The operation handle 6 is provided with a button 61 for operating the power mechanism 62. By operating the operation handle 6, the power mechanism 62 drives the screw rod 63 to rotate in a forward or reverse direction so as to move the nut 64 up and down along the screw rod 63, such that the first inner sleeve 1 can be unfolded and folded relative to the outer sleeve 0.


As shown in FIG. 2 and in conjunction with FIGS. 4A to 7B, the fully automatic telescopic rod of the present invention may be composed of three sleeves. A second inner sleeve 2 and an adjusting pull rope 40 are provided in the first inner sleeve 1. A middle portion of the first inner sleeve plug 11 at the lower end of the first inner sleeve 1 is formed with a through hole 111 for the screw rod 63 to pass therethrough. The nut 64 is fixed in the through hole 111. An upper end of an outer side of the through hole 111 of the first inner sleeve plug 11 is provided with a first inner plug pulley 112. An upper end of the first inner sleeve 1 is provided with a first inner sleeve fixing ring 12. The first inner sleeve fixing ring 12 is an annular ring fitted onto the upper end of the first inner sleeve 1. An inner wall of the first inner sleeve fixing ring 12 is formed with an engaging edge to hold against the upper end of the first inner sleeve 1 so as to confine the second inner sleeve 2. One side of an outer wall of the first inner sleeve fixing ring 12 is provided with a first inner sleeve fixing ring pulley 121. The adjusting pull rope 40 includes an opening rope 401 and a closing rope 402. First ends of the opening rope 401 and the closing rope 402 are fixed to a lower end of the second inner sleeve 2. Specifically, the first ends of the opening rope 401 and the closing rope 402 are fixed to a second inner sleeve plug 21 provided at the lower end of the second inner sleeve 2. Wherein, the length of the opening rope 401 is greater than the length of the closing rope 402. The opening rope 401 and the closing rope 402 may be formed by a pull rope. A second end of the opening rope 401 is inserted between the second inner sleeve 2 and the first inner sleeve 1 to extend out of the first inner sleeve 1 and pass through the first inner sleeve fixing ring pulley 121 at the upper end of the first inner sleeve 1, and then is fixed to the lower end of the outer sleeve 0 or an outer sleeve plug 01 provided at the lower end of the outer sleeve 0. A side wall of an upper portion of the first inner sleeve 1 is formed with a first inner sleeve opening 13 corresponding to a lower portion of the first inner sleeve fixing ring pulley 121 of the first inner sleeve fixing ring 12. That is, after the opening rope 401 is inserted out of the first inner sleeve opening 13 to pass through the first inner sleeve fixing ring pulley 121, the opening rope 401 is inserted in the first inner sleeve opening and then fixed to the outer sleeve plug 01 at the lower end of the outer sleeve 0. A second end of the closing rope 402 is inserted between the second inner sleeve 2 and the first inner sleeve 1 to extend out of the first inner sleeve 1 and pass through the first inner plug pulley 112 provided on the first inner sleeve plug 11 at the lower end of the first inner sleeve 1, and then is fixed to the upper end of the outer sleeve 0 or the outer sleeve fixing ring 02 at the upper end of the outer sleeve 0.


When the telescopic rod of the present invention is unfolded, the button 61 of the operation handle 6 is pressed to start the power mechanism 62 to output a forward rotation power to drive the screw rod 63 to rotate, and the nut 64 is moved upward along the screw rod 63, that is, the first inner sleeve 1 is driven to move upward relative to the outer sleeve 0. When the first inner sleeve 1 is moved upward, the distance between the first inner sleeve plug 11 and the outer sleeve plug 01 of the outer sleeve 0 is lengthened. The opening rope 401 pulls the second inner sleeve plug 21 to move upward relative to the first inner sleeve 1 to replenish the change of the distance, that is, the second inner sleeve 2 is simultaneously pushed to unfold relative to the first inner sleeve 1, thereby realizing the function of synchronously unfolding the three sleeves. By the function that the nut 64 can be positioned at any position of the screw rod 63 and the pulling action of the closing rope 402, the three sleeves can be unfolded at any position and won't be retracted.


