Brief Patent Description - Full Patent Description - Patent Application Claims FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0001] The present invention refers to a canopy or tent for camping for use in camping in the mountains, for the beach, and in larger different sizes for different working activities (mining field hospital, military etc.). BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] In the field of canopies and tents for camping, we recognize rigid structures such as those of wooden poles tightened with cord, and fastened to the ground with stakes, continuing with other more modern tents with fiber glass rods, that are flexible and that are joined one to the other to form arches that give shape to the plasticized covers which are found commercially in various forms and sizes, this being the type that is most common. There are also tents with structures of steel wire and light canvas structure. DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [0003] The technical problem with canopies and tents for camping described above refers to the difficulty in setting up, and taking or breaking them down. The majority of tents come with separate canvas or canopy separate from the rigid parts (stakes, fiber glass rods, cords, etc.) making it a difficult task for people that are not skilled in the art, and even for those skilled, taking an average of 10 to 15 minutes to set up the tent, depending on the type and size of the tent (see attached figures and photographs). [0004] The present invention solves this technical problem and combines in one compact package all of the elements making a complete canopy or tent for camping, by joining the different elements of the structure which at the same time is joined to the flexible cover (canvas, fabric, plasticized, etc.). [0005] Photograph 8 taking and average of 2 minutes for setting up, depending on the size. It involves three or more strips of (fiber glass or other similar material). For purposes of this embodiment, there should be five strips joined at each end. [0006] FIG. (2) [0007] By elements formed from aluminum or other light material whose special design permits a cord to join both ends. [0008] FIG. (2) [0009] Upon pulling by the user, with a pedal which is found in one extreme, the ends are brought close to each other, forming a dome-like structure. [0010] FIG. (3) [0011] Flexing the rods of the semi-flexible structure, causing the formation of symmetrical arranged arches in response to the position of the canvas. [0012] FIG. (3) and Photograph (8) [0013] As a dome, the two arches at the extremes should always be opened in contact with the ground in order to give form to the part which will be the floor of the tent. [0014] FIG. (3) [0015] The cover, as well as the window, the door and the floor of (canvas or plasticized fabric, etc.) are fixed to the structure and are assembled at the same time as these photographs (photographs 6 and 7), in the same way, in order to fold the tent, the pedal at one end is pressed with the foot of the user, and the central cord is loosened. [0016] FIG. (4) and Photograph (6) [0017] Upon loosening this cord, the arches of the structure will slacken, and will assume its original straight form. Photograph (5). [0018] FIG. (2) and contrary to its unfolding, for the folding the structure is flexed both at the central and intermediate portions through the employment of special hinges. [0019] FIG. (1) the length of the strips has been reduced to a quarter of the original size thereof. Photograph (2), this fold is accomplished with the canvas floor, and the general components of the tent, into a single package, this package already folded is placed in its carrying case for transporting. [0020] Additionally, it is possible to secure the tent to the ground using stakes if is necessary due to the wind. [0021] The tents can be manufactured in all sizes in accordance with the need.
