First Claim
Patent Images
1. A tent for assembling on a ground surface, comprising:
- at least one wall panel at least partially defining a tent interior; and
a floor made of a flexible material and formed by at least one repositionable floor panel having a wall edge extending from the wall panel and having a freeable edge opposite the wall edge,wherein the floor panel is movable between a first position and a second position with the tent assembled for use, in the first position the floor is laid out flat covering all of the ground surface that is within the tent interior with the freeable edge fixed in place, and in the second position the freeable edge is unfixed and the floor panel is retracted into a compact arrangement rolled up to adjacent the wall panel with all or substantially all of the ground surface within the tent interior exposed, andwherein the floor panel is further movable to a third position with the floor panel laid out flat outside of the tent and covering at least a portion of the ground surface that is adjacent the wall panel, with the ground surface covered by the floor panel in the first position now exposed.

Abstract
A tent having a repositionable floor, the floor preferably including a pair of subpanels that mate together and form a water-resistant seam. The subpanels can be repositioned within the interior of the tent or exteriorly of the tent. Additionally, each floor subpanel can be retracted and secured to a wall of the tent so as to create a floorless or partially floorless tent.

8. A tent for assembling on a ground surface, comprising:
-
two opposing side wall panels at least partially defining a tent interior; and a floor made of a flexible material and formed by two repositionable floor panels each having a wall edge extending from one of the wall panels and each having a freeable edge opposite the wall edge, wherein the floor panels are movable between a first position and a second position with the tent assembled for use, in the first position the floor panels are laid out flat covering all of the ground surface that is within the tent interior with the freeable edges coupled together to form a seam, and in the second position the freeable edges are decoupled and the floor panels are each retracted into a compact arrangement adjacent the respective wall panels with all or substantially all of the ground surface within the tent interior exposed, and wherein the floor panels are further movable to a third position with each of the floor panels laid out flat outside of the tent on opposite sides of the tent and covering at least a portion of the ground surface that is adjacent the respective wall panels, with the ground surface covered by the floor panels in the first position now exposed. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13)
