<p>The invention relates to a method of folding an item comprising a structure of arcs that can be folded between an open position for use and a folded position for storage, in which the item has a circular configuration. It is particularly applicable to folding tents, shelters and ball game devices. The invention thus relates, in a first aspect, to a method of folding an item comprising a structure of arcs that can be folded with at least one closed loop, in a folded position in which this loop takes the form of three preferably circular superposed turns. The method consists particularly in forming with the loop an essentially planar figure comprising three loops: a central loop and two side loops, all essentially in the same plane. Each side loop is then folded down onto the central loop to form the three superposed turns.</p> |
