A canopy shelter has a plurality of corner support forming legs that may be positioned on a support surface. Scissor assemblies interconnect adjacent ones of the corner supports and are each pivotally connected at one portion to the top ends of the respective corner supports and are each pivotally connected at another portion to slide brackets slideably mounted on each of the respective corner supports. Roof support members are pivotally connected to a respective slide bracket on a corner support. Thus, the framework may be collapsed in a stored state yet expanded to an expanded state by spreading the corner members apart from one another. This automatically raises the apex which may also include a center post structure. Latches are provided to retain the slide brackets in position to hold the framework in the expanded state. A flexible covering is centrally supported by the apex to form a canopy top, and cables may be provided between the top ends of the corner supports and the apex to further support the flexible covering. Side panels and a front panel having a doorway may be used to enclose a protected space. The corner supports may be formed by telescoping leg sections. Each roof support may be formed by a plurality of extendible sections that may be open and closed either by pivotally folding or by telescopic construction, and latches are provided to hold the roof sections open.

In a collapsible canopy shelter including an expandible framework structure having a plurality of legs interconnected by scissor assemblies wherein each scissor assembly has one portion pivotally connected to top ends of its associated legs and another portion pivotally connected to a slide bracket

In a collapsible canopy shelter including an expandible framework structure having a plurality of legs interconnected by scissor assemblies wherein each scissor assembly has one portion pivotally connected to top ends of its associated legs and another portion pivotally connected to a slide bracket on each of its associated legs whereby the scissor assemblies open and close and the slide brackets move toward and away from the top ends of the legs as the framework is expanded from a collapsed state to an expanded state and including a flexible covering extending across the framework to define a roof. Therefore, the improvement comprising a plurality of roof support members pivotally connected to one another at first ends thereof to form a central apex portion of said covering and pivotally connected at second ends thereof opposite said first ends to respective ones of said slide brackets whereby movement of the slide brackets toward the top ends of their respective legs operates to elevate said central apex portion.
