Definitions
- the present invention relates to the technical field of tents for camping, comprising a tent body provided with a frame with which a tent fabric cooperates.
- the present invention relates more specifically to tents configured to rest on a ground or to be placed on the roof of a vehicle and comprising a roof configured to cooperate with the tent body.
- Such a roof also called a flysheet or over-roof, is traditionally arranged so as to at least partially cover the tent fabric in order to protect it, in particular from humidity and the sun's rays.
- Such a roof can be shaped so as to form one or more caps for the tent, in order to protect the user even more effectively from the sun or rain.
- tents such as that described in document US 4,709,718, provided with a roof of substantially rectangular shape and provided at its corners with connectors configured to cooperate with the tent body, for the connection of said roof to the tent body .
- This roof is provided with a ridge rod comprising a central pin configured to be inserted into a top ring joining the poles of the tent.
- This ridge rod can thus be placed in cooperation with the tent body, so as to extend in a longitudinal direction of the tent.
- the ridge rod then makes it possible to form two caps on either side of the tent.
- a disadvantage of this tent is that the ridge rod, extending over substantially the entire length of the tent, is particularly heavy and bulky. This rod does not allow satisfactory folding of the roof when not in use, so that the roof of the tent in this document is difficult to transport.
- roof of this document can also prove complex, especially for small people, to the extent that it is necessary to introduce a peg of the ridge rod into a ring at the top of the tent.
- Another disadvantage of the roof of this tent is that it does not allow the formation of caps extending laterally from the side walls of the tent. It also only allows two caps to be formed.
- An aim of the present invention is to propose a tent remedying the aforementioned drawbacks.
- the invention relates to a tent comprising a tent body comprising: a frame comprising at least a first arch portion; a tent fabric configured to cooperate with said frame so as to form an interior volume of the tent, said tent fabric defining at least a first canvas wall and a second canvas wall adjacent to the first canvas wall, the first and second canvas walls being separated by said first arch portion, the tent further comprising a roof cooperating with the tent body, the roof defining a first cap overhanging the first canvas wall and a second cap overhanging the second canvas wall , the roof further comprising at least a first spacer element having a first end part and a second end part opposite the first end part, said first spacer element further having a middle part configured to bear on said first arch portion so that said first spacer element extends transversely to said first arch portion, the first end portion of the first spacer element being configured to hold the first cap in front of the first canvas wall, at a distance from said first canvas wall, the second end portion of the first spacer element being configured to hold
- the frame of the tent advantageously comprises at least one first arch comprising said first arch portion. More preferably, said tent comprises a plurality of poles.
- each arch of the tent may comprise one or more arch portions, preferably at least two arch portions.
- a hoop can be made up of a single arch portion.
- the frame of the tent can be inflatable, so that it comprises one or more inflatable arch(s), said first arch portion then being inflatable.
- Said inflatable frame may also include stiffening elements making it possible to maintain the spacing between the inflatable arches.
- the frame of the tent can be rigid, so that it comprises one or more rigid pole(s), said first pole portion then being rigid, for example made of plastic material or fiberglass .
- the frame is mounted on a foldable base.
- This foldable base advantageously comprises a central plate and two side plates extending on either side of the central plate and being mounted in a pivoting manner relative to the central plate.
- the tent fabric is advantageously connected to the first arch portion.
- the tent fabric is advantageously connected to the poles of the tent.
- the first and second canvas walls formed by the tent fabric are two consecutive canvas walls. In a non-limiting manner, these first and second canvas walls can be side, front or even rear walls of the tent.

- the roof fabric is shaped so as to form said caps.
- the first spacer element belongs to the roof.
- said first spacing element is integrated into the roof.
- An interest is that said first spacing element can be kept connected to said roof when the roof is not put into cooperation with the tent body, particularly during storage. This helps reduce the risk of misplacing the first spacer.
- Another advantage is to avoid restrictive connection steps between the first spacing element and the roof when setting up the tent.
- the first spacer element is advantageously mounted to the roof in a removable manner.
- the first spacer element is preferably a slender element.

- the first spacer element 60 has a first end portion 60a and a second end portion 60b, opposite the first end portion 60a.
- the first spacing element 60 further comprises a middle portion 60c extending between said first and second end portions 60a, 60b.
- the roof 40 is provided with a first sheath 54 fixed to the roof at the level of the first connecting portion 43d of the edge 43 of the first cap 42.
- the roof 40 is further provided with a second sheath 56 fixed to the roof at the level of the first connecting portion 45c of the edge 45 of the second cap 44.
- the first and second sheaths 54,56 are spaced from each other by a distance substantially equal to the length of the first spacing element 60.
- the first and second sheaths 54,46 are configured to respectively receive the first and second end portions 60a, 60b of the first spacer element 60.
