Abstract: A vent is provided for a tent or shelter. The vent is supported by a centrally located vent pole, the vent pole running lengthwise with the vent flap. The vent pole is formed of a construction that is resilient enough to support the vent during use, but is flexible enough so that the vent may be collapsed during storage.

Abstract: A combustible fuel package is provided for a grill which comprises a generally tubular body defining a cavity therein, this body made of a paper material or other non-hazardous combustible material sufficient in strength to retain a solid fuel such as charcoal briquettes within the cavity for a sufficient amount of time to allow the solid fuel to burn to a sufficient degree for cooking food before the paper body is fully consumed, the body having a plurality of vertically oriented elongated apertures spaced around the exterior of the body.

Abstract: A folding chair (20) having an adjustable headrest (30). The chair includes a frame (28) having tubes (50). The headrest (30) includes a head support (62) extending between two tubes (60), the tubes (60) of the headrest slidably connected to the tubes (50) of the frame. Another chair (120) includes a sunshade (130), the sunshade having material extending between two tubes (174). The tubes (174) of the sunshade (130) insert into ferrules (151) attached to the frame (128) of the chair (120). The sunshade (130) may include cords (180) that tension the sunshade towards the chair. Another chair (220) includes at least one pair of crossing cross members (240) attached by a bracket (246). The bracket (246) includes a sleeve (250) and a pair of hooks (252), the hooks mounted to the side of the sleeve. One cross member (240A) is fixed within the sleeve (250) while the hooks (252) selectively engage opposite sides of the other cross member when the cross members are rotated s relative to one another.

Abstract: A hinged door (26) is provided for a tent (20). The hinged tent door (26) in one embodiment includes a frame (46) for supporting the outer edges of the door. The hinged tent door (26) may include a removable frame (46) so that the door may be folded along with the tent into a compact configuration for storage. As an example, the frame (46) may be one or more poles (48, 50) that are removably attached to the door.

Abstract: A collapsible tent is provided having windows which are provided at negative angles, facing the ground. In this configuration, the windows are protected from the entry of rain there through without the aid of a cover. The collapsible tent includes a shell and a frame securable to the shell for supporting the shell. The frame includes at least one outer pole for supporting a wail portion of the shell. The outer pole includes an upper curved section for supporting a window portion on the wall of the shell, where the outer pole positions the window in a substantially downwardly facing direction.

The air frame (162) includes an air bladder, which stiffens as it is inflated. The air frame (162) may include portions that are individually inflatable, and a pump (26) may be included for inflating the air frame (162). The backpack (160) may include inflatable portions (22) designed to provide support to specific portions of a user's body.

Abstract: A cooler having two compartments connected together along a common edge. The cooler is configurable between an open configuration and a closed configuration by rotating the compartments about the edge. The cooler may include a handle connected to each compartment near the edge, and the two compartments may be secured to one another by a zipper or other fastener. A cooler is also provided having a bag with a zipper with sets of teeth extending along portions of the top edge of the bag. The cooler may be closed by closing the zipper and folding the bag in a manner so as to create flaps that can be folded downwards and secured to the bag.

Abstract: A folding camping stove. The folding camping stove may be formed in a clamshell configuration, having two clamshells that fold outward to expose at least two cooking surfaces. Two pivot points are provided on the folding camping stove. Each of the clamshells folds about a separate pivot point. Fuel trains for the clamshells are positioned at the pivot points. A regulator and manifold assembly is provided for providing gas from a canister to the folding stove. The manifold splits the gas coming from the regulator and directs it to opposite sides of the folding stove. Each of the clamshells includes a cooking grate. The cooking grates appear symmetrical from a top view, but are slightly offset relative to one another so that the clamshells may be folded inward relative to each other and the grates may nest together.
