Nonetheless, it is to be appreciated that aspects of the present invention are also equally applicable to other like applications, devices, and methods of manufacture.
- a faraday cage is an enclosure made from conducting metals that blocks external electric fields. Faraday cages are commonly used to protect different kinds of electronic equipment from electrostatic discharges.
- a faraday cage works on the principle that when an electromagnetic field hits something that can conduct electricity, the charges remain on the exterior of the conductor rather than traveling inside. This means that a faraday cage constructed from a metal that can conduct electricity will prevent certain electromagnetic radiation from passing through. This applies to both constant, static, electric fields and changing, non-static, electric fields.
- Electromagnetic pulses, solar flares, or any other electromagnetic radiation can cause serious damage to a vehicle's electronics.
- the vehicle can be rendered completely immobile, ultimately requiring extensive repairs or a full replacement.
- Other electronics can also be ruined by electromagnetic radiation without a proper storage area.
- Faraday cages are very common in today's world. Microwave ovens are faraday cages that are used in most homes and businesses. Faraday cages are used to protect vital IT and other electrical equipment from electromagnetic pulses and lightning strikes.

No. 17/884,835, which was filed on Aug. 10, 2022 and claims the priority benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 63/234,403, which was filed on Aug. 18, 2021, both of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.
- The present invention relates generally to the field of faraday cages. More specifically, the present invention relates to a carport tent faraday cage device. The device is primarily comprised of a tent body, further comprised of at least one roof frame, at least one wall frame, and at least one door. The roof frame and wall frame are both further comprised of at least one vertical frame member and at least one horizontal frame member. The tent body is comprised of three layers, an exterior layer, a middle layer, and an interior layer. Further, the tent body material has a middle layer that is comprised of a woven copper wire to prevent the electromagnetic radiation from entering the device. The device is further comprised of a rubber base, further comprised of wire mesh. The device further is comprised of a grounding stake and a tether to direct the electrical current away from the device and into the ground. The device provides users with a device to store their vehicles and other electronic devices without the risk of damage by electromagnetic radiation. The device acts as a faraday cage and keeps all contents unharmed by electromagnetic radiation. Accordingly, the present disclosure makes specific reference thereto. Nonetheless, it is to be appreciated that aspects of the present invention are also equally applicable to other like applications, devices, and methods of manufacture.
- By way of background, a faraday cage is an enclosure made from conducting metals that blocks external electric fields. Faraday cages are commonly used to protect different kinds of electronic equipment from electrostatic discharges. A faraday cage works on the principle that when an electromagnetic field hits something that can conduct electricity, the charges remain on the exterior of the conductor rather than traveling inside. This means that a faraday cage constructed from a metal that can conduct electricity will prevent certain electromagnetic radiation from passing through. This applies to both constant, static, electric fields and changing, non-static, electric fields.
- Electromagnetic pulses, solar flares, or any other electromagnetic radiation can cause serious damage to a vehicle's electronics. The vehicle can be rendered completely immobile, ultimately requiring extensive repairs or a full replacement. Other electronics can also be ruined by electromagnetic radiation without a proper storage area.
- Faraday cages are very common in today's world. Microwave ovens are faraday cages that are used in most homes and businesses. Faraday cages are used to protect vital IT and other electrical equipment from electromagnetic pulses and lightning strikes.
- Therefore, there exists a long-felt need in the art for an improved carport. There also exists a long-felt need in the art for a carport that can protect the electronics of a vehicle from electromagnetic radiation, like an EMP or solar flare. There also exists a long-felt need in the art for a faraday cage that an individual can park their vehicle in to protect the vehicle and other items from electromagnetic radiation. There also exists a long-felt need in the art for a safe, secure, and convenient storage area for any personal or commercial vehicle as well as other larger electronic devices.
- The subject matter disclosed and claimed herein, in one embodiment thereof, comprises a carport tent faraday cage device. The device is primarily comprised of a tent body, further comprised of at least one roof frame and at least one wall frame, and at least one door. The device is comprised of a rubber base, further comprised of wire mesh and at least one entrance ramp to allow a vehicle to enter the device easily. At least one grounding stake of the device transfers any electromagnetic radiation that hits the device into the ground causing no electrical damage to any of the contents stored inside the device.
- In this manner, the carport tent faraday cage device of the present invention accomplishes all of the foregoing objectives and provides a novel carport that can protect an individual's vehicles or other large electronics from electromagnetic radiation.