When the telescopic rod of the present invention is retracted to shorten its length, the button 61 of the operation handle 6 is pressed to start the power mechanism 62 to output a reverse rotation power to drive the screw rod 63 to rotate, and the nut 64 is moved downward along the screw rod 63, that is, the first inner sleeve 1 is driven to move downward relative to the outer sleeve 0. When the first inner sleeve 1 is moved downward, the distance between the first inner sleeve plug 11 and the upper end of the outer sleeve 0 is lengthened. The closing rope 402 pulls the second inner sleeve plug 21 to move downward relative to the first inner sleeve 1 to replenish the change of the distance, that is, the second inner sleeve 2 is simultaneously retracted relative to the first inner sleeve 1, thereby realizing the function of synchronously retracting the three sleeves.

An inner wall of the first second sleeve fixing ring 22 is formed with an engaging edge to hold against the upper end of the second inner sleeve 2 so as to confine the third inner sleeve 3. One side of an outer wall of the second inner sleeve fixing ring 22 is provided with a second inner sleeve fixing ring pulley 221. The second adjusting pull rope 50 includes a second opening rope 501 and a second closing rope 502. First ends of the second opening rope 501 and the second closing rope 502 are fixed to a lower end of the third inner sleeve 3. Specifically, the first ends of the second opening rope 501 and the second closing rope 502 are fixed to a third inner sleeve plug 31 provided at the lower end of the third inner sleeve 3. Wherein, the length of the second opening rope 501 is greater than the length of the second closing rope 502. The second opening rope 501 and the second closing rope 502 may be formed by a pull rope. A second end of the second opening rope 501 is inserted between the third inner sleeve 3 and the second inner sleeve 2 to extend out of the second inner sleeve 2 and pass through the second inner sleeve fixing ring pulley 221 at the upper end of the second inner sleeve 2, and then is fixed to the lower end of the first inner sleeve 1 or the first inner sleeve plug 11 provided at the lower end of the first inner sleeve 1. A side wall of an upper portion of the second inner sleeve 2 is formed with a second inner sleeve opening 23 corresponding to a lower portion of the second inner sleeve fixing ring pulley 221 of the second inner sleeve fixing ring 22. That is, the second opening rope 501 is inserted out of the second inner sleeve opening 23 to pass through the second inner sleeve fixing ring pulley 221, and is inserted in the second inner sleeve opening 23, and then is fixed to the first inner sleeve plug 11 at the lower end of the first inner sleeve 1. A second end of the second closing rope 502 is inserted between the third inner sleeve 3 and the second inner sleeve 2 to extend out of the second inner sleeve 2 and pass through the second inner plug pulley 211 provided on the second inner sleeve plug 211 at the lower end of the second inner sleeve 2, and then is fixed to the upper end of the first inner sleeve 1 or the first inner sleeve fixing ring 12 at the upper end of the first inner sleeve 1.


By analogy, the fully automatic telescopic rod of the present invention may be composed of five or more sleeves, and it is only required to increase the inner sleeve and the adjusting rope and to cooperate with the plug and the pulley on the fixing ring of the previous inner sleeve. That is, when the fully automatic telescopic rod is composed of N sleeves (N≥3), a N−1 inner sleeve and a N−2 adjusting pull rope are provided in a N−2 inner sleeve. The N−2 adjusting pull rope includes a N−2 opening rope and a N−2 closing rope. First ends of the N−2 opening rope and the N−2 closing rope are fixed to a N−1 inner sleeve plug provided a lower end of the N−1 inner sleeve. A second end of the N−2 opening rope is inserted between the N−1 inner sleeve and the N−2 inner sleeve to extend out of the N−2 inner sleeve and pass through a N−2 inner sleeve fixing ring pulley at an upper end of the N−2 inner sleeve, and then is fixed to a N−3 inner sleeve plug provided at a lower end of a N−3 inner sleeve. A second end of the N−2 closing rope is inserted between the N−1 inner sleeve and the N−2 inner sleeve to extend out of the N−2 inner sleeve and pass through a N−2 inner plug pulley provided on a N−2 inner sleeve plug at a lower end of the N−2 inner sleeve, and then is fixed to an upper end of the N−3 inner sleeve or a N−3 inner sleeve fixing ring at the upper end of the N−3 inner sleeve.


