ABSTRACT:
A quick set-up tent is formed from a flexible cover structure which internally carries a collapsible support structure defined by pivotally interconnected, telescopable pole members which, in their retracted positions, may be pivoted inwardly against one another to form an axially foreshortened pole bundle about which the collapsed cover structure may be conveniently wrapped to orient the tent in a compact cylindrical storage and transport configuration. The cover structure is defined by a floor section to which stake loops are attached for securing the floor section to the ground in a relatively taut configuration, and a wall section formed by at least three mutually angulated wall portions intersecuring at side edge juncture areas along which the pole members are extendable. From its compact storage and transport orientation the tent may be rapidly and easily erected simply by expanding the cover structure, staking the floor section down, and moving the pole members to their extended positions in which they are releasably locked.
