A net assembly for a vehicle, comprising an assembly of rod elements, each of which has a guide channel; a plurality of joint elements, each of which has at least one connection opening, wherein the rod elements are connected together via the joint elements; and at least one tensioning element which extends through the guide channels of at least some of the rod elements and the connection openings of at least some of the joint elements and can be tensioned in order to clamp the rod elements relative to the joint elements. In this manner, a net assembly is provided which can be used in a variable manner, the shape of which can be adapted in a flexible manner, and which can thus be used to withstand forces.

Tents are disclosed herein. The tent includes a tent frame that, when assembled, forms an assembled tent frame that is configured to support the tent on a support surface and define an inner space between the assembled tent frame and the support surface. The tent also includes at least one clearance pole that, when operatively coupled to the assembled tent frame, extends away from the inner space to define an outer space, and a clearance mechanism that is configured to operatively couple the at least one clearance pole to the assembled tent frame and orient the at least one clearance pole to project in an upward direction relative to the support surface. The clearance mechanism includes a connector that is configured to operatively couple the at least one clearance pole to the tent frame.

Tents are disclosed herein. A tent includes a plurality of support frames, each support frame being bent in a shape of an arch and having two ends configured to be fixed on a ground surface when the tent is assembled. Each support frame crosses over at least one other support frame when the tent is assembled. Each support frame is positioned such that the ends of the support frame are positioned on non-adjacent vertices of a polygonal base surface when the tent is assembled.

Embodiments described herein relate to a system which includes a first vertical support, a second vertical support parallel to the first vertical support, a third vertical support parallel to the first vertical support, and a fourth vertical support parallel to the first vertical support, a first, second, third, and fourth elevation couplers releasably attachable proximate an end of the corresponding vertical supports, a first, second, third, and fourth outer horizontal members releasably coupleable to extend between the elevation couplers perpendicular to the vertical supports, and first and second inner horizontal member extending between the outer horizontal members to be oriented substantially perpendicular to the vertical supports and overlap each other to form an elevated grid suitable for a game.

An automatic sunshade system mounted to a cabin-top of a vehicle automatically deploys from a stored and retracted orientation to a deployed orientation. The canopy is coupled to a plurality of support members that are wound about a hub and have stored energy when in retracted orientation. The support members unwind from the hub automatically and spread the canopy out over the vehicle. The support members may comprise a plurality of elongated portions that are coupled together by an elastic tether. The canopy may be retracted manual with a crank or by a motor that winds the support members around the hub.

The tent includes a tent frame that, when assembled, forms an assembled tent frame that is configured to support the tent on a support surface and define an inner space between the assembled tent frame and the support surface.

Disclosed are tents and tent support frames. A tent support frame includes a rotatable connector and tent support poles. The rotatable connector includes first and second connectors configured to be coupled in a vertical direction with one above another, and rotatable with respect to each other. The first connector includes a first through-hole in a horizontal direction, and the second connector includes a second through-hole in the horizontal direction. Tent support poles include a first tent support pole configured to pass through the first through-hole of the first connector, and a second tent support pole configured to pass through the second through-hole of the second connector.
