A tent frame, comprising:
- post sets each located at one end of four ends of the tent frame, every two neighboring post sets engaging respectively with a first linkage rod set and a second linkage rod set, the first linkage rod set of one of the post sets and the second linkage rod set of a neighboring one of the post sets being pivotally engaged with each other through a first driven rod set and a second driven rod set which in turn are pivotally engaged with each other in a cross and staggered manner, the first and the second linkage rod sets each including respectively a first main rod which has one end pivotally engaged with one of the post sets and another end pivotally engaged with a respective one of the first and the second driven rod sets, a first displacement rod which has one end pivotally engaged with a first sliding sleeve movably coupled with the post set and another end pivotally engaged with the first main rod, and a first secondary rod which has one end pivotally engaged with the first displacement rod and another end pivotally engaged with the first and the second driven rod sets, the first and the second driven rod sets each including respectively a second main rod which is pivotally engaged with the first main rod and a second secondary rod which is pivotally engaged with the first main rod and the first secondary rod, the second secondary rod further being pivotally engaged with an end of the second main rod of a neighboring linkage rod set;
- a center pole located in a center of the tent frame engaging with four passive bar sets, each of the passive bar sets being engaged with a juncture of the first and the second driven rod sets, each of the passive bar sets including a main bracing bar driven by the first and second driven rod sets, the main bracing bar having one end pivotally engaged with a secondary bracing bar and a second displacement rod, the second displacement rod having one end pivotally engaged with a second sliding sleeve movably coupled with the center pole, the secondary bracing bar having another end pivotally engaged with a pole bar, the pole bar having one end pivotally engaged with the center pole and another end pivotally engaged with the second displacement rod;
- and
- wherein the first linkage rod sets, the second linkage rod sets, the first driven rod sets, the second driven rod sets and the passive bar sets are pivotally engaged with one another through toggle joints, and are movable by the post sets for extending or folding the tent frame when the post sets are moved away or towards the center pole.
