(57) The telescopic pole comprises a set of similar tubular elements (50, 52, 54, ...,
56) having decreasing cross-sections and lengths, closed at the bottom and each provided
with a pair of turning, idle rollers (62, 64) journaled at their tops on opposite
walls. Each tubular element is contained within the next bigger one, in such a way
that successive tubular elements are alternately arranged with axes orthogonal to
each other, and the entire set of tubular elements is contained within a tubular frame
(22). Each tubular element has a flexible ribbon (66) attached at its ends to the
tops of opposite walls not journaling the rollers, and each ribbon passes over the
rollers of the next inward tubular element and under the closed end of the further
tubular element. Lifting means (36-48) are provided for lifting the most external
of said tubular elements with respect to the tubular frame.
