ABSTRACT:
A noncylindrical telescoping handle. Noncylindrically shaped tube members, such as ergonomically designed substantially triangular shaped tubes, are slidably engaged within one another which allow the tubes to move only in a linear relationship with respect to one another. By preventing the tubular members from rotating relative to one another, the telescoping handle can be moved and locked into a plurality of alternate positions of varying lengths. A spring-snap button is provided in the inner tubular member whereby the snap button protrudes through an aperture in the outer member when the two structures come into alignment. Furthermore, an elongated opening is provided at the end of the outer tubular member providing an emergency stop to prevent the tube members from completely separating.
