An adjustable tent structure for use with and incorporation into the cargo bay sections of a range of vehicles or pickup trucks is disclosed. The tent structure elements include a plurality of flexible poles that, when assembled, form the tent skeletal structure; a tent cover section that is attached to the plurality of flexible poles and forms the tent structure. The adjustable entryway configuration of the tent structure allows for use within a wide variety of vehicle cargo bay sizes. Accordingly, the tent structure may be used in, and fit in smaller truck cargo bay, as well as a larger vehicle cargo bay, where the vehicle cargo bay has different lengths and/or widths. The tent structure has a plurality of tie-downs that may be attached, for stability of the tent structure, to the vehicle cargo bay, other vehicle structure, and/or to the ground surrounding the vehicle.

A camping tent heating assembly for keeping campers warm in a camping tent includes a camping tent that has a floor. A heating pad is positionable beneath the floor of the camping tent such that the heating pad is in thermal communication with the floor. The heating pad heats the floor when the heating pad is turned on to warm campers that are sleeping in the camping tent. A connection box is coupled to the heating pad and the connection box is in electrical communication with the heating pad. A control unit is in electrical communication with the connection box for turning the heating pad on and off. The control unit has a heat adjustment control to adjust a temperature of the heating pad between a minimum temperature and a maximum temperature.

The invention provides a building assembly comprising a subterranean cellar defining a space to be formed under the ground, the cellar having a ceiling including a first opening defining an access region for a staircase to connect the ground of the subterranean cellar, when in situ, with the surface of the ground above the cellar; and a heat control device having a heat transfer mechanism to provide heat from the cellar to a region on the ground above the cellar.

A heat-reflection tent has a body and a supporting member. The body has a covering cloth having two covering sheets and a zipper assembly. The zipper assembly is mounted on the covering cloth and has a front zipper and two bottom zippers. The front zipper is located between the two covering sheets. The two bottom zippers are respectively disposed below the two covering sheets. The supporting member is mounted on the body and is used to support the body for keeping a shape of the body. An opened range of the two covering sheets is increased by the bottom zippers for allowing a user to enter the body easily.

A transportable shelter includes a frame, an inner liner, and an outer liner. A plurality of interconnecting members of the frame are connected to create a fixed structural element, at least one end structural element, and a plurality of purlin portions. The purlin portions attach the fixed structural element to a first end structural element. The fixed structural element has a first inner track and a first outer track, and the first end structural element has a second inner track and a second outer track. The inner liner attaches to the first and second inner tracks, and the outer panel attaches to the first and second outer tracks. A dead-air space exists between the inner liner and the outer panel when the frame is assembled and the inner liner and the outer panel are connected to both the fixed structural element and the first end structural element.
