A method for raising, by an individual, a unitized foldable tent framework which has a perimetric interconnection of roof members that is formed to permit expansion and contraction of separation between lower ends of adjacent roof members, the perimetric interconnection being concentrically enclosed
A method for raising, by an individual, a unitized foldable tent framework which has a perimetric interconnection of roof members that is formed to permit expansion and contraction of separation between lower ends of adjacent roof members, the perimetric interconnection being concentrically enclosed by sectioned tubular eave members. The raising is accomplished by placing the folded tent frame in a vertical position; extending outwards the lower ends of wall members; raising the pivotally connected upper ends of the roof members, past a location where the roof members are coplanar, to a proximate raised position; temporarily retaining the tent framework in that position by the perimetric interconnection; connecting the sectioned eave members between adjacent roof members, and, finally, locking the pivotal connection between roof, wall, and eave members. The pivotal connection of the roof, wall, and eave members may be provided by a hub member, attached to the roof, wall, and eave members, and a hub lock member which, by rotation relative to the hub member, locks the roof, wall, and eave members into a fixed position, so that the locking step may be accomplished by rotating the hub lock member relative to the hub member. Where the roof, wall, and eave members are resilient, an additional step prior to locking may include applying external inward pressure on the hub member until the roof, wall, and eave members are substantially coplanar.

A method for raising a foldable tent framework, comprising the following steps: a. placing in a vertical position a foldable tent framework, which includes: (1) a plurality of elongated roof members, each elongated roof member having an upper end and a lower end; (2) a plurality of elongated wall members, each elongated wall member having an upper end and a lower end; (3) means for pivotally connecting together the upper ends of the plurality of elongated roof members; (4) means of perimetric interconnection of said plurality of connected elongated roof members, said means of perimetric interconnection including a continuous line which forms a loop having an adjustable perimetric length; and (5) means for pivotally connecting the lower end of each elongated roof member to the upper end of at least one elongated wall member; b. extending the lower ends of the elongated wall members outward to substantially their final position; c. raising the upper ends of the plurality of elongated roof members, through a location where said elongated roof members are substantially coplanar, to a location which proximates a raised position of said tent framework; and d. reducing said adjustable perimetric length of said loop of continuous line in said raised position so as to preclude outward movement of said lower ends of said plurality of elongated roof members, thereby retaining said tent framework in said raised position.
