ABSTRACT:
An improved pull handle for use on a trunk is provided with an inverted U shaped grasp handle which is engaged with a hollow rod at each end thereof. Each hollow rod is inserted into a positioning tube. One of the positioning tubes is provided with a plurality of spaced slots thereon. An elongated rod having a press button associated with the top thereof is inserted into one of the hollow rods and a cam member is secured to the bottom end of the spring biased actuation rod. The cam member housed in a sleeve member having a slot disposed at the bottom thereof is in abutment against a spring biased base seat which is provided with a tilted surface in correspondence to the cam member. The base seat is supported in place by a round plate in the sleeve member. An extension tongue is disposed on the base seat and can stick out of or retract from the slot of the sleeve member and also the slots of the positioning tube when actuated by the cam member to slide outwardly or inwardly in the sleeve member. So, the length of the pull handle can be adjusted and be firmly retained at that adjusted length by way of the engagement of the extension tongue with the selected slot on the positioning tube.
