JP5033055B2 - Unfoldable folding tent with tent - Google Patents

Description

  The present invention is applied to a tent with a tent that can freely expand and fold the tent with the tent tent attached to the inner and outer surfaces of the framework (hereinafter referred to as a frame), and more specifically to a large tent. It is related to a tent with a tent that is useful.

  Conventionally, the frame and the awning are separated and stored in a folded state, and the frame is assembled or deployed during use, and the awning is attached to the inner surface or the outer surface of the frame. Assembling and folding tents are publicly known and publicly known as examples, but in large tents that can accommodate a large number of people especially in disaster areas, the frame and tent can be folded almost without exception, and It is customary to assemble and fold each separately during assembly. This point is also apparent from Patent Document 1 and the like.

  On the other hand, as a tent that can accommodate a large number of people, the roof part and the side wall part are formed into a hollow sealed double wall shape by a awning member, and the inside is filled with air or discharged to assemble it. A so-called frame resten- tation that can be folded is also proposed by Patent Document 2 and the like.

  However, when assembling and folding tents that handle the frame and awning separately, it takes time to assemble and fix the awning on the assembled frame when it is large, and the operation at the time of folding is in reverse order of assembly. However, because of the manual work, there is a problem that it takes time to work as in the case of assembly.

On the other hand, frameless tents are also known. For example, in a tent that uses air filling, exhaust assembly, and folding, it is troublesome to assemble and disassemble the frame and attach or remove the awning to the frame. Although it is not, there is a problem that it takes a considerable amount of time to expand it as a tent even if it uses a power pump to supply and discharge air to and from a large-capacity hollow double roof space or double wall space. , In addition to making a dedicated pump indispensable for folding, there is also a problem that a tent collapses due to air leakage if a hole or the like is made in the roof or wall due to an external factor.

First, a rectangular basic frame BF, which is the main trunk of the structural frame of the tent of the present invention, will be described with reference to FIG.
In the basic frame BF in FIG. 2, 1 and 2 are frame materials made of two pipes made of a light alloy, a synthetic fiber, or a composite material thereof, which are crossed acutely at an intermediate portion. The basic frame BF is formed of four sets of frame materials 1 and 2 each having two sets. The four sets of frame members 1 and 2 are arranged in a substantially rectangular shape when viewed from the front, and the facing ends of the frame members 1 and 2 are connected by the hub-like binding tools H _A and H _B illustrated in FIG. Thus, the rectangular frame SF is formed.

The hub-like tying tools H _A and H _B illustrated in FIG. 3 (hereinafter simply referred to as the hub H _A or the moving H _B ) have substantially the same shape, and are formed on the circumference of the annular base H1 by a metal ring. These are formed by mounting eight short connecting arms H2 radially equidistantly so as to freely swing up and down (rotate at least 180 degrees in the vertical direction). The ends of the pipe frame materials 1 and 2 are detachably coupled and fixed to the hub H _A or H _B so that the hubs H _A and H _B serve as connecting portions of the frame materials 1 and 2. Function. The hub-like couplers H _A and H _B used in the present invention are not limited to those in the form of the illustrated example, but the above-described frame members 1 and 2 and frame members 3 and 4 described later are coupled as described above. Any function may be used.

A set of the frame members 1 and 2 to one end of the frame member 1 is one of the hub H _A in the present invention, along with the other hub H _B is coupled to the other end, the other one of the frame The other hub H _B is coupled to one end of the material 2, and one hub H _A is coupled to the other end. That is, the hubs H _A and H _B are not located at both ends of the pair of frame members 1 and 2 crossed at an acute angle so that the same hub H _A or H _B is not located on the same side.
In the basic frame BF shown in FIG. 2, the hubs H _A and H _B are attached to both ends of the frame material 1 and 2 having a pair of acute angles located above and below, respectively. In the basic frame BF, a set of two vertically oriented frame members 1, 2 arranged on the left and right are provided at the upper and lower ends of the frame members 1, 2 arranged in the horizontal direction above and below, respectively. Each of the hubs H _A and H _B shared with each other is connected to each of the hubs H _A and H _B , thereby forming a rectangular frame SF schematically shown in FIG.

  Next, the X-shaped frame Xf will be described because the X-shaped frame Xf is connected to the inside of the rectangular frame SF. The sub-frame members 3 and 4 forming the frame Xf are formed with an acute angle similar to that of the frame members 1 and 2, with the frame members 3 and 4 having a length approximately half of the diagonal length of the rectangular frame SF. It is formed by using four sets of two subframe materials 3 and 4 crossed at.

The four sets of sub-frames 3 and 4 are arranged in an X shape inside the quadrangular frame SF, and the two sub-frames 3 and 4 are connected to the two hubs H _A and H _B arranged substantially at the midpoint position of the quadrilateral frame SF. While connecting the end portions located inside the frame materials 3 and 4, the end portions located outside the sub-frame materials 3 and 4 of each set are connected to the hubs H _A and H _{B at} the four corners of the rectangular frame SF. Are connected to these hubs H _A and H _B to form the basic frame BF (see FIG. 2).
When connecting the X-shaped frame Xf to the quadrangular frame SF, the hubs H _A and H _B to which both ends of each pair of sub-frame materials 3 and 4 are connected select two types of hubs H _A or H _B. Connect.

