Protective cover for frame tent fittings
The tent frame fitting cover is a durable, self-restraining structure serving to smooth the harsh upper surfaces of the tent frame joint and protect the fabric of the tent canopy. After snapping on, the cover holds itself in place by friction fit on the tent frame and encapsulates hardware, including pins and bails, and tubing. The cover includes a central body and a plurality of projections. The projections extend in various directions from the tent fitting, tracking with the tent frame member components. Many cover embodiments are provided to accommodate many tent junction variations. By heat pressing, the projections are initially formed into arms that wrap and secure the cover structure to the tent tubing. The thermo-formed material retains the initial shape in a flexible manner to allow pressing installation and prying removal of the cover from the tent. The cover increases tent installation efficiency and extends canopy life.
