Definitions

  • a substantially cone-shaped tent provided with means for rain diverting and a shelter therefore
  • the present invention relates to a substantially cone-shaped tent comprising a substantially cone-shaped tent cloth and an arrangement supporting this tent cloth to assume substantially the shape of a cone when the tent is pitched , in which the tent cloth is separable in at least a lower part for forming an opening to pass in and out through .
  • this type of tents are huts and tepees, and the present invention is not restricted to any size or particular design of such a substantially cone-shaped tent.
  • Tepees having an awning sewn to the tent cloth around the open ing for addressing th is problem are known . This means that said opening may be established without letting rain fall into the tent.
  • th is solution to the problem is adhered to some drawbacks. These tents are unnecessary heavy and by that not suited to be carried along over long distances. Furthermore, such tents are not suited to be pitched on locations where storms are likely to occur.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a tent of the type defined in the introduction being improved in at least some aspect with respect to such tents already known .
  • This object is according to the invention obtained by providing such a tent in which said tent is provided with means configured to enable rain diverting , releasable attachment of an additional cloth with respect to said substantially cone-shaped tent cloth in a region of said tent cloth above said opening for together with said tent cloth when said opening is present forming a cover over the ground substantially covered by the tent cone defined when said opening is closed .
  • the tent By the provision of said means it is optional to provide the tent with a cover ensuring that no rain will fall under a said opening when such an opening is established , which means that it may be ensured that no pool of water will be formed inside the tent in spite of having the open ing established when it is raining . It is at the same time possible to refrain from this possibility when the tent is to be carried over longer distances and a low weight is of highest priority. Furthermore, when the tent is to be pitched where a storm is likely to occur said additional cloth may be kept separated from the substantially cone-shaped tent cloth .
  • said means comprises a flap-like tent cloth member attachable with respect to the tent cloth in said region while with tent cloth portions there- under forming a pocked opening downwards, and said pocket is configured to receive portions of said additional cloth for attachment thereof in said pocket.
  • the arrangement of such a pocket and a corresponding design of said portions of said add itional cloth will make it easy to shift between a substantially cone-shaped tent and such a tent provided with a said cover without any major alterations of such a tent with respect to such a tent not having this possibility.
  • Said rain diverting attachment may also be easily and efficiently obtained by the arrangement of such a pocket.
  • said pocket is provided with a member configured to engage said portions of the additional cloth for attaching these portions with respect to the tent cloth .
  • Said engaging member may advantageously be a hook and loop fastener, such as Velcro tape, although other types of engagement means, such as a zipper, are possible.
  • the tent is of the type with a tent cloth made of wedge-like cloth portions joined and restricted by seams extending as generatrices of an imagined cone when the tent is pitched , and said pocket extends at least between those of said seams restricting wedge-like cloth portions with in which a said open ing is intended to be established .
  • the tent cloth is separable for forming a said opening within one said wedgelike cloth portion , and said pocket extends between the two seams restricting this wedge-like cloth portion . This will efficiently prevent rain from entering the tent when said opening is established , since rain may not flow in said wedge-like cloth portion in wh ich the opening is established below said pocket.
  • said add itional cloth belongs to an awn ing .
  • An awning designed to be rain diverting ly, releasably attached to the tent cloth constitutes a preferred way of obtaining a cover over the opening .
  • Said pocket may then be an awning connecting sleeve.
  • said attach- ment means comprises members configured to attach said awning to bear tightly against tent cloth portions surrounding a said opening for preventing mosquitoes to pass and enter the tent between said tent cloth and outer edges of the awn ing .
  • the invention also relates to a shelter configured to form a rainproof cover over the ground below a said opening in a tent ac- cording to the present invention , in which said shelter comprises said add itional cloth having portions configured to enable rain diverting , releasable attachment thereof with respect to said tent cloth .

  • the shelter formed by said additional cloth releasably attachable to the tent cloth in a rain diverting manner may have many other appearances than those two shown in the figure, and in the case of an awning this may have quite other shapes and also dimensions.
  • said means configured to enable rain diverting , releasable attachment may be a part separable from the rest of the tent and be provided as accessories together with an awning or other additional cloth to a substantially cone-shaped tent.
  • “Su bstantially cone-shaped tent” is to be interpreted to include all tents having a cone-shaped top section , but it may further below, closer to the ground , have some deviations from the cone-shape.
