A tent is a shed on the ground for shelter from wind and rain, sunlight and temporary living. It is made of canvas and can be removed and transferred at any time. The tent is carried in the form of parts and assembled after arriving at the site. Therefore, various parts and tools are required. Only knowing the name and usage of each part and being familiar with the structure of the tent can we set up the tent quickly and conveniently.

Structural features of the tent:

Pillar: also known as pillar, standing vertically on the ground. There is a straight one or various types of connection with two or three. Some curved parts of tubular pillars need to be connected with wire. General material is fiberglass, general is 7 sections.

Classification of tents

3-season tent: it is usually light and used in the mild climate of spring, summer and autumn. Three season accounts usually perform well in the wind and rain, but the design features also determine that they are generally difficult to cope with excessive snowfall. If a three-season account can barely support 2 inches of snow on it, when the snow falls to 20 inches, you must be in trouble. There is another feature of the three season account. It has a certain ventilation design. In order to meet different needs, it will generally be designed into a double-layer tent, which is divided into internal and external accounts. The internal account has the internal account with full card screen and the internal account with half card screen. Some of the internal and external accounts can be used separately, so as to meet the different needs of spring, summer and autumn.

3 quarter accounts

4-season account: a stronger 4-season account usually has one or two more supporting rods, so that the supporting system can withstand stronger wind or thicker snow layer. In winter, the shape of the tent is usually designed as a round dome, so as to minimize the flat part of the top of the tent and prevent the accumulation of snow. Of course, these winter / Alpine accounts are also suitable for relatively mild climate conditions. It's just that the extra weight of their support rods makes them heavier than the three-season accounts.

4 quarter accounts

A convertible account is a four quarter account that can be adjusted to a three quarter account. The adjustment method is usually to remove one or two support rods from the tent support system, and provide detachable ventilation components in the design, which can be removed or opened in mild weather to enhance ventilation.

The simplest form is single account. Basically, this kind of account is just a piece of rain cloth with several vents supported by the account pole. In warmer weather, the zipper of the vents can be opened to enhance ventilation. Tent - term meaning Dome Tent: most of the four seasons tents use a round dome design. The dome avoids a flat surface on the top of the tent and is not easy to snow, and this design also provides better wind resistance and enough interior space. Barracks account: three quarters account adopts the design form of barracks account. In this form, the bottom surface of the account is rectangular, the account body is narrow and long. Barracks account used less support rods and fabrics, the whole wedge-shaped. However, its top surface is flat and easy to snow. Once it encounters strong snow, it is easy to cause the collapse of the tent.

Self supporting tent: dome type tent can support itself. This means that it can support itself without additional piles or bolts. You can easily lift and move such a tent, just like carrying a large inflatable balloon. You can also easily shake, shake and pat such a tent to shake off the dirt on it before unpacking
