Canopy system

Abstract

A canopy system is disclosed, including a first frame member and a second frame member. A canopy includes a first channel to receive the first frame member therethrough and a second channel to receive the second frame member therethrough. A first rope extends from a left side of the first frame member and a second rope extends from a right side of the first frame member. At least one anchor affixed to an end of each rope and at least one anchor affixed to the ends of the first frame member and the second frame member to retain the canopy in a suitable position. The canopy system allows for the efficient setup of the canopy both in windy conditions and calm (no wind) conditions.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A canopy system, comprising:
 a first frame member and a second frame member;   a canopy including a first channel to receive the first frame member therethrough, and the canopy including a second channel to receive the second frame member therethrough;   a first rope extending from a left side of the first frame member and a second rope extending from a right side of the first frame member;   at least one anchor affixed to an end of each rope and at least one anchor affixed to the ends of the first frame member and the second frame member to retain the canopy in a suitable position.   
     
     
         2 . The canopy system of  claim 1 , further comprising a base positioned on the ground surface. 
     
     
         3 . The canopy system of  claim 1 , wherein the canopy includes reinforced bands. 
     
     
         4 . The canopy system of  claim 1 , wherein the canopy is constructed of a flexible material. 
     
     
         5 . The canopy system of  claim 3 , wherein the canopy is constructed a UV protective material. 
     
     
         6 . The canopy system of  claim 1 , wherein the first frame member and the second frame member each include a plurality of frame sections. 
     
     
         7 . The canopy system of  claim 6 , wherein a string extends through the interior of each of the plurality of frame sections to facilitate the connection of each of the plurality of frame sections. 
     
     
         8 . The canopy system of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one anchor includes a tip portion to facilitate the penetration of a ground surface. 
     
     
         9 . The canopy system of  claim 1 , wherein the first frame member is positioned at a front of the canopy. 
     
     
         10 . The canopy system of  claim 9 , wherein the second frame member is positioned rearward of the first frame member. 
     
     
         11 . A canopy system, comprising:
 a first frame member positioned at a front of the canopy system and a second frame member positioned at the rear of the canopy system;   a canopy including a first channel to receive the first frame member therethrough, and the canopy including a second channel to receive the second frame member therethrough;   a first rope extending from a left side of the first frame member and a second rope extending from a right side of the first frame member;   at least one anchor affixed to an end of each rope and at least one anchor affixed to the ends of the first frame member and the second frame member to retain the canopy in a suitable position; and   at least one sandbag connected to each of a first rope, the first rope, the second rope, a third rope and a fourth rope.   
     
     
         12 . The canopy system of  claim 11 , further comprising a base positioned on the ground surface. 
     
     
         13 . The canopy system of  claim 12 , wherein the canopy includes reinforced bands. 
     
     
         14 . The canopy system of  claim 13 , wherein the canopy is constructed of a flexible material. 
     
     
         15 . The canopy system of  claim 13 , wherein the canopy is constructed a UV protective material. 
     
     
         16 . The canopy system of  claim 15 , wherein the first frame member and the second frame member each include a plurality of frame sections. 
     
     
         17 . The canopy system of  claim 16 , wherein a string extends through the interior of each of the plurality of frame sections to facilitate the connection of each of the plurality of frame sections. 
     
     
         18 . The canopy system of  claim 17 , wherein the at least one anchor includes a tip portion to facilitate the penetration of a ground surface. 
     
     
         19 . The canopy system of  claim 18 , wherein at least one sandbag includes a container at least partially filled with a weighted material. 
     
     
         20 . The canopy system of  claim 19 , wherein the at least one sandbag incudes an opening to selectively fill the sandbag with the weighted material.
