Figure 1 is a perspective view showing a tent according to a first embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2 is a perspective view showing a connector that can be applied to the tent of Figure 1.

As shown in Figure 1, the tent 1 according to the first embodiment of the present invention is a plurality of support frames 10, tent fabric 12, ridge frame 20, eaves fabric 21 and a connector ( 30) is included.

The plurality of support frames 10 form an assembled tent frame when the tent 1 is assembled. The tent frame forms an inner space on the inside of the tent (1). For example, each of the plurality of support frames 10 has a curved shape, one end is connected to each other by a connector 30 and the other end is supported on the ground. Accordingly, a plurality of support frames 10 may be assembled with each other to form a tent frame. The tent 1 according to the embodiment shown in FIG. 1 is provided with four support frames 10 , and the four support frames 10 are connected to each other by a connector 30 to form a tent frame.

However, the shape of the tent frame is not limited by the shape shown in FIG. 1 , and may have various shapes that can be formed by assembling a plurality of support frames 10 . For example, each of the plurality of support frames 10 may have two ends that are bent in an arcuate shape to be supported on the ground when the tent 1 is assembled. That is, the shape of the support frame 10 is not limited by the above, and may be included in this embodiment as long as it has a shape capable of forming a tent frame that is assembled to form an inner space.

The support frame 10 may include a fixing part 11 for fixing each end on the ground. For example, the fixing unit 11 may be a ring-shaped member, and the tent 1 passes through the ring-shaped fixing unit 11 to provide a separate member capable of fixing the support frame 10 to the ground. may include more. In this case, the separate member may be a fixing nail passing through the fixing unit 11 , and the user may fix the supporting frame 10 to the ground by fixing the fixing nail to the ground. On the other hand, the configuration of the fixing part 11 is not limited by the above description, and any configuration capable of fixing the support frame 10 may be included in the present embodiment. In addition, the fixing unit 11 may be attached to the tent cloth 12 to be described later.

The tent fabric 12 may be supported by the tent frame and wrap the inner space of the tent frame. For example, the tent fabric 12 is coupled to the tent frame by a plurality of coupling members 13 and surrounds at least a portion of the inner space formed by the tent frame. The space surrounded by the tent cloth 12 may be utilized as the inner space of the tent 1, and the portion not surrounded by the tent cloth 12 may be an entrance communicating with the inside of the tent. In the embodiment shown in Fig. 1, the tent cloth 12 is fixed to the ground through the support frame 10 and the fixing part 11 so that the base surface of the tent 1 forms a hexagonal shape.

The coupling member 13 is a member capable of coupling the tent fabric 12 to the tent frame. For example, the coupling member 13 may be a clip or hook-shaped member that is attached to the outer surface of the tent fabric 12 and can be coupled to the support frame 10 . In addition, the coupling member 13 may be formed of a ring-shaped member. By passing the support frame 10 through the ring-shaped coupling member 13, the tent fabric 12 may be coupled to the tent frame. On the other hand, the shape of the coupling member 13 is not limited as described above, the coupling member 13 may have various shapes capable of coupling the tent fabric 12 to the tent frame.

The coupling member 13 is attached to the outer surface of the tent fabric 12, when the tent fabric 12 is coupled to the tent frame may be disposed at a position corresponding to the shape of the tent frame. For example, the plurality of coupling members 13 are to be attached on the tent fabric 12 so that when the tent fabric 12 is coupled to the tent frame, they are arranged at regular intervals along the longitudinal direction of each support frame 10 . can

On the other hand, in the embodiment shown in Figure 1 has been described the case in which the tent cloth 12 is coupled to the inner side of the tent frame, the coupling method of the tent cloth 12 is not limited by the above-described bar. For example, it is also possible if the tent cloth 12 is covered from the outside of the tent frame.

In the embodiment shown in Figure 1, the tent 1 is provided with a pair of ridge frames 20, each ridge frame 20 extends from the top of the tent frame in a direction parallel to the ground. More specifically, a pair of ridge frames 20 are each fixed to one end coupled to the top of the tent frame, and extend away from each other in different directions around each end.

The eaves cloth 21 is supported by the ridge frame 20 so as to be installed in a protruding form on the top of the tent frame. Accordingly, the eaves fabric 21 forms a space eaves between the tent fabric 12 and the eaves. The eaves cloth 21 may be coupled to the ridge frame 20 by a clip 22 attached to the outer surface of the eaves cloth 21 like the tent cloth 12 described above. Meanwhile, the clip 22 may have substantially the same configuration as the above-described coupling member 13 , and a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

In addition, the eaves cloth 21 may be attached to the outer surface of the tent cloth 12 in the form of a pocket. For example, the pocket form means that one side of the eaves fabric 21 is attached to the tent fabric 12, so that the other side of the eaves fabric 21 is opened toward the outside. Accordingly, the eaves 21 may form a space open to the outside between the tent cloth 12 and the eaves.