When the four-section telescopic rod of the present invention is unfolded, the button 61 of the operation handle 6 is pressed to start the power mechanism 62 to output a forward rotation power to drive the screw rod 63 to rotate, and the nut 64 is moved upward along the screw rod 63, that is, the first inner sleeve 1 is driven to move upward relative to the outer sleeve 0. When the first inner sleeve 1 is moved upward, the distance between the first inner sleeve plug 11 and the outer sleeve plug 01 is lengthened. The opening rope 401 pulls the second inner sleeve plug 21 to move upward relative to the first inner sleeve 1 to replenish the change of the distance, that is, the second inner sleeve 2 is simultaneously pushed to unfold relative to the first inner sleeve 1. At the same time, when the second inner sleeve 2 is moved upward, the distance between the second inner sleeve plug 21 and the first inner sleeve plug 11 is lengthened. The second opening rope 501 pulls the third inner sleeve plug 31 to move upward relative to the second inner sleeve 2 to replenish the change of the distance, that is, the third inner sleeve 3 is simultaneously pushed to unfold relative to the second inner sleeve 2. In this way, the four sleeves can be unfolded synchronously.


When the telescopic rod of the present invention is retracted to shorten its length, the button 61 of the operation handle 6 is pressed to start the power mechanism 62 to output a reverse rotation power to drive the screw rod 63 to rotate, and the nut 64 is moved downward along the screw rod 63, that is, the first inner sleeve 1 is driven to move downward relative to the outer sleeve 0. When the first inner sleeve 1 is moved downward, the distance between the first inner sleeve plug 11 and the upper end of the outer sleeve 0 is lengthened. The closing rope 402 pulls the second inner sleeve plug 21 to move downward relative to the first inner sleeve 1 to replenish the change of the distance, that is, the second inner sleeve 2 is simultaneously retracted relative to the first inner sleeve 1. At the same time, when the second inner sleeve 2 is moved downward, the distance between the second inner sleeve plug 21 and the upper end of the first inner sleeve 1 is lengthened. The second closing rope 502 pulls the third inner sleeve plug 31 to move downward relative to the second inner sleeve 2 to replenish the change of the distance, that is, the third inner sleeve 3 is simultaneously retracted relative to the second inner sleeve 2. In this way, the four sleeves can be retracted synchronously.


In view of the above, the present invention is provided with the power mechanism 62. By operating the power mechanism 62 to turn in a forward or reverse direction, the screw rod 63 drives the nut 64 mated therewith to move up and down along the screw rod 63, and thus the first inner sleeve 1 connected the nut 64 is unfolded or folded relative to the outer sleeve 0 and realizes the positioning at any position. Therefore, the operator can easily and conveniently operate the fully automatic telescopic rod so as to reach a needed length of the rod.


Furthermore, depending on the retraction and the working length of the desired telescopic rod, the second inner sleeve 2, the third inner sleeve 3 and the N inner sleeve are sequentially arranged in the first inner sleeve 1 to cooperate with respective adjusting pull ropes. Each adjusting pull rope is composed of an opening rope and a closing rope. Each sleeve is provided with a pulley, such that the opening rope and the closing rope achieve the traction of the respective inner sleeves and the first inner sleeve to be simultaneously unfolded and folded, thereby providing a fully automatic function.
