Length-Adjustable Pole And Clamping Apparatus Therefor
(57) Abstract
A clamping apparatus for a hiking pole for detachably axially fixing a pipe section that can be inserted into an opening of the clamping apparatus. The clamping apparatus has a plastic collar, which substantially directly encloses the pipe section at least in an axial section and clamps the same in the closed state, wherein at least in the region enclosing the pipe section the plastic collar has at least one axial slot making the circumference of the plastic collar variable in that region and is designed in a substantially peripheral manner in the remaining axial region. There are projections with a stop and a rotational axis for a clamping lever with an arm, the axis being arranged perpendicular to the axis of the transverse pin and perpendicular to the axis of the pipe section. The clamping lever also has a roll-off region, which is eccentric with respect to the rotational axis.
