Abstract
A collapsible tent frame includes an upper connecting holder, a guiding rod, a plurality of poles, a plurality of first support rods, a middle connecting holder, a plurality of second support rods, and a lower connecting holder. Each of the plurality of first support rods has an inner end articulated to the middle connecting holder and an outer end articulated to an inner end of one of the plurality of poles. The first support rods provide an outward support action between the middle connecting holder and the poles to ensure that the tent won't be collapsed automatically after the tent is expanded, without the need for the fasteners of a traditional tent frame. The present invention is simple in structure and operation, and provides a better rigidity because there are four second support rods.
