Abstract:
A collapsible all terrain shelter, comprising:at least three corner brackets;at least three frame members connectable to the corner brackets, wherein the frame members form a polygonal, substantially planar frame when connected to the corner brackets;a cloth floor suspendable substantially taut across said substantially planar frame;at least three of the corner brackets each further having leg linkages;at least three leg members each connectable to a corresponding leg linkage, wherein the leg members each extend in a common direction orthogonal to the plane of the planar frame when connected to their corresponding leg linkages;at least three leg adjustment mechanisms each allowing a corresponding leg member to be independently adjusted in length; anda collapsible tent supportable by an assembly comprising (1) the planar frame, (2) the leg members connected to the leg linkages, and (3) the leg adjustment mechanisms each independently adjusted so that the planar frame is substantially level when supported from grade by the leg members.
