Abstract

The present invention relates to a tent pole, and each of a first pole and a second pole forming a tent pole according to an aspect of the present invention includes a main pipe, an expanded pipe portion having an increased internal diameter from one end of the main pipe, an insert connector which is insertion-coupled to the other end of the main pipe and includes one portion exposed at an outside of the main pipe, the other end of the main pipe of the second pole is inserted into the expanded pipe portion of the first pole, and the insert connector of the second pole passes through the expanded pipe portion and is inserted into the main pipe of the first pole at a predetermined depth.

Claims (12)

1. A tent pole comprising:

a first pole and a second pole,

wherein each of the first and second poles includes: a main pipe, and an expanded pipe portion at one end of the main pipe, the expanded pipe portion having an increased internal diameter from the main pipe,

wherein the second pole includes an insert connector inserted in the other end of the main pipe from the expanded portion of the second pole, the insert connector including an insert portion inserted inside the main pipe of the second pole and an exposed portion outside of the main pipe of the second pole,

wherein the other end of the main pipe of the second pole is inserted into the expanded pipe portion of the first pole, and the exposed portion of the insert connector of the second pole is inserted inside the first pole through the expanded pipe portion of the first pole into the main pipe of the first pole to a predetermined depth.

2. The tent pole of claim 1 , further comprising an inclined portion which is provided between the main pipe and the expanded pipe portion and has an internal diameter gradually increased from one end of the main pipe,

wherein the insertion of the main pipe of the second pole is restricted due to the inclined portion of the first pole.

3. The tent pole of claim 1 , wherein a length of the inserted portion is greater than that of the expanded pipe portion.

4. The tent pole of claim 1 , wherein a length of the inserted portion is greater than that of the exposed portion.

5. The tent pole of claim 1 , wherein the insert connector is bond-coupled or forcibly press-fitted to the main pipe.

6. The tent pole of claim 1 , wherein the main pipe has a predetermined external diameter and a predetermined internal diameter.

7. The tent pole of claim 1 , wherein a thickness of the insert connector is greater than that of the main pipe.
