A COLLAPSIBLE AND EXPANDABLE TENT Abstract A tent is disclosed that is readily collapsible into a unitary flat package which can be readily stored on a hanger in a closet. When it is desired to "set up" the tent, a pair of latches are released and the tent automatically assumes or expands into a fully "set up" or erect condition. The tent comprises a fabric or canvas body mounted on corner posts secured to the ends of a pair of flexible bent rods arranged in criss-crossed relation. The inherent tension in the bent rods automatically expands the tent body into its fully erect position. The tent can be readily collapsed into a flat package by manually moving the front and back corner posts and rods together so that they lie in intersecting planes that define a small acute angle therebetween. Latches are provided on the rods for latching the two rods and tent in its collapsed condition.
