Abstract: The present invention provides a portable support device adapted for being disassembled into segments for packing and being readily assembled. The support device in a first embodiment has a base block to which a pair of arms is assembled and to which a segmented pole is mounted in vertical orientation to support a mosquito net. In a second embodiment, an arm is assembled to a beam to define a horizontal plane and a segmented pole is assembled to the beam in a vertical orientation without use of a connecting block. In third and fourth embodiments, a pair of horizontal members are connected to each other and to a vertical support pole by a rigid connector. According to a third embodiment, a junction piece having two studs extending in a horizontal plane and a third stud in vertical orientation with an arm mounted to each of the horizontal studs and a pole mounted to the vertical stud to form a support apparatus.

Abstract: A portable mosquito net apparatus is formed of a frame, adapted to be sandwiched between a bed mattress and a mattress support surface, typically a mattress spring, and is held in place by the weight of the mattress. The frame mounts a mosquito net support to which a mosquito net is attached in a position over the mattress. The mosquito net is draped down about the edges of the mattress to form an enclosed space. The frame, mosquito net support, and mosquito net can be easily disassembled for storage or transport in a small luggage bag.
