Abstract
A support device for an associated cover member includes a hub defining a bore adapted to receive a tip of an associated support pole. A shell projects radially outwardly from the hub. The shell defines an outer surface adapted to support an associated cover member. In use, the device is installed on a tip of a support pole so that an end portion of the tip projects through the support device. The projecting end portion of the pole tip is inserted into a grommet or eyelet of a cover to be supported. The pole is positioned so that the cover is supported on the outer surface of the shell. The device can have an overall frusto-conical shape.
