A canopy tent with an automatic umbrella-type collapsible frame is disclosed. The frame allows a user to easily, simply and quickly pitch or close the tent, in addition to simplifying its construction. In the collapsible frame (12) of the tent (10), a rib holder (14) rotatably holds the collapsible ribs (24) at its upper end while allowing the ribs to be stretchable in a radial direction when pitching the tent. A stopper (20) is mounted to the lower end of the rib holder (14), while a rope connector (22) is integrally formed at the lower end of the rib holder (14) and is used for holding a tension rope extending from the center of the ceiling part of the tent's canopy. A spreader holder (16) is movably fitted over the shank part of the rib holder (14) such that the spreader holder is movable upward and downward along the shank part. The spreader holder (16) rotatably holds the collapsible spreaders (28) while allowing the spreaders to be stretchable in a radial direction when pitching the tent. An elastic spring (18) is fitted over the shank part of the rib holder (14), and is used for biasing the spreader holder (16) so as to maintain a predetermined gap between the spreader holder (16) and the top end of the rib holder (14) when pitching the tent on a support surface. |