On the other hand, in the embodiment shown in Figure 1, the tent 1 is provided with a pair of ridge frames 20 facing each other, the eaves space that is opened in opposite directions to each other. However, the arrangement and number of the ridge frame 20 and the eaves space is not limited by the above-mentioned bar. For example, a plurality of ridge frames 20 may be coupled to the tent frame so as to be radially disposed along the perimeter of the top of the tent frame, and thus the eaves space may be formed in plurality along the perimeter of the top of the tent frame.

The connector 30 may be disposed on the top of the tent frame to detachably couple the support frames 10 so that the plurality of support frames 10 form the tent frame. At the same time, the connector 30 may detachably couple the ridge frames 20 to the tent frame.

For example, as shown in FIG. 2 , the connector 30 is disposed with a predetermined interval on the ring-shaped body part 31 and the side surfaces of the body part 31 so that the support frames 20 and the ridge frame One end of the (20) may include insertion holes (32) into which can be inserted. Accordingly, one end of the support frames 10 and the ridge frames 20 may be radially connected by the connector 30 .

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 2 , the connector 30 has six insertion holes 32 . At this time, the four support frames 10 are inserted into the insertion holes 32 opposite to each other to form a tent frame, and likewise, the two ridge frames 20 are inserted into the insertion holes 32 opposite to each other. and connected to the tent frame.

On the other hand, the number of insertion holes 32 of the connector 30 is not limited as described above, and may be freely deformed according to the number of the support frame 10 and the ridge frame 20 . In addition, the shape of the connector 30 is not limited by the above description, and the connector 30 may have a different shape depending on the shapes of the support frame 10 and the ridge frame 20 . For example, in order to connect the arch-shaped support frames 10 to each other to form a tent frame, and to connect the ridge frame 20 to the tent frame, the connector may include a body portion and a cylindrical portion. A plurality of through-holes through which each of the support frames 10 are penetrated and inserted are formed in the body portion in parallel in the vertical direction, and the tubular portion is formed on the upper portion of the body portion so that the ridge frame 20 may be inserted thereinto.

3 is a view showing a part of the tent of FIG. 1 as seen through perspective, FIG. 4 is an enlarged side view of a part of the tent of FIG. 3, and FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view showing part A-A of FIG.

3 to 5 , the tent 1 includes a connecting string 23 . The connecting string 23 is disposed on the inside of the eaves space, and one end is coupled to the bottom surface of the eaves cloth 21 and the other end is coupled to the outer surface of the tent cloth 12 . Accordingly, the connecting string 23 may connect the eaves cloth 21 and the tent cloth 12, and thus the connecting string 23 may tension the tent cloth 12 upward.

One end of the connecting string 23 may be coupled directly below the portion where the eaves fabric 21 is fixed to the ridge frame 20 . Specifically, the clip 22 for coupling with the ridge frame 20 is installed on the outer surface of the eaves fabric 21 as described above, and one end of the connection string 23 is the eaves of the region where the clip 22 is installed. It may be coupled to the inner surface of the fabric 21 .

One end of the connecting string 23 may be connected at a point spaced apart from the fixed end of the ridge frame 20 by a distance between 1/4 to 3/4 of the entire length of the ridge frame 20, preferably the connecting string ( 23 ) may be connected to the midpoint of the ridge frame 20 . Accordingly, it is possible to prevent excessive sagging of the ridge frame 20 compared to the case in which the connection string 23 is connected to the free end of the ridge frame 20 . Also, as the ridge frame 20 is prevented from sagging excessively, the ridge frame 20 can provide sufficient support to allow the connecting string 23 to tension the tent fabric 12 upward.

4 and 5, as the tension of the connecting string 23 is applied to the tent fabric 12, a portion of the tent fabric 12 forms a lift portion 12A that is lifted upward. . Accordingly, as the lift unit 12A is lifted, the inner space of the tent 1 may be wider.

On the other hand, when combining the tent fabric 12 to the tent frame, sagging of the tent fabric 12 may occur in a portion not coupled to the tent frame. However, in this embodiment, by attaching the connecting string 23 to the tent fabric 12, it is possible to pull the tent fabric 12 upward. Accordingly, the tent 1 of this embodiment can prevent sagging of the tent fabric 12 .

