Abstract
A portable pop-up canopy tent frame includes a plurality of telescoping pop-up tent legs, each equipped with an extendable rollup baby gate embedded within its bottom portion. The gates feature flexible gate members extendable between fixed and free edges, and each gate is positionable between a retracted position and an extended position, where each is extended to span adjacent tent legs, providing for an enhanced enclosure and improved safety for children when in use. The frame also includes fasteners on the free edges of the gates for secure attachment to retention pegs on adjacent legs, ensuring stability and safety.

A portable pop-up canopy tent, comprising:
- a plurality of telescoping pop-up tent legs adapted to support a canopy removably connected to a plurality of respective top ends of the plurality of telescoping pop-up tent legs, said plurality of telescoping pop-up tent legs operatively connected by a canopy frame, each telescoping pop-up tent leg of the plurality of telescoping pop-up tent legs comprising a top portion and a bottom portion, respectively, each said bottom portion comprising a respective leg housing defining a respective inner cavity,
- each said bottom portion of each telescoping pop-up tent leg respectively comprising a cylindrical extendable rollup baby gate embedded within said inner cavity of the respective bottom portion of the respective telescoping pop-up tent leg,
- each cylindrical extendable rollup baby gate comprising at least one flexible gate member extendable between a fixed edge of the respective cylindrical extendable rollup baby gate and an opposite free edge, each cylindrical extendable rollup baby gate is respectively adapted to transition between a retracted position and an extended position, each said cylindrical extendable rollup baby gate rolled up around a respective rolling rod disposed inside the respective telescoping pop-up tent leg in the retracted position,
- each said cylindrical extendable rollup baby gate unrolled and extended between its respective pop-up tent leg and a respectively adjacent telescoping pop-up tent leg in the extended position, each respective free edge being adapted to be pulled from the inner cavity of the leg housing of its respective telescoping pop-up tent leg towards the respectively adjacent telescoping pop-up tent leg for extending the respective cylindrical extendable rollup baby gate into the extended position.
A portable pop-up canopy tent, comprising:
- a plurality of pop-up tent legs operatively connected by a canopy frame adapted to support a canopy, wherein at least one pop-up tent leg of the plurality of pop-up tent legs comprises a leg housing that defines an inner cavity;
- an extendable rollup baby gate comprising a flexible gate member operatively disposed within said inner cavity of the leg housing of the at least one pop-up tent leg, said extendable rollup baby gate positionable between a retracted position and an extended position, wherein in the retracted position said flexible gate member is wound around a rotatable rolling rod disposed inside said inner cavity, wherein in the extended position at least a portion of said flexible gate member is extended outwardly from the inner cavity of the leg housing.