As described above, the basic frame BF formed by connecting the sub-frame members 3 and 4 as well as the respective frame members 1 and 4 together by selecting and combining the hubs H _A and H _B is shown in FIG. As illustrated in FIG. 2, when the two hubs H _A and H _B located in the middle of the X-shaped frame Xf are separated in the solid arrow direction and the dotted arrow direction, two types of hubs H at the four corners of the rectangular frame SF are obtained. _A and H _B move in substantially the same direction as the hubs H _A and H _{B in} the separated intermediate positions or in the movement direction.

In the basic frame BF, each set of the frame materials 1 and 2 and the subframe materials 3 and 4 are shifted from the acute crossover state to the obtuse angle side as described above in the hubs H _A and H _B in which both ends are respectively coupled. In order to ensure the movement to open and move, the acute angle crossing point in each set of frame materials 1 and 2 and each set of subframe materials 3 and 4 is stopped with a pin or the like, and each frame 1 and 2 or The open / close point of the sandwiching angle between 3 and 4 is set at a fixed position. By doing so, the quadrangular basic frame BF is composed of the frame material 1, 2 and the sub frame materials 3, 4 in one set of two pieces, and the end side provided with the hub _HA. assembled at the end side to each other with hub H _B, all the frame members 1 and 2, like 3 and 4 are set in all vertical posture. The above opening operation of the frame materials 1 and 2 and the subframe materials 3 and 4 in the basic frame BF is the basis of the folding operation of the tent of the present invention.

In the tent of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 1, first, a plurality of basic frames BF having the above-described structure and operation mode are arranged in the vertical direction, and the frame material 1 in each arranged basic frame BF. , 2 and the hubs H _A and H _B to which the subframe members 3 and 4 are coupled are connected in a shared manner, so that the front wall frame 5 located on the front side of the tent frame 5 is connected to the frame 5. A rear wall frame 7 connected to the opposite side of the roof frame 6 and the roof frame 6 is formed.

On the other hand, for each of the frames 5 to 7 connected and arranged in the vertical direction, on the left and right sides of the frame members 1 and 2 in the roof frame 6, a basic frame BF that becomes the left side wall frame 8 and the right side wall frame 9 is arranged. The basic frames BF are connected to each other in such a manner that the hubs H _A and H _B that overlap each other in the frames 6, 8, and 9 are shared.

  By connecting and arranging the frames 5 to 9 as described above, the tent structure frame TF in a standing and unfolded state is formed (see FIG. 1). In the present invention, the outer awning member Ro and the inner awning member Ri are attached to the outer surface side and the inner surface side of the frame TF with respect to the unfolded structural frame TF.

  In the tent structure frame TF for mounting the awning members Ro and Ri, there is a frameless gap at the boundary part (opposing part) between the front and rear wall frames 5 and 7 and the left and right wall frames 8 and 9. Since it is formed, the awning members Ro and Ri in which the cuts are defined as the entrances I and O are attached to the structural frame TF (see FIG. 4).

The fixing points (attachment points) to the tent structure frame TF of the two awning members Ro and Ri are the hubs H _A and H _B. When the inner and outer awning members Ro and Ri are attached to the hubs H _A and H _B , the structural frame TF is folded at the hubs H _A and H _B in the basic frames BF constituting the awning members. The structural frame TF can be folded even with the members Ro and Ri attached.

  The tent of the present invention formed as described above is not shown, but flaps are provided on the tent members Ro and Ri located on the left, right and front and rear walls of the tent that is unfolded for the purpose of ventilation and external observation. Additional windows can be provided. In the tent of the present invention, a ventilation hole is formed at any position on the left or right side wall, and an air conditioner package (air conditioner main body, which is not shown) but is arranged outside the tent of the present invention is not shown in the hole. By connecting the wind pipe connected to), the inside of the tent can be air-conditioned.

  Furthermore, in the tent of the present invention, as schematically shown in FIG. 5, the basic frame BF that becomes the roof frame 6 and the basic frame BF that becomes the left and right side wall frames 8 and 9 are connected and increased without attaching the awning members Ro and Ri. By doing so, the size (volume) of the tent can be increased or decreased in units of the size of the basic frame BF. In addition, when the size of the structural frame TF is changed by increasing or decreasing the basic frame BF and the size of the tent is changed, the awning members Ro and Ri to be applied are the sizes suitable for the changed structural frame TF. Use the same thing.

  The present invention is as described above. (A) Two frame members crossed at an acute angle in the middle are arranged so as to form a quadrangular outline, and the opposite ends of each frame member are connected to a hub-like binding tool. A rectangular frame formed such that each frame material is doubled in an acute angle crossing state, and (b) doubled in a state where the frame material is crossed at an acute angle in the middle, and from the frame material (C) an X-shaped frame comprising four sets of short sub-frame members and an X-shaped frame connected in an X shape with an intermediate hub-shaped tie as a joint at a midpoint on the diagonal of the rectangular frame. A base frame is formed by connecting each outer end of each sub-frame material to the hub-like binding tool facing at the four corners of the rectangular frame, and (d) the basic frame is a front wall frame, a roof frame, and a rear frame of the tent.
