| 20110079261 | Joint assembly - A joint assembly is mounted between adjacent supports of a frame of a tent and has a female joint, a male joint and a slide. The male joint covers on the female joint. The slide is mounted slidably between the joints and abuts a resilient member. The female joint has a partition with at least one through hole to allow a protrusion of the slide to selectively pass through. When the slide moves to mount the protrusion in the through hole, the joints are held from rotating relative to each other. When the slide moves to completely retract between the joints, the protrusion leaves the through hole to allow the joints to rotate relative to each other. Therefore, when the frame is folded, the slide is completely retracted to avoid damage other components. | 04-07-2011 |
