A sunshade device and management system for mitigating the effects of climate change and direct and prolonged exposure to the sun, the sunshade device including a reflective canopy attached to a collapsible web or frame structure. The sunshade device is positioned above the ground by a combination of lifting balloons and positioning machines for managing the elevation, shape and geolocation of the sunshade device. A sunshade management system controls the status of the sunshade device, and can collapse and ground the sunshade in the evening, or during rainy weather, or cloudy days, or when severe weather-related events, such as thunderstorms, tornados, hurricane, etc. are anticipated, and can relaunch the sunshade device when such conditions have passed.

A personal pop-up pod includes an interior chamber formed by a connection of several panels: a front panel, a rear panel, left and right side panels, and a top panel. The personal pop-up pod also includes first and second arm apertures formed in the rear panel, a window in one of the side panels, and a zipper arranged to open and close the window. A bottom edge of the front panel includes an elastic strip so that the bottom edge of the front panel may closely conform around a region of a patient when the patient's head is located in the interior chamber. As such, the personal pop-up pod defines a containment that allows a patient to undergo a medical examination or medical procedure while protecting one or both of the caregiver and the patient from contamination of each other.

Portable hunting blind including seat/chair for use in hunting or similar environment including side panels and hinge brackets having support arms mounted to side panels; seat mounted to side panels, the seat together with side panels and hinge brackets having support arms form a chair-like structure; skirt put around side panels to conceal hunter sitting on seat; and bonnets and blind top. Blind top conceals hunter while allowing hunter to see what is going on around him. To hunt or to come out of portable hunting blind, hunter stands up throwing back bonnets and hitting the skirt with his knee, thereby detaching skirt. Portable hunting blind is folded by folding side panels along with skirt with help of hinge brackets and by throwing back bonnets to retracted state for easy transport.

A stowable and deployable shelter may include a frame structure with a first support arch pivotably attached to a base at a pair of pivot points, and a second support arch pivotably attached to the first support arch via a pair of slidable hinges. The slidable hinges are positioned to translate along the first support arch toward and away from the pair of pivot points. In some embodiments, at least one of the slidable hinges includes a locking mechanism for releasably locking the at least one slidable hinge at a selected location along the first support arch. In some embodiments, the hinges may be fixed instead of being slidable. The support arches support a fabric shell to form an interior of the shelter. The base may include a sled container having runners for sliding through snow or across terrain.

A foldable hunting blind uses a hub assembly to easily expand into its final configuration with side supports used to stabilize the blind. Further, the foldable hunting blind includes apertures in each wall configured to hold and direct firearm muzzles away from hunters within the blind and a door through the front wall allowing a dog to easily enter and exit the blind.

The invention relates to a hunting blind having a front blind and a rear blind where the front blind may be placed in a collapsed or erect position and when in an erect position, the front blind is laterally spaced from the rear blind and the front blind has a height that is less than the height of the rear blind. The invention may also include a side shooting widow that is defined in the side of the rear blind and may also include a foot rest.

A tent system includes a base system, a canopy, and one or more interconnecting members. The base system includes a first base member configured to mount to a vehicle, a second base member, and a hinge pivotally attaching the first base member to the second base member. The canopy includes a flexible membrane having a membrane edge and a canopy fastener coupled to at least a portion of the membrane edge and configured to mate with an interconnecting member fastener. The one or more interconnecting members include an interconnecting member body defining a first longitudinal edge and a second longitudinal edge, an attachment member, and the interconnecting member fastener attached to the interconnecting member body along the second longitudinal edge and configured to mate with a plurality of different canopy fasteners.

The portable barrier further has a cover assembly including (i) a plurality of arms that are movable with respect to each other, the plurality of arms include a first lateral arm and a second lateral arm, and (ii) a covering connected to the first lateral arm and the second lateral arm. In addition, the portable barrier has a first side screen connected to the first lateral arm and the first lateral leg, the first side screen defining a side opening. The portable barrier further has a first side opening cover.

Mesh material is presented for a hunting blind with a camouflage pattern printed on a first side and a second side with a color coating. The mesh material is partially transmissive such that a portion of incident radiation from an exterior of the hunting blind is reflected back into the exterior, a portion of incident radiation from an interior of the hunting blind is transmitted through the mesh material to the exterior and an intensity ratio of the reflected portion to the transmitted portion during daylight conditions is above a threshold value such that the exterior of the hunting blind is visible from the interior and the interior of the hunting blind is not visible from an exterior of the hunting blind. A hunting blind is also provided that includes a frame including frame members and panels of the mesh material attached to the frame members.
