[0018] Referring now to FIG. 1, there is shown a front perspective view of an inflatable LED glow tent 100.

[0019] The inflatable LED glow tent 100 shows a colored light being emitted by a plurality of lights 110.

[0020] The plurality of lights 110 may be a plurality of light-emitting diodes or LEDs 112 that emit the colored light.

[0021] Referring now to FIG. 2, there is shown a front perspective view of an inflatable LED glow tent 100.

[0022] The LEDs 112 may emit a plurality of colored light.

[0023] Referring now to FIG. 3, there is shown a front perspective view of an inflatable LED glow tent 100.

[0024] The inflatable LED glow tent 100 may include a plurality of legs 120, an inner shell 130, and an outer shell 140.

[0025] The legs 120 may be inflatable and are expanded by an inflation source 122 such as a pump (not shown) or the like. The inflation source 122 and the lights 110, which may be the LED lights 112, may both be powered by an electrical plug 114. The legs 120 may have a white color or the like. The inner shell 130 may include an outer surface 132 and 6 of the legs 120. The outer shell 140 may also have a black color. The outer surface 132 of the inner shell 130 may be positioned underneath the outer shell 140 and the lights 110 may be disposed on the outer surface 132 of the inner shell 130 to allow the inner shell 130 to glow without seeing the lights 110. The outer shell 140 may be detachable to facilitate changing the lights 110 to change color and glow produced from the lights 110.

[0026] Referring now to FIG. 4, there is shown a bottom perspective view of an inflatable LED glow tent 100.

[0027] The inflatable LED glow tent 100 may show a bottom 126 of each of the 6 legs 120 and an inner surface of the outer shell 140.

[0036] The LED lights 112 may emit a plurality of red light, a plurality of blue light, a plurality of green light, a plurality of purple light, a plurality of pink light, a plurality of yellow light, or the like. The LED lights 112 may change its emitted light from a plurality of red light, a plurality of blue light, a plurality of green light, a plurality of purple light, a plurality of pink light, or a plurality of yellow light, in any sequence or pattern.

[0037] Referring now to FIG. 7, there is shown a front view of an inflatable LED glow tent 100 with a false front 170.

[0038] The false front 170 may be disposed between 2 of the 6 legs 120 and includes a pair of doors 174 and a plurality of windows 176 disposed on the pair of doors 174.

[0039] Referring now to FIG. 8, there is shown a front view of an inflatable LED glow tent 100 with a plurality of screening 180.

[0040] The screening 180 may include a zipper 182 or a piece of reusable tape 184 to fasten the screening 180 that is open and that is disposed between the 6 legs 120 to enclose the inflatable LED glow tent 100. The screening 180 may be a plurality of mesh material 186 or the like.

[0041] The inflatable LED glow tent 100 may include an inlet 190 that may receive inflatable air from the inflation source (FIGS. 3, 122) to inflate the inflatable LED glow tent 100. The inflation source 122 and the lights 110, which may be LED lights 112, may be powered by an electrical plug 114. The inflatable LED glow tent 100 may include an top overhang 195 protruding from the top of the inflatable LED glow tent 100 to provide additional shelter immediately outside of the inflatable LED glow tent 100.

[0042] Referring now to FIG. 9, there is shown an environmental perspective view of an inflatable LED glow tent 100.

[0044] It is therefore submitted that the instant invention has been shown and described in various embodiments. It is recognized, however, that departures may be made within the scope of the invention and that obvious modifications will occur to a person skilled in the art. With respect to the above description then, it is to be realized that the optimum dimensional relationships for the parts of the invention, to include variations in size, materials, shape, form, function and manner of operation, assembly and use, are deemed readily apparent and obvious to one skilled in the art, and all equivalent relationships to those illustrated in the drawings and described in the specification are intended to be encompassed by the present invention.

[0045] Therefore, the foregoing is considered as illustrative only of the principles of the invention. Further, since numerous modifications and changes will readily occur to those skilled in the art, it is not desired to limit the invention to the exact construction and operation shown and described, and accordingly, all suitable modifications and equivalents may be resorted to, falling within the scope of the invention.
