Abstract

A semi-automatic vehicle roof tent, comprising a base, tent frame rods, a tarpaulin fitted on the tent frame rods and the base, and driving mechanisms The tent frame rods comprise at least two U-shaped support rods, two free ends of each U-shaped support rod are respectively pin jointed to two ends of one side of the base, the driving mechanisms are respectively arranged on two lengthwise frames of the base, the driving mechanisms are telescopic structures, one end of each telescopic structure is pin jointed on a frame of the base, the other end is pin jointed on the outermost U-shaped support rod of the tent frame rods with respect to the base, and each U-shaped support rod is fixed together with the tarpaulin. The vehicle roof tent is simple in structure, convenient to operate, and easy to unfold and fold.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A semi-automatic vehicle roof tent, comprising a base, a tent frame rod, a tarpaulin fitted on the tent frame rod and the base, and a driving mechanism; characterized in that: the tent frame rod comprises at least two U-shaped support rods, two free ends of each of the U-shaped support rods are pivotally connected to two ends of one side of the base, two lengthwise side frames of the base, relative to the two free ends of each of the U-shaped support rods, are each provided with the driving mechanism, the driving mechanism is a telescopic structure, having one end pivoted to a corresponding one of the side frames of the base and another end pivoted to the outermost one of the U-shaped support rods relative to the base, and each of the U-shaped support rods is connected with the tarpaulin. 
     
     
         2 . The semi-automatic vehicle roof tent as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein each of the U-shaped support rods includes a transverse rod and two upright rods, the transverse rod corresponds to a width of the base, the two upright rods correspond to a length of the base, and the other end of the driving mechanism is pivoted to a lower portion of a corresponding one of the two upright rods of the outermost U-shaped support rod relative to the base. 
     
     
         3 . The semi-automatic vehicle roof tent as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the driving mechanism is a gas spring, a pneumatic cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder, or an elastic telescopic structure. 
     
     
         4 . A semi-automatic vehicle roof tent, comprising a base, a tent frame rod, a tarpaulin fitted on the tent frame rod and the base, and a driving mechanism; characterized in that: the tent frame rod comprises at least two U-shaped support rods, two free ends of each of the U-shaped support rods are pivotally connected to two ends of one side of the base, each of the U-shaped support rods is pivotally connected with the driving mechanism having a telescopic structure, one end of the driving mechanism is pivotally connected to a side frame of the base, and an outer edge of the tarpaulin is fixed to the base and the outermost one of the U-shaped support rods relative to the base. 
     
     
         5 . The semi-automatic vehicle roof tent as claimed in  claim 4 , wherein each of the U-shaped support rods includes a transverse rod and two upright rods, the transverse rod corresponds to a width of the base, and the two upright rods correspond to a length of the base. 
     
     
         6 . The semi-automatic vehicle roof tent as claimed in  claim 4 , wherein the driving mechanism is a gas spring, a pneumatic cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder, or an elastic telescopic structure. 
     
     
         7 . A semi-automatic vehicle roof tent, comprising a base, a tent frame rod, and a tarpaulin fitted on the tent frame rod and the base; characterized in that: the tent frame rod comprises at least three U-shaped support rods, two free ends of each of the U-shaped support rods are pivotally connected to two ends of one side of the base, the second one of the U-shaped support rods, counted from bottom to top relative to the base, is pivotally connected with a first driving mechanism having a telescopic structure connected to the base, a second driving mechanism having a telescopic structure is pivotally connected between the second one of the U-shaped support rods and the outermost one of the U-shaped support rods, and the tarpaulin is fixed to the base, the first one of the U-shaped support rods, and the outermost one of U-shaped support rods. 
     
     
         8 . The semi-automatic vehicle roof tent as claimed in  claim 7 , wherein each of the U-shaped support rods includes a transverse rod and two upright rods, the transverse rod corresponds to a width of the base, and the two upright rods correspond to a length of the base. 
     
     
         9 . The semi-automatic vehicle roof tent as claimed in  claim 7 , wherein each of the first driving mechanism and the second driving mechanism is a gas spring, a pneumatic cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder, or an elastic telescopic structure.
