Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A device for tents comprising a brace of predetermined length and predetermined cross sectional shape and a plurality of engagement features providing a:
 a. first means for attaching said brace to frame or members and   b. a second means for locking said brace and a mount into position and   c. a third means for attaching said mount to said brace:   a curl pin as a means for locking said brace and said mount into position:   said mount is detachable from said brace and is an engagement feature providing a:   a. first means for engaging an item and a   b. second means for attaching said item to said brace,   
     whereby the device positions an item that is used by a human and the item is secured to the mount and the mount is incorporated into the brace and the brace is attached to tent frame members and curl pins lock the brace and the mount into place. 
   
   
       2 . The brace of  claim 1  wherein said brace further including sections and said sections are of a predetermined length and a predetermined shape and are interlocking-able. 
   
   
       3 . The brace of  claim 1  wherein said brace further including slide-able sections. 
   
   
       4 . The mount of  claim 1  wherein said mount is comprised of a plurality of parts. 
   
   
       5 . The mount of  claim 1  wherein said mount is disassemble-able. 
   
   
       6 . An apparatus comprising of a cross strut and an adapter, and a plurality of curl pins:
 a. said cross strut is of predetermined length and predetermined shape and has a plurality of voids at predetermined locations and said voids are of predetermined shapes and predetermined sizes and   b. said adapter is detachable from said cross strut and said adapter is composed of a plurality of predetermined parts of predetermined sizes and of predetermined shapes and said parts have voids at predetermined locations and of predetermined shapes and predetermined sizes, and   c. said curl pins are of predetermined size and predetermined shape.   
   
   
       7 . The cross strut of  claim 7  wherein said strut fuLrther including is comprised of interlocking-able sections. 
   
   
       8 . The cross strut of  claim 7  wherein said strut further including is comprised of extending-able sections. 
   
   
       9 . The adapter of  claim 7  wherein said adapter is comprised of a plurality of parts and hardware. 
   
   
       10 . The plurality of parts of said adapter of  claim 7  wherein said parts are disassemble-able. 
   
   
       11 . A contrivance for tents comprising a beam of a plurality of sections of predetermined length and predetermined shape and predetermined sizes and a plurality of engagement features:
 a. said sections providing a first means for assembling the beam and said sections providing a second means for said beam achieving various lengths, and   b. said plurality of engagement features providing a first means for engaging said beam to frame(s), and as a second means for engaging a carrier to said beam, and a third means for said carrier to engage an item and   c. a plurality of curl pins as a means for locking said beam and said carrier in position.   
     Whereby the contrivance securely positions an item to a tent with flexible non-rigid walls and that item is used and enjoyed by a human. 
   
   
       12 . The beam's sections of  claim 13  wherein said sections are disassemble-able. 
   
   
       13 . The carrier of  claim 13  wherein said carrier is detachable from said beam. 
   
   
       14 . The carrier of  claim 13  wherein said carrier is composed of a plurality of parts. 
   
   
       15 . The carrier of  claim 13  wherein said carrier is disassemble-able. 
   
   
       16 . The curl pins of  claim 13  wherein said curl pins are colligated and or attached to said beam. 
   
   
       17 . A method for making an opening in flexible non rigid fabric walls thereby providing a means for protruding an item that is used by a human into a tent:
 a. said opening comprising a predetermined size and predetermined shape and predetermined location, and   b. said opening having an engagement feature as a first means for reinforcing said opening and as a second means for contributing to form a seal between said item and said opening and as a third means providing for re-closure of said opening, and   c. a plurality of collars having an engagement feature providing a first means for additionally reinforcing said opening and as a second means for contributing to form said seal.   
     Whereby the opening permits the protrusion of an item or part thereof into a tent and the collars reinforce and form a seal between an object and the opening and, whereby the collars permit the tent's non rigid wall to flex as weather conditions may dictate thereby increasing functionality and increasing longevity of the tent and fuirther the opening is re-closeable so that the tent can be restored to its like original non-modified condition. 
   
   
       18 . The opening of  claim 17  wherein said opening further includes subsections. 
   
   
       19 . The subsections of  claim 17  wherein said sections are of predetermined shape and of predetermined sizes. 
   
   
       20 . The subsections of  claim 17  wherein said subsections are individually re-closeable. 
   
   
       21 . The opening of claiml 7  wherein said opening's engagement feature is comprised of hook and loop type tape or legal equivalent. 
   
   
       22 . The subsections of  claim 17  wherein said subsections are delineated with hook and loop type tape or legal equivalent.
