ABSTRACT:
A support structure for a flexible cover such as is utilized on a portable enclosure wherein the tip of the supporting ribs or tubes engages the cover to maintain the same in position. The tip which is disclosed in this specification includes a shank section which is telescopically received by the tubular rib and a retaining section passable through a grommet in the cover. The tube is provided with a plurality of apertures and a resilient detent, forming a part of the tip, passes selectively thereinto to restrain telescopic movement of the tip with respect to the tube. The effective length of the rib can be altered by selectively positioning the detent in one of the apertures.
