Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To set and remove a tent easily by storing bottom chord supporting frames which constitute a tent structure in a main body structure and extending and retracting the bottom chord supporting frames. SOLUTION: Multiple bottom chord supporting frames 6 of telescopable telescopic structure are stored in a bottom chord supporting frame storing part 7 as a part of a main body structure 1. Also an outrigger 5 is installed at the top end and middle parts of the bottom chord supporting frame 6. Then multiple frame-shaped structural frames 4 comprising vertical frames 4a and roof frames 4b are arranged between two bottom chord supporting frames 6 through a brace material 3, and the structure frame 4 is covered by a tent film material 2. Thus an installation work can be performed easily in a short period, and a tent can be set and removed easily.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a simple folding tent structure. More specifically, the present invention relates to a tent structure that can be mounted on a traveling vehicle or the like, can be deployed by a simple assembly work, and can be easily folded when the vehicle is traveling. Further, it can be applied to a windproof tent of a normal temperature snowmaking machine (turbo snowman).

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a tent has been installed as a single unit and connected to a vehicle at each place to be integrated. At the time of removal, it was separated from the vehicle, the tent was separated into a frame and a film material, and they were transported to the next location separately, which was very time-consuming. Also,
The frame was long and could not be folded compactly.

[0003]

Conventionally, a tent has been installed / removed as a single unit, the length of a frame or the like is limited, it cannot be folded compactly, and it takes a lot of time and effort to transfer it. The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned conventional art, and a simple folding tent structure that can be made compact in size when folded is provided by housing a part of a support frame that constitutes the tent structure in the main body structure. The purpose is to provide.

[0004]

The simple folding tent structure of the present invention which achieves the above object accommodates a plurality of extendable lower chord supporting frames in a part of the main body structure, and one or more of the lower chord supporting frames is provided. Arrange two or more frame frames slidably as the lower string support frame expands and contracts,
Further, it is characterized in that the frame frame is covered with a tent film material. Here, a mobile vehicle is used as the main body structure, or the tip of the lower chord support frame is
It is characterized in that an outrigger serving as a pillar is provided between the ground and the ground.

[0005]

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION In the present invention, since the lower chord supporting frame constituting the tent structure is housed in the main body structure, the frame frame slides by expanding and contracting the lower chord supporting frame, and the tent film material is The tent can be easily set by unfolding it, and the tent can be easily removed by folding the tent film material.

Further, if a traveling vehicle is used as the main body structure, the tent can be easily moved. Further, by providing an outrigger as a support at the tip of the lower string support frame, a cantilever state can be avoided and a stable support state can be maintained.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to embodiments shown in the drawings. A simple folding tent structure according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIGS. As shown in both figures, in the lower string support frame housing portion 7 which is a part of the main body structure 1, two expandable lower string support frames 6 are housed.

The lower chord support frame 6 may be of a structure which is capable of expanding and contracting in the horizontal direction, for example, a structure in which cylindrical bodies are multiply fitted and slidable in the axial direction, that is, a so-called telescopic structure. Further, the outriggers 5 serving as columns between the lower chord supporting frame 6 and the ground are attached to the front end and the middle of the lower chord supporting frame 6.

Further, a tent film material 2 serving as both side walls and a ceiling portion is foldably provided between the two lower chord supporting frames 6. That is, the two lower string support frames 6
A plurality of frame frames 4 are arranged between them with a breath material 3 interposed therebetween, and the tent film material 2 covering these frame frames 4
Is provided.

The frame frame 4 includes the lower chord supporting frames 6
A vertical frame 4a extending vertically upward and a ceiling frame 4b connecting the upper ends of these vertical frames 4a are connected in a frame shape. In the brace member 3, two sets of rods are diagonally crossed and pinned at the center between the vertical frames 4a so that each node can slide in the longitudinal direction with respect to the vertical frame 4a.

Therefore, according to the change in the interval between the frame frames 4, that is, as the lower chord supporting frame 6 expands and contracts.
The breath material 3 also expands and contracts similarly. Further, the frame frame 4 has a structure slidable with respect to the lower string support frame 6 so as not to hinder the expansion and contraction of the lower string support frame 6. However, of the frame frames 4, those arranged at the tip of the lower string support frame 6 do not have such an adverse effect and are fixed to the tip of the lower string support frame 6.

The tent film material 2 is attached so as to surround the outer side of the frame frame 4, and the frame frames 4 are fixed so as to be substantially equidistant in the expanded state as shown in FIG. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 1, when the lower chord supporting frame 6 is extended, the space between the frame frames 5 becomes longer, and the tent film material 2 is expanded to form both side surfaces and a ceiling surface.

As described above, when the lower chord supporting frame 6 is extended, the outriggers 5 support the lower chord supporting frame 6 as pillars, and therefore, the cantilever state does not occur.
A stable supporting state can be maintained. Further, as shown in FIG. 2, when the lower chord supporting frame 6 is retracted, the lower chord supporting frame 6 is substantially housed in the main body structure 1, and the frame frame 5 and the tent film material 2 are formed into a bellows-like main body. Will be folded into structure 1.

In the simple folding tent structure of the present embodiment having such a structure, since the lower chord supporting frame 6 constituting the tent structure is housed in the main body structure 1, the lower chord supporting frame 6 is extended / retracted. The tent can be easily installed and removed, and it can be compactly housed in the main body structure 1.

Further, if the main body structure 1 is a traveling vehicle or the like, there is also an advantage that it can be easily moved. However, the main body structure 1 is not limited to the traveling vehicle, and may be a fixed structure or the like. Further, it can be expected to improve work efficiency by applying it to a windproof tent which is an accessory of a room temperature snow machine.

[0016]

As described above in detail based on the embodiments, in the present invention, since the lower chord supporting frame constituting the tent structure is housed in the main body structure, the lower chord supporting frame can be extended and retracted. As a result, the tent can be easily installed and removed, and can be compactly housed in the main body structure. Further, if a traveling vehicle is used as the main body structure, there is also an advantage that the movement becomes easy. Further, by providing an outrigger as a support at the tip of the lower string support frame, a cantilever state can be avoided and a stable support state can be maintained.