- the first spacer element 60 is thus removably connected to the roof 40 and s 'extends between the first connecting portion 43d of the edge 43 of the first cap 42 and the first connecting portion 45c of the edge 45 of the second cap 44.
- a tension line is formed on the roof 40 between the first and second end portions 60a, 60b of the first spacer element 60.
- the middle portion 60c of the first spacing element 60 bears on an exterior side of the first arch portion 22, so that said first spacing element extends transversely, and even substantially perpendicular to said first portion of hoop 22. Said first spacing element 60 rests on the first arch portion 22 without, however, being connected to it.
- the first end part 60a and the second end part 60b of the first spacer element 60 then extend on either side of the first arch portion 22.
- the first end part 60a of the first spacer element extends in front of the first canvas wall, at a distance from the first canvas wall 32 while the second end portion 60b of the first spacer element 60 extends in front of the second wall of canvas 34, at a distance from the second canvas wall.
- the first end portion 60a of the first spacing element 60 then maintains the first cap 42, and more precisely the first connecting portion 43d of the edge 43 of the first cap 42, in front of the first canvas wall 32, at a distance of said first canvas wall 32.
- the second end portion 60b of the first spacing element 60 holds the second cap 44, and more precisely the first connecting portion 45c of the edge 45 of the second cap 44, in front of the first wall of canvas 32, at a distance from said first canvas wall 32.
- the first spacing element 60 therefore makes it possible to deploy two caps, namely the first and second caps 42,44, overhanging two adjacent canvas walls, namely the first and second canvas walls 32,34.
- the first end part 60a and the second end part 60b of the first spacing element 60 extend outside of said base perimeter of the base.
- the second spacing element 62 is connected in a similar manner to the roof, and extends between the second connecting portion 43e of the edge 43 of the first cap 42 and the first connecting portion 47c of the edge 47 of the third cap 46.
- the second spacing element 62 is supported on the second arch portion 24. It maintains the first cap 42, and more precisely the second connecting portion 43e of the edge 43 of the first cap 42, in front of the first canvas wall 32, at a distance from said first canvas wall 32.
- the first and second spacing elements cooperate together in deployment of the first cap.
- the second spacing element 62 further maintains the third cap 46, and more precisely the first connecting portion 47c of the edge 47 of the third cap 46, in front of the third canvas wall 36, at a distance from said third canvas wall 36 .
- the first and second spacing elements 60,62 extend on either side of the tent.
- the second edge portion 43b of the first cap 42 extends between said first end portions 60a, 62a of the first and second spacing elements 60,62.
- the roof 40 further comprises a triangular portion 58 formed between said first spacing element 60, the first edge portion 43a of the edge 43 of the first cap 42 and the first edge portion 45c of the edge 45 of the second cap 44.
- This triangular portion 58 has a lower point 59 to which the first connector portion 70a of the first connector is fixed.
- said triangular portion is put under tension.
- the first edge portion 43a of the edge 43 of the first cap 42 and the first edge portion 45a of the edge 45 of the second cap 44 are placed in tension.
- the third spacing element 64 extends between the first connecting portion 49d of the edge 49 of the fourth cap 48 and the first connecting portion 51c of the edge 51 of the fifth cap 50.
- the third spacing element 64 bears on the third arch portion 26 so that it extends transversely to said third portion of hoop.
- the third spacing element 64 maintains the fourth cap 48, and more precisely the first connecting portion 49d of the edge 49 of the fourth cap 48, in front of the fourth canvas wall 38, at a distance of said fourth canvas wall 38.
- the third spacing element 64 further maintains the fifth cap 50, and more precisely the first connecting portion 51c of the edge 51 of the fifth cap 50, in front of the second canvas wall 34, at a distance of said second canvas wall 34.
- the third spacing element 64 extends along the first edge portion 49a of the edge 49 of the fourth cap 48 as well as along the first edge portion 51a of the edge 51 of the fifth cap 50.
- the roof 40 is here devoid of a triangular portion extending from the third spacing element 64.
- the second edge portion 51b of the edge 51 of the fifth cap 50 has an end to which the first portion of connection member 74a is fixed. When the first portion of connection member 74a is placed in connection with the second portion of connection member 74b, the first and second edge portions 51a, 51b of the edge 51 of the fifth cap 50 are put in tension, thus putting the fifth cap in tension.
- the fourth spacing element 66 is connected in a similar manner to the roof 40 and is supported on the fourth arch portion 28 so as to maintain the fourth and sixth caps 48.52 at a distance from the fourth and third canvas walls 38.36 respectively.
- first and fourth caps 42,48 extend on either side of the tent body.
- second and third caps 44,46 extend on either side of the tent body.
- the fifth and sixth caps 50.52 also extend on either side of the tent body. These caps extend beyond the perimeter of the base.
