A multi-purpose shelter includes a covering fabric, a first rod member, a plurality of loop straps, a plurality of cords and at least a weight member. The covering fabric has a plurality of side edges, and a first pocket extending along a transverse direction thereof. The first rod member has a forward end, a backward end, and a main portion extending between the forward end and the backward end. The main portion passes through the first pocket of the covering fabric, and is folded to form a curved contour between the forward end and the backward end to be erected on a support surface. Each cord connects the covering fabric to a support surface in a stretched manner. The weight member is detachably attached on one of the forward end and the backward end of the first rod member for providing a secure support to the multi-purpose shelter.

A deployable tent comprising a tent cloth, and a skeleton comprising at least one first arch provided with a first deformable elongate element and a second deformable elongate element that are arranged end-to-end by their first ends, wherein the skeleton has a folded position and a deployed position, and wherein, in the deployed position, the distance between the second ends of the first and second deformable elongate elements of the first arch is less than the sum of the lengths of the first and second deformable elongate elements, whereby the deformation in bending of the first and second deformable elongate elements of the first arch increases and then decreases during the passage between the deployed position and the folded position.

A multi-purpose shelter for covering a surface including a first rod member having a forward end and a backward end, the forward end and the backward end concavely extending at an acute angle with the surface; a covering having a plurality of corners, a plurality of side edge, and a middle pocket transversely formed across the covering; a plurality of loop straps spacedly formed along the side edges of the covering and formed at the plurality of corners; the plurality of cords, each of the cords having a first end and a second end, each of the first end coupled with the loop strap formed at one of the plurality of corners and the second end being affixed on the surface at an angle respect to the surface; wherein the first rod member is loosely received within the middle pocket.

A shelter or tent having at least a pair of outer cover panels each upwardly extending from an outer cover panel lower edge to an outer cover ridgeline and a vestibule panel coupled to the outer cover panels which slidably couples to a tensioned guyline to travel between a vestibule closed condition and a vestibule open condition.

A sun shelter that is a portable system to block the direct rays of the sun, providing a shaded area beneath a fabric canopy. The wind enters through a large opening and exits through smaller vents, creating increased air pressure thereby inflating the canopy. The canopy includes pockets that are weighed down to prevent movement of the shelter. The opening is secured with anchored guy lines. To decrease transportation weight, the pockets and anchors are filled with local materials.

This invention falls within the domain of beach sunshade technology and introduces a beach sunshade. It comprises a sunshade cover, in which crossbar is internally mounted, with vertical poles fixed at both ends of the crossbar. This particular type of beach sunshade utilizes a combination of a crossbar, vertical poles, fasteners, connecting ropes, sandbags, connecting rods, securing rings, and insertion rods to ensure a more stable setup when placed on the beach. First, the internally mounted crossbar and vertical poles provide essential support, enabling the sunshade cover to maintain its width effectively. Then, the external surface of the crossbar allows for the secure attachment of a connecting rod. The connecting rod, in turn, firmly hold the securing ring on their external surfaces.

A tent securing system using a rigid base and relatively shorts stakes for securing the guylines of tents and other erectables to a ground surface, and particularly a ground surface comprising turf. The tent securing system typically comprises a rigid base having a plurality of holes spaced therethrough in a predetermined array or pattern, a plurality of relatively short auger stakes that pass through the holes and are secured into the ground, and a connector for coupling the rigid base to the guyline of the tent. The auger stakes are typically a fraction of the length of a prior art stake, but the tent securing system provides comparable and even superior pull-out force.

A combination tent includes a tent frame standing upright on the ground. An outer tent fabric is spread out and mounted on the tent frame. The outer tent fabric encloses an arched space having front and rear ends that are open. An outer tent door fabric is disposed on a first side of the outer tent fabric and is openable and closeable. An inner tent is disposed in the arched space and is connected to the first side of the outer tent fabric. An inner tent door fabric is disposed on a side of the inner tent, is aligned with the outer tent door fabric, and is openable and closeable. The arched space includes an open passage defined between another side of the inner tent and a second side of the outer tent fabric. The open passage extends from the front end to the rear end of the arched space.
