Abstract

A telescopic rod retainer is disclosed. A protecting sleeve is located above a tip-end post of an outer tube and a press resists against the protecting sleeve to prevent it from sliding down. When the press is pressed inwards, the press moves along an inner groove in the protecting sleeve and then to a buckling hole in the protecting sleeve so as to be ejected out so that the tip-end post is protected. In storing the rod retainer; the inner tube is rotated to further move into the outer tube. When the outer tube is near the buckling ring, the inner tube is further rotated so that a threaded rod at the lower end of the inner tube is rotated into the buckling ring. When the buckling ring approaches the inner rod body, the buckling ring will expand so as to be tightly combined with the outer tube.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is:  
     
         1 . A telescopic rod retainer comprising: 
 an outer tube formed by an outer tube body and a tip-end post below the outer tube body; a press being installed on the out tube body; the outer tube having inner threads; a press being installed at lower section of an outer surface of the outer tube body;    a buckling ring at a lower end of ah interior of the outer tube; and the outer tube being tightly, combined to the buckling ring;    an inner tube sequentially formed by a threaded rod, an inner tube body, and a moveable seat; a periphery of the moveable seat being formed with a plurality of buckling recesses; the inner tube being screwed in the outer tube,    a clip having a movable tenon; the movable tenon being installed to the moveable scat; the clip being movable with the rotation of the moveable seat; and    a protecting sleeve being formed by a sleeve body and a toggle below the sleeve body, and a buckling hole being formed on the sleeve body and an inner groove in the inner surface of the toggle body; the protecting sleeve being installed at a lower end of an interior of the outer tube;    wherein the protecting sleeve encloses the outer tube above the tip-end post and the press is out of the toggle and resists against the protecting sleeve so that the protecting sleeve will not slide down; when the press is pressed inwards, the press moves along the inner groove in the protecting sleeve and then to the buckling hole so as to be ejected out so that the tip-end post is protected by the protecting sleeve; thereby, in moving, the tip-end post will not touch the ground; and    wherein when it is desired to store the rod retainer; the inner tube is rotated to further move into the outer tube; when the outer tube is near the buckling ring, the inner tube is further rotated so that the threaded rod is rotated into the buckling ring; when the buckling ring approaches the inner rod body, the buckling ring will expand so as to be tightly combined with the outer tube.    
     
     
         2 . The telescopic rod retainer as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the thread of the outer tube has an orientation opposite to the thread at the interior of the buckling ring, and a section of the inner surface of the outer tube above the buckling ring has no threads; thereby, firstly, the, inner tube is rotated along one direction, when the threaded rod touches the buckling ring, the inner tube, rotates along an opposite direction so that the threaded rod is screwed into the buckling ring.
