tent to prevent the tension of the roof curtain from declining, and has a foldable structure that can be easily extended and stored. As a result, it is possible to provide a tent that is lighter and more compact in storage size while ensuring stability, is free from a feeling of pressure, and has an improved appearance.

  A preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described below. The bipod tent according to the present invention is configured so that a roof structure composed of a roof curtain and a roof structure frame body that supports the roof curtain is extended and supported by two columns. Moreover, it is preferable that a folding preventing means for preventing the roof structure from approaching to the inside when the roof structure is expanded is provided. This folding preventing means is composed of one or more frames arranged so as to connect one strut side and the other strut side and having a length extending at least between these two struts. The length is sometimes maintained, and it is preferably a tension member that can be folded compactly by shortening the length when stored. Further, the folding prevention means can be configured to be included in the roof structure frame at least at the time of installation, and by configuring in this way, the space under the roof structure can be made wider and cleaner. This is preferable. Further, at this time, the folding preventing means is configured to be previously incorporated in the roof structure frame as a part of the roof structure frame body, and sandwiched between the two columns after the roof structure frame body is formed, thereby preventing folding. In addition, it can be appropriately selected to be a retrofitted structure.

  The roof structure frame body is preferably configured to be foldable. In this case, for example, the roof structure frame body may be configured to be foldable by using a frame structure body that has an X shape by overlapping two rod-shaped frames. Can do.

  Moreover, in order to improve the compactness at the time of accommodation, it is preferable that the support | pillar which supports a roof structure is comprised by the detachable or foldable or telescopic structure, or these combined structures. Installation of a bipod tent constructed in this way may be started up by embedding the lower ends of the two columns supporting the roof structure in the ground, but preventing the tip from falling over It is preferable to provide a fall prevention member for this purpose.

  Here, the overturn prevention member is a member for preventing the tent from overturning, and means a commonly used overturn prevention member. As an example, as shown in FIG. 1, FIG. 2, FIG. 3, etc., there can be mentioned a rod-shaped anti-falling portion (10) extending in two different horizontal directions. Moreover, the thing extended in planar shape may be sufficient. Moreover, even if a tripod-like member is attached to the lower end of the column, the same effect is exhibited.

  Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. As shown in FIG. 1 or FIG. 2, the biped tent (1) of Example 1 has a roof curtain (2) extended in a plane rectangle and a substantially triangular side, and a roof structure that supports the roof curtain (2). It has a roof structure (4) composed of a frame body (3). The roof structure (4) is arranged in two pieces, one on each side in the longitudinal direction of the roof structure (4) so as to extend downward from the roof structure frame (3). It is supported by a book column (5). This support column (5) is inserted into the upper cylindrical column (6) having a relatively thick inner diameter with the lower cylindrical column (7) having an outer diameter slightly narrower than the inner diameter. A fixing tool (8) is provided so that it can be fixed by the lens, and is configured to be stretchable. A fall-preventing member (9) extending straight and horizontally with respect to the width direction of the roof structure (4) is fixed to the lower end of each column (5) configured in this manner, and is installed on the ground. The biped tent (1) is configured to ensure stability, and the center of the anti-falling member (9) is relatively short in a horizontal direction straight to the longitudinal inward direction of the bipod tent. An anti-falling portion (10) for preventing the column (5) from falling over is provided.

  As shown in FIGS. 2 to 6, the roof structure frame body (3) has a total of four end side extension frames (11), a total of two sliding members (12), and a total of four support frames. (13), one butterfly telescopic frame (14), a total of two mid-abdominal extension frames (15), a total of two mid-abdominal support frames (16), and a total of two tension members (17) Consists of

  The end-side extension frame (11) has one end of each column (5) at one end so that arcuate rotation is possible from a position just below to a position directly above in a vertical plane parallel to the width direction of the roof. It is comprised so that the edge part of the longitudinal direction of the roof curtain (2) attached to an upper end may be supported. The sliding member (12) is attached to each of the two columns (5) so as to be able to slide freely along the column (5).

  The support frame (13) has one end attached to each of the sliding members (12) so that an arcuate rotation from a position directly below to a position directly above is possible in a vertical plane parallel to the width direction of the roof. It is attached, and the other end is rotatably connected to and supported by the middle position of the end side extension frame (11).

  The butterfly telescopic frame (14) is composed of two X-shaped frames (19) that are pivotable by overlapping two rod-shaped frames (18) overlapping each other and pinning both at this intersection. They are connected together so as to be freely rotatable using a connector (20), and their upper end portions can be freely rotated in a vertical plane parallel to the longitudinal direction with respect to the upper end portion of the column (5). The lower ends of the sliding members (12) are connected to each other so as to be freely rotatable in a vertical plane parallel to the longitudinal direction.

  The middle abdominal part extension frame (15) is connected to the above-mentioned connecting tool (one end is located above so that an arcuate rotation from a position just below to a position directly above in a vertical plane parallel to the width direction of the roof is possible. 20) It is configured to support the longitudinal middle part of the roof curtain (2) attached to it.

  The middle abdominal part support frame (16) is connected to the above-mentioned connector (one end is located downward so that arcuate rotation from a position just below to a position directly above in a vertical plane parallel to the width direction of the roof is possible. 20) and the other end is rotatably connected to and supported by the middle position of the middle abdomen extension frame (15).