In addition, the tent cloth 12 may include a ventilation hole 14 through which external air is introduced and the air of the inner space of the tent 1 can be discharged. The ventilation hole 14 may be formed on the tent fabric 12 on the inside of the eaves space. The inflow of wind can be induced through the eaves space of which one side is open to the outside, and the outside air is introduced into the inner space of the tent 1 through the ventilation hole 14, so that the ventilation of the inner space of the tent 1 can be easily made. can In addition, since the eaves cloth 21 serves as the eaves, there is no risk of rainwater flowing into the inner space of the tent 1 through the ventilation holes 14 .

As described above, the eaves space may be formed on opposite sides of the tent 1 by a pair of ridge frames 20 extending in opposite directions with respect to each other. When the wind is introduced through the ventilation hole 14 formed on the inner side of the eaves space of the pair of eaves space, the wind can easily flow out through the ventilation holes 14 formed in the eaves space on the opposite side. Accordingly, ventilation of the inner space of the tent 1 can be made more easily.

In this embodiment, the case where a pair of ventilation holes 14 is formed on the opposite side of the tent 1 has been described as an example, but is not limited thereto. For example, the eaves space may be formed in plurality along the perimeter of the top of the tent frame, and the ventilation holes 14 may be formed in plurality along the perimeter of the top of the tent frame by being formed in each of the plurality of eaves space.

Referring to FIG. 6 , when the wind blows to the side of the tent 1, the wind hits the inclined portion of the side of the tent 1, and by the influence of this wind, the tent 1 moves downward toward the ground. will be powered by Accordingly, when a strong wind blows to the side of the tent 1, a problem in which the tent 1 sinks may occur.

However, in the tent 1 of this embodiment, when the wind blows to the side, the wind reaches the eaves space formed between the eaves cloth 21 and the tent cloth 12, and the wind is of the eaves cloth 21. It collides with the eaves cloth 21 from the inside. Accordingly, the eaves cloth 21 is subjected to a force upward. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 5 , the force of the wind acting upward on the eaves 21 may be offset with the force of the wind acting downward on the tent 1 . As such, the tent 1 of this embodiment can withstand it even when a strong wind blows to the side, and thus the wind resistance is enhanced as compared to a general tent.

7 is a side view of a tent according to a second embodiment of the present invention. Hereinafter, a tent according to a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. 7 . However, the same or equivalent reference numerals are attached to the same or equivalent configuration as the tent according to the first embodiment, and a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

Referring to FIG. 7 , the ridge frame 20 ′ extends from the top of the tent frame in an upwardly inclined direction with respect to the ground.

Since the ridge frame 20' is inclined upwardly than in the case of the tent 1 of the first embodiment, the tension acting on the tent cloth 12 is further increased. Accordingly, the degree to which the lift portion 12A of the tent fabric 12 is lifted also increases, so that the inner space of the tent 2 can be wider and at the same time, the sagging of the tent fabric 12 can be further prevented. can

In addition, the volume of the eaves space formed between the eaves cloth 21 and the tent cloth 12 may increase than in the case of the tent 1 of the first embodiment, and the portion open toward the outside in the eaves space is more can be widened Therefore, since the inflow of external air through the eaves space can be made easier, ventilation of the inner space of the tent 2 can be made more easily.

Hereinafter, a tent according to a third embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. 8 . However, the same or equivalent reference numerals are attached to the same or equivalent configuration as the tent according to the first embodiment, and a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

Referring to Figure 8, the base surface of the tent 3 forms a rectangular shape. Even when the base surface of the tent 3 has a rectangular shape, a lift portion 12A may be formed on the tent cloth 12 . Accordingly, as the lift unit 12A is lifted, the inner space of the tent 3 may be wider.

Also, as in the above-described embodiments, since the connecting string 23 can be connected in the middle of the ridge frame 20, the ridge frame 20 is the tent 3 rather than an imaginary line connecting the edges of the tent 3 to each other. It may be extended by protruding outward. Accordingly, the volume of the eaves space formed between the eaves cloth 21 and the tent cloth 12 can be increased, and accordingly, the inflow of external air through the eaves space can be further facilitated.

On the other hand, in the embodiment shown in Figs. 1 to 8, the tent frame has four support frames 10 connected to each other in a radial shape by a connector 30, but is not limited thereto. For example, the tent frame may include a roof frame extending in a horizontal direction, and a leg frame having one end coupled to at least one end of the roof frame and the other end fixed to the ground, and the ridge frame may be connected to the roof frame. That is, the tent frame may be included in this embodiment if a plurality of support frames can be assembled with each other to form an internal space.

In addition, the base surface of the tent of the present embodiments may have various shapes. As described above, it may have a rectangular or hexagonal base surface, and according to the assembly method of the support frame, a tent frame having a triangular shape, a pentagonal shape or a polygonal shape base surface may be formed.
