Problems solved by technology

The ridge-shaped tent has a simple structure, many parts, and a relatively large internal space. It is suitable for long-term use, but the installation and disassembly are more complicated; The material strength requirements are high, and the cross-through method at the top is difficult to install and fix
These kinds of tents all have obvious disadvantages, which bring troubles to people's use.

Embodiment Construction

[0020] The present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0021] A tensegrity tent structure provided by the present invention includes two kinds of connectors, connecting rods, telescopic rods and connecting ropes; the tent support based on the tensegrity structure provided by the present invention is realized in this way: the structure is divided into upper and lower two End face, the upper and lower end faces of the structure are square, and four second connectors are distributed respectively. The four second connectors on the two end faces are respectively connected end-to-end by four first connecting ropes, and the squares of the upper and lower end faces are deflected by 45°; The upper ends of the four second connectors on the end face are connected to one end of the four connecting rods, the other ends of the connecting rods are connected to the lower ends of the four first connectors,...

Abstract

The present invention provides an expandable tent based on a tensegrity structure, which includes two kinds of connectors, connecting rods and rope members; There is a connection hole for connecting with the end of the connecting rod and the telescopic rod; one end of the second connector is provided with a connecting hole to connect with the connecting rod and the telescopic rod member, and the other end adopts a 'cross'-shaped structure for connecting with the rope member . Utilizing the self-balancing characteristics of the tensegrity structure, the technical problem of unstable tent structure in the prior art is solved. The structure of the tent frame is simple, the number of components is small, and the structure is easy to build; and due to the self-balancing characteristics of the tensegrity structure, the joints of the components do not need additional bolts and screws for fixing, and the entire structure can be supported by the connection between the cables and rods. stand up. And after the tent structure is built, the folding and unfolding of the entire tent structure can be realized by changing the length of the telescopic rod.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a foldable tent based on a tensioned integral structure, which belongs to the technical field of outdoor supporting devices. Background technique [0002] With the improvement of people's living standards, traveling is becoming more and more popular, and more people want to visit the great rivers and mountains of the motherland to enrich their knowledge. When traveling abroad, especially when visiting natural landscapes, camping in the wild has become a problem that people have to face. One of the items that must be prepared for camping is a tent. Tent is a kind of temporary place that is easy to carry, can shelter from wind, rain, heat preservation, and cold, which brings a lot of convenience to people's travel. [0003] However, the traditional tents on the market today have obvious shortcomings. According to the analysis, there are three different tent structures commonly used in the market, namely roof-shaped tents, trian...
