A panel is disposed within the interior volume of the base, wherein the panel includes a heating and cooling element that is operably connected to a power source and a thermostat. The thermostat selectively actuates the heating and cooling element, such that an internal temperature of the tent can be set by a user.

A tarpaulin system includes a first panel and a second panel. The tarpaulin system includes a bonded ridgeline coupling the first panel and the second panel. The tarpaulin system includes a plurality of pull-outs located in an upper region of both the first panel and the second panel, the pull-outs include a ridge line support extending along both the first panel and the second panel.

A foldable tent rack includes a first support stand including a first connecting base, two first stand poles, and two second stand poles; and a second support stand including a third stand pole, a second connecting base, and the second stand pole. Each first stand pole is rotatably connected to the first connecting base. Each first stand pole is rotatably connected to one second stand pole to form a scissor-type structure. First ends of the second and third stand poles are rotatably connected by the second connecting base. The second and third stand poles are rotatable. The third stand pole is rotatably connected to a fourth stand pole to form a scissor-type structure. In the unfolded position, arch shapes are formed and the poles are separated.

A mosquito repellent and antibacterial tent includes a tent body, a first support bar and a second support bar. The tent body is formed by a base fabric entirely provided with a mosquito repellent agent and a waterproofing agent. An adhesive coating layer is provided on the base cloth. The tent body includes a plurality of first positioning parts. A side surface of the tent body has at least one opening. The first support bar and the second support bar are connected to the plurality of first positioning parts so as to be crossed to support the tent body. Thus, the mosquito repellent and antibacterial tent achieves mosquito repellent and antibacterial effects as well as being waterproof and sturdy.

Disclosed are tents/tent frames with extended tops, and connectors facilitating construction of tents/tent frames with extended tops. A connector includes first and second side walls spaced apart in a first direction to form a groove along a second direction for receiving an upper pole. It also includes first upper and lower lugs spaced apart in a third direction to form a first slot for receiving a first side pole, and second upper and lower lugs spaced apart in the third direction to form a second slot for receiving a second side pole. The upper pole is rotatable in a plane limited by the first and second side walls. The first or second side pole is rotatable in a plane limited by the first or second upper and lower lugs.

A foldable tent includes a tent cloth, a plurality of support frame poles to support the tent cloth, and a tent top supporting device. The tent top supporting device includes a cover, a plurality of connection sleeves, and a plurality of inwardly concave recesses. The plurality of inwardly concave recesses is disposed at a peripheral side of the cover. Each recess includes a first side wall and a second side wall disposed on two sides of the recess, and an inner side wall adjacent a center of the cover. Each respective connection sleeve is flippably or rotatably disposed in a corresponding recess, and has one end connected to an end of a corresponding support frame pole. When the foldable tent is unfolded, a side wall of the other end of the corresponding connection sleeve comes into contact and matches with the inner side wall of the corresponding recess.

Disclosed are tent frames and tents. A tent frame includes first and second top poles, first and second connectors, and a locking mechanism. Each of the first and second top poles has a first end portion and a second end portion. The first connector is fixedly coupled to the first end portion of the first top pole, and slidably coupled to and movable along the second pole. The second connector is fixedly coupled to the first end portion of the second top pole, and slidably coupled to and movable along the first top pole. The locking mechanism selectively restricts the first and second top poles from moving with respect to each other.

A tent apparatus and method of manufacture are described herein. The tent apparatus may comprise a tent body, a frame, and/or other components. The tent body may include a first portion configured to be substantially enclosed within the bed of the pickup truck in an as-used mode of the tent apparatus, and a second portion that extends from the first portion such that the second portion is exposed to an environment above a bed of a pickup truck in the as-used mode. The frame may be integrally coupled to the tent body, and configured to articulate between a closed position and an open position. The frame may comprise a central hub coupled to the tent body at a central coupling point; and support members that extend from the central hub to coupling points on the tent body to integrate the frame with the tent body.
