A rainwater harvesting apparatus and system for an emergency shelter includes a platform defining an aperture. A threaded fastener is inserted through the aperture and is rotatable through the aperture. A planar panel assembly is fastened to the platform by the threaded fastener. The planar panel assembly is configured to move on the threaded fastener along a longitudinal axis of the threaded fastener as the threaded fastener is rotated through the aperture in the platform. A canopy is secured to the planar panel assembly, such that a segment of the canopy moves together with the planar panel assembly along the longitudinal axis of the threaded fastener as the planar panel assembly moves on the threaded fastener.

A quick assembly tent is provided which may be quickly assembled and disassembled without using any tools or requiring know-how by the user. The tent includes a dynamic platform that can rotate about an x-axis along a platform pivot from a closed position to an open position. The tent may be configured to be mounted on a vehicle. The tent may include a rain fly and an entry ladder. The tent may be configured to deploy simply by pivoting the dynamic platform from a closed to an open position. Methods for assembling a quick assembly tent are also provided.

A method of providing information on an interior of a shelter via a sail is presented. The method includes attaching a first fastener of the sail to a peak bracket of the shelter and attaching a second fastener of the sail to a leg bracket of the shelter. The method also includes attaching a third fastener of the sail to a first joint of the shelter and attaching a fourth fastener of the sail to a second joint of the shelter.

A sheeting clamp for a temporary structure includes a first clamping plate and a second clamping plate. The first clamping plate has a first channel parallel and a second channel. The second channel has a plurality of openings therein. The first plate also includes a first plurality of apertures proximal to the first channel and a second plurality of apertures proximal to the second channel. The second clamping plate has a first channel corresponding to the first channel of the first clamping plate, and a first plurality of apertures corresponding to the first plurality of apertures of the first clamping plate. At least one securing structure secures the first clamping plate and second clamping plate around a tubular structure around which a sheet is wrapped.

The present utility model provides a spherical tent frame, comprising a plurality of support rods and a plurality of connecting members, each of the connecting members is provided with at least two connectors and each of the connectors is axially embedded with a socket; wherein an annular groove is provided in a position of the inner wall of the socket close to the bottom, and a plurality of elastic pieces pointing to the center of the bottom of the socket are arranged along the upper edge of the annular groove; both ends of each of the support rods are inserted to the socket to form a hemispherical frame put up with triangles as a unit and the connecting member as a vertex. For the technical solution of this utility model, according to the principle of stability of the triangle, the support rods are set up to a hemispherical frame in a unit of triangle by various multi-head connecting members, with aesthetic appearance, and the frame structure is firm and not easily deformed, and with the elastic pieces in the socket, the support rod is not easily fallen off or loosen from the connecting member after stressed, which assists in enhancing the overall stability of the tent frame and is convenient and quick to install.

A device for attaching flexible, flat fabrics includes at least one keder rail having a keder channel in which a keder core attached to the fabric is inserted. The device includes at least one receiving profile in or on which the at least one keder rail is arranged relocatable at an adjustable height.

Disclosed is a ram assembly for use on the top of a tent where tops of supporting rods of the tent are connected to a top connecting seat. The ram assembly includes at least one ram connected to the top connecting seat and located between two adjacent supporting rods. The ram assembly supports an eave tarpaulin and allows the eave tarpaulin to unfold. The eave tarpaulin is located on the top of the tent and between at least the two adjacent supporting rods. An outer edge of the cave tarpaulin sleeves on the ram. The ram assembly is an elastic telescopic rod.

A sheeting clamp for a temporary structure includes a first clamping plate and a second clamping plate. The first clamping plate has a first channel parallel and a second channel. The second channel has a plurality of openings therein. The first plate also includes a first plurality of apertures proximal to the first channel and a second plurality of apertures proximal to the second channel. The second clamping plate has a first channel corresponding to the first channel of the first clamping plate, and a first plurality of apertures corresponding to the first plurality of apertures of the first clamping plate. At least one securing structure secures the first clamping plate and second clamping plate around a tubular structure around which a sheet is wrapped.
