Abstract (en)

A positioning sleeve (10, 10', 10", 100) includes first and second surrounding portions (121, 122) adapted to surround outer and inner tube sections (210, 220) of a telescopic rod (200), respectively. The second surrounding portion (122) has a plurality of angularly spaced-apart recessed parts (1222) and a plurality of compressible retaining units (13, 13', 13", 130) respectively disposed in the recessed parts (1222). Each retaining unit (13, 13' , 13", 130) is connected to the corresponding recessed part (1222), and has an engaging part (132, 132' , 132", 170) projecting toward a through hole (11) in the second surrounding portion (122), and a deformable space (14) defined between the engaging part (132, 132' , 132", 170) and the respective recessed part (1222) . The deformable space (14) is deformed when the inner tube section (220) is friction-fitted into the second surrounding portion (122) and when the engaging part (132, 132', 132", 170) of each retaining unit (13, 13', 13", 130) abuts the inner tube section (220).
