Patent attributes
An adjustable rod assembly includes an elongate first tubular member having a first end and a second end. A cam body is secured to the first end of the first tubular member and has an oblong shaft portion. A collar is disposed about the cam body with an inner surface shaped to coincide with the oblong shaft portion. An elastomeric sleeve is disposed about the collar. An elongate second tubular member has a first end sized to receive the first end of the first tubular member within an internal cavity and engages the elastomeric sleeve. Rotation of the collar to a locked position causes a force from the elastomeric sleeve against an internal surface of the second tubular member to resist axial translation. At least one of the first tubular member second end and a second tubular member second end is adapted to engage a household surface.
