A collapsible shelter/tent (Figure 1, 10). such as far example an umbrella tent, has a collapsible frame with a plurality d lags that are erected by manually moving two clevises toward one another. The shelter/tent includes an improved locking mechanism that very securely maintains the structure in an erected position. The improved locking mechanism includes a generally vertical pin extending from one of the clevises that is received inside a socket supported on the other of said clevises. The socket has an engaging member therein that can engage a groove in the generally vertical pin after said generally vertical pin has been inserted into said socket. Preferably, the engaging member is spring biased into the groove. The shelter/tent also includes a variety of novel frame structures. An erection device for erecting a collapsible tent is also included. The erection device includes an elongated pole and a slide member that can be used to control relative movement of the clevises toward end away from one another.

Un abri/tente pliable (figures 1 et 10) tel que par exemple une tente à armature parapluie comprend une armature pliable comportant plusieurs pieds qui sont étirés par le rapprochement manuel de deux étriers. L'abri/tente comprend un mécanisme de verrouillage amélioré qui maintient de manière très sure et solide la structure en position montée. Ce mécanisme de verrouillage amélioré comprend une goupille globalement verticale qui s'étend depuis un des étriers qui est logé à l'intérieur d'une douille située sur l'autre étrier. La douille est pourvue d'un élément de blocage qui peut bloquer une rainure de ladite goupille globalement verticale lorsque cette dernière a été introduite dans ladite douille. L'élément de blocage est de préférence sollicité par ressort dans la rainure. L'abri/tente comprend également une diversité de nouvelles structures d'armature. Un dispositif de montage permettant de monter une tente pliable est également inclus. Le dispositif de montage comprend une barre allongée et un élément coulissant qui peuvent être utilisés pour contrôler le mouvement relatif des étriers dans le sens du rapprochement ou de l'éloignement mutuel.