  The strut member (17), which is one of the folding preventing means, is disposed so as to connect one strut side and the other strut side, and has a length extending at least between these two struts. It consists of the above frames. The tension member (17) is such that the end of the edge extension frame (11) constituting a part of the roof structure frame body (3) is drawn toward the inside of the tent, and the tension of the roof curtain (2) is reduced. To prevent this, it is possible to construct two struts (5) at both ends of one frame, but make a strut member (17) with two or more frames, and this strut member (17) As shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, the one attached to the support frame (13) is excellent in stability.

  Further, as described above, the strut member (17) penetrates the mid-abdominal support frame (16) into the two support frames (13) attached to the two columns (5) via the sliding members (12). However, in order to maintain the tension of the roof curtain (2), it is possible to extend from the top of the two pillars (5) and to extend the two edges. A strut member (17) can be attached to the front end of the frame (11) through the middle abdomen support frame (16) (not shown).

  The tension member (17), which is one of the folding preventing means, can be configured to be foldable. In that case, as shown in Fig. 5, when the tension member (17) is made a joint part (21) at a position of 1/4 or 3/4 of its length, The structure is bent in a V shape. The joint portion (21) here has a joint structure that bends when a force in the ground direction is applied, but of course, it may have a joint structure that bends when applied in the sky direction. Further, as shown in FIG. 4, the end of the tension member (17) is rotatably attached to the support frame (13), and the substantially central portion of the tension member (17) is shown in FIGS. As shown in FIG. 3, it has a structure that penetrates the mid-abdominal support frame (16).

  The roof structure frame configured as described above can be raised to an appropriate position while sliding the sliding member along the support column. The maximum position of the sliding member defines the maximum extension of the butterfly telescopic frame and the inclination angle of the extension frames (15) and (16) for extending and supporting the roof curtain. Of course, if the roof curtain constructed as shown in FIG. 1 is previously attached to the roof structure frame body, the uppermost position of the sliding member is naturally defined by the width of the roof curtain, and therefore the roof curtain is extended. The inclination angle from the horizontal of the extending frames (15) and (16) to be supported is also defined. FIG. 4 schematically shows a side state in which the bipod tent is extended in this manner.

  The state of the roof structure frame body in the middle of expansion and contraction of the bipod tent of this embodiment is shown in FIG. When the sliding member is positioned below the uppermost position, the butterfly telescopic frame is shortened by shortening the length of the tent from its longest direction. At this time, each joint of the tension member configured as described above is used. Each part can be bent into a V shape, a heft shape, and a V shape, and can be bent and expanded as a whole so that the length in the longitudinal direction of the tent can be freely changed.

  FIG. 6 shows a state in which the sliding member (12) is lowered to the vicinity of the lowest position and the roof structure (4) is folded. Although not shown, the sliding member (12) is further lowered to the lowest position, the strut (5) configured to be stretchable is contracted, and the overturn prevention member (9) and the overturn prevention portion (10 ) In a V shape with respect to the column (5), a compact biped tent (1) can be obtained.

As shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, the biped tent (22) of Example 2 is only half the width direction compared to the roof curtain (2) of the bipod tent (1) of Example 1. A roof structure (23) is formed in the interior. Further, the fall prevention member (25) attached to the lower end of the column (24) also has a structure that extends in the same direction as the roof structure (23) and extends in the opposite direction. Of course, it is needless to say that the fall prevention member (25) may be loaded with a sandbag or the like to increase the stability, or the fall prevention member (25) may be embedded in the ground. Absent.

  Moreover, FIG. 8 has shown the state which lowered | hung the sliding member (12) to the lowest position and folded the roof structure (23). As shown in FIG. 8, a tension member (26) composed of several rod-like frames that are connected to each other in the longitudinal direction and can be integrated to be fixed to a length corresponding to the distance between the struts (24) during expansion. Is a folding prevention means, and a clamp (28) having a holding portion (27) formed in a substantially C-shape for gripping an appropriate portion of the tension member (26) includes a support frame (13) and a middle An end extension frame that is fixed to an appropriate in-phase position of the abdominal support frame (16) and forms a part of the roof structure frame body by gripping the tension member (26) by the clamp (28). Is attracted to the inside of the tent to prevent the tension of the roof curtain from diminishing. Needless to say, at the time of storage, the tension member (26) is detached from the clamp (28), and the rod-like frames can be detached and disassembled to be compact.

  In the present embodiment, the description of the same configuration as in the first and second embodiments will be omitted, and different configurations will be described with reference to the drawings. As shown in FIGS. 9 and 10, the biped tent (29) of the third embodiment is shorter on one side in the width direction than the roof curtain (2) of the bipod tent (1) of the first embodiment. Thus, the roof structure (30) is configured. The short extension frame (31) has only a length up to the connecting portion to which the support frame (32) is connected, and is configured to be relatively short. Moreover, the fall prevention member (34) attached to the lower end of the column (33) also has a structure that extends in the same direction as the roof structure (30) and extends in the opposite direction. FIG. 10 shows a side view of the folded state of the roof structure (30) thus configured.

  In the present embodiment, the description of the same configuration as in the first to third embodiments will be omitted, and different configurations will be described with reference to the drawings. As shown in FIGS. 11 and 12, the bipod tent (35) of the fourth embodiment is shorter on one side in the width direction than the roof curtain (2) of the bipod tent (1) of the first embodiment. Thus, the roof structure (36) is configured. The long roof structure portion (37) in the width direction is configured to incline downward from the upper end of the support column (38), and the short roof structure portion (39) is upward from the upper end of the support column (38).
