An adjustable shade shelter for providing shade, the adjustable shade shelter comprising:
- a support frame including a plurality of vertical legs, wherein a leg of the plurality of legs has a first vertical height;
- a plurality of canopies, wherein at least one of the plurality of canopies of the plurality of canopies includes a plurality of openings that permit air to pass through a part of the at least one canopy;
- and
- a coupling system configured to couple a first canopy of the plurality of canopies to the support frame at a plurality of adjustable vertical height positions with respect to the support frame such that the first canopy of the plurality of canopies can be disposed at different vertical height positions with respect to the support frame.
A shelter for providing shade, the shelter comprising:
- a portable support frame including a plurality of vertical legs, wherein a leg of the plurality of legs has a first vertical height;
- a plurality of canopies supported on the portable frame in a layered arrangement, wherein a first canopy of the plurality of canopies is disposed at a different level of the layered arrangement than a second canopy of the plurality of canopies,
- wherein a position of at least one of the first canopy or the second canopy is adjustable with respect to a position of the other of the first canopy or the second canopy in at least one of a vertical direction or a horizontal direction or a combination thereof,
- wherein at least two of the plurality of canopies includes a plurality of openings configured to permit air to pass through each respective canopy, and
- wherein the plurality of openings of adjacent canopies of the plurality of canopies are not aligned with each other;
- and
- a coupling system configured to couple the first canopy of the plurality of canopies to the portable support frame at a plurality of adjustable vertical height positions with respect to the portable support frame such that the first canopy of the plurality of canopies can be disposed at different vertical height positions with respect to the portable support frame.
A canopy system for a shelter for providing shade, the canopy system comprising:
- a plurality of canopies configured to be supported on a frame of a shelter in a layered arrangement, wherein at least two canopies of the plurality of canopies includes a plurality of openings configured to permit air to pass through each respective canopy;
- and
- a coupling system configured to couple a first canopy of the plurality of canopies to the frame at a plurality of adjustable vertical height positions with respect to the frame such that the first canopy of the plurality of canopies can be disposed at different vertical height positions with respect to the support frame and such that a position of at least one canopy of the plurality of canopies is capable of being offset with respect to a position of another canopy of the plurality of canopies in at least one of a vertical direction or a horizontal direction or a combination thereof.
