ABSTRACT:
A positive cam lock for a pair of telescoping extension poles. The cam support is mounted to the inner pole and carries a coaxially rotatably mounted idler cam and an eccentrically rotatably mounted locking cam. The outer pole has a number of inwardly extending splines which engage corresponding grooves on the locking and idler cams. When the outer pole is rotated, the eccentric cam will rotate and lock the outer pole at a desired axial position with respect to the inner pole while the idler cam prevents misalignment. A key mounted to the locking cam rides in a keyway on the cam support for preventing over-rotation of the locking cam.
