An Adjustment Device and Method of Use Thereof

Abstract

(Figure 1) An adjustment device for adjusting a length of a telescopic support having at least two telescoping support portions slidable relative to each other between a retracted position and an extended position. The device includes: an external member configured to fit at least partially about, and slide along, an outer surface of one of the telescoping support portions; a central support configured to slide longitudinally along a void of the telescoping support portion to move the other telescoping support portion between the retracted and extended positions; a bridge member interconnecting the external member and the central support and configured to slide along a longitudinal slot defined in a wall of the telescoping support portion such that the central support moves together with the external member; and an actuator configured to releasably fix the external member and central support at a selected position corresponding to a desired length of the telescopic support. 20 26 20 20 73 18 M ar 2 02 6 2 0 2 6 2 0 2 0 7 3 1 8 2 0 2 6 M a r 2 0 2 6 2 0 2 0 7 3 1 8 2 0 2 6 M a r 1 / 3 F ig u re 1 1 0 0 1 2 0 1 1 0 1 3 0 1 4 0 1 1 2 1 4 0 1 1 0 1 4 4 1 4 2 F ig u re 2 1 1 5 1 0 0 1 1 4 1 2 0 1 2 2 1 2 4 1 1 0 1 1 2 1 5 0 1 1 4 1 5 2 1 5 4 1 5 6 1 8 0 20 26 20 20 73 1 8 M ar 2 02 6 2026202073 18 Mar 2026 100 110 112 120 115 130 156 1 / 3 114 110 140 180 140 150 Figure 1
