Claims.
This invention relates to walled structures of limp, pliable, impervious material and to the closing of inflatable walled structures, and is especially useful in the construction of tents, canopies,
portation of the structure.
In my application, Serial No. 74,033, filed February 1949, and entitled Wall Structure, I
from the atmosphere.
Objects of the cility of inflation of a walled structure; to provide for superior sealing of facilitate manufacture.
These and other objects will appear from the following description and the accompanying drawings.
Of the drawings,
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a walled structure constructed in accordance with and embody-1 ing the invention, the structure being in the form of a tent of conical form.
Fig. 2 is a developed plan view of the walled structure of the tent of Fig. 1 in uninflated condition.
Fig. 3 is an enlarged view of the apex portion of the tent as seen in Fig. 2, other parts being broken away.
Fig. 4 is a vertical sectional view of the apex of the tent in its inflated condition showing the clamping means in use.
Fig. 5 is a sectional view of the inner backing ring.
Fig. 6 is a perspective placing of the inflated inner backing ring.
Fig. 7 is a similar view showing the step of rolling the resilient clamping ring into clamping and sealing position.
Referring to the drawings, and first to Fig. 1, this shows a walled view illustrating the wall structure about the arcuate margin 9 pockets.
Conveniently, such a wall member may be formed by superimposing two sheets of pliable impervious material such as polymerized vinyl chloride composition, the sheets being of approximately semi-circular shape, and uniting the sheetsabout their margins and also alonglines corresponding to radii of the arc defining the curved margins of the sheets and arranged at be inflated to the des'ir'ed'amount. i-The tab'l2 may then be pinched between the fingers to prevent loss of air until the clamping means is applied.
For scaling 011 the inflated pockets, 2. ring'lfi of metal or other material, preferably of a stiff nature, and generally of frusto-conical or domed form is provided for supporting the upper margin of the wall member, the upper margin of'the walled member being wrapped thereabout, as illustrated in Fig. 6, where the tab 12 is held against the outer surface of the ring while the margin is drawn about the ring and the tab i4, held by the other hand, is then lapped over the tab 12. For retaining the wall member in place on the backing or supporting ring and at the same time sealing off communication from the inflated pockets, clamping member, preferably resilient annular ring ll, of rubber or similar material is placed over the margin of the wall member and resiliently presses against the wall member at the entrances to the pockets, sealing oil the pockets from each other. The ring I5 is provided with two circumferential grooves, which provide for increased convenience of appli cation of the clamp. One groove I8 is near the small end of the conical ring and is employed for normally supporting the resilient ring ll when the supporting ring is detached from the wall members. The other groove is is near the large end of the stiff ring and is used to seat the resilient clamping ring in clamping position. The grooves 18 and 19 are separated by a rounded hump 25 in the ring l6, as shown, over which the elastic ring may be rolled from one groove to the other. With the supporting ring detached from the wall member, and with the resilient ring initially in the groove [8, the wall member may be wrapped about the ring as illustrated in Fig. 6, the upper margin of the Wall being laid close to the resilient ring H with the Wall member wrapped about the supporting ring. The resilient clamping ring groove l8 down over the large end of the supporting ring and the upper margin of the wall memher is wrapped thereabout and held by the hands until ring I! snaps into the groove l9 in the lower end of the supporting ring, in which posi tion the ring 11 overlies the small ends of all the pockets, thereby sealing each pocket from the manifold and from the other pockets so that should puncture of one of the pockets take place the other pockets will remain inflated.
If desired, the supporting ring l6 may be provided with openings 20 for receiving feathers or other suitable ornaments. Also the sloping margins at the entrance to the tent may be formed with fringe 2|, 22 therealong for ornamental purposes. Apertured tabs 23 may be provided at the lower margin of the wall member whereby stakes may be driven through the apertures 24 to prevent overturning of the structure by wind. These tabs may be constructed of the sheet material of the wall member or may be made separately and cemented, seamed or otherwise secured thereto.
While a tent of conical shape has been shown in the drawings, features of the invention will be found useful also in connection with walled structures of cylindrical and other shapes.
Variations may be made without departing from the scope of the invention as it is defined by the following claims.
