Tent use attention and maintenance

Although the use of tents is not complicated, it should be said that it is also a knowledge. The same tent, when used properly, has good wind and rain protection effects, and vice versa. The use of tents should pay attention to three aspects: 1. The selection of tent sites The support of the tent should be selected in a relatively flat area, the entrance and exit should be facing away from the air outlet, and the ground should be relatively dry. Choose on a downhill slope, so that it is easy to dig trenches for drainage. 2. After the tent is supported and fixed, the four corners of the tent should be fixed first, so that the bottom of the tent is laid flat on the ground and fixed firmly. If conditions permit, a floor mat can be placed under the tent, which can protect the bottom of the tent and achieve the best waterproof effect. . When supporting the tent, in addition to the reliable connection with the tent pole, special attention should be paid to pulling the tent tightly to make the tent taut, so as to facilitate the tent to achieve the best rain resistance, and the tent with skirt should be pressed with sarsas or soft cheese. , Snow pressure can also be used in winter, which is conducive to preventing see. An inclination angle of the ground nail, the appropriate angle is 40 degrees, the distance and direction of the ground nail into the ground and the pulling force should be the same axis, and the leash and the ground nail form a 90-degree angle, which is conducive to achieving a large force strength. In the fixing sequence, attention should be paid to the corresponding fixing, for example: first the left front corner, then the right rear corner, the right front corner, the left rear corner, after repairing the tent and fixing it, adjust the pulling rope to make the pulling force in all aspects consistent. After propping up the tent, check the distance between the inner tents. If they are attached together, it will affect the rain and dew protection, so it should be adjusted. 3. When digging a drainage ditch for camping, if it rains, the procedure of digging a drainage ditch cannot be omitted. The drainage ditch should be close to the outer edge of the tent. If there is no tent with a skirt, the position of the ditch should be convenient for the water flowing from the outer tent to enter the ditch. It is advisable to dig a drainage ditch around the tent so that the accumulated water can be drained smoothly.

Camping warmth is the task of sleeping bags. The main functions of tents are windproof, rainproof, dustproof, dewproof and moistureproof, providing campers with a relative Comfortable resting environment. According to the above goals, the following factors should be considered in the selection of tents: 1. Select the outer tent and strive for high waterproofness. You can blow the fabric with your mouth to test its air permeability. Generally speaking, if the air permeability is poor, the waterproofness will be very good. 2. Select the inner account to strive for good air permeability. 3. The selection of struts requires high strength and good resilience. 4. The choice of primer should pay attention to water resistance and wear resistance. 5. The tent used for camping is better to choose a double-layer structure. 6. Specification selection It is better to have a door shed, or consider a slightly larger size. 7. Choose a tent with front and rear double doors, which is conducive to ventilation. Maintenance and maintenance of the tent: It is also very important to clean up the tent after use. It is related to the service life of the tent and also directly affects the future use.

Clean the bottom of the tent and wipe the sediment , if there is pollution, it can be slightly scrubbed with clean water. 2. Cool and dry the tents inside and outside the tent, and then put them away after they are restored to dryness. If it is too late to dry the tent, remember not to store it for a long time, so as to avoid coloring and mildew. As soon as possible, cool it immediately. 3. Clean up the sediment of the pole. 4. Check the integrity of the tent accessories. 5. It is not advisable to clean with detergents to avoid affecting the waterproof effect. 6. Specification selection It is better to have a door shed, or consider a slightly larger size. 7. Choose a tent with front and rear double doors, which is conducive to ventilation.
