Patent attributes
An adjustable walking cane includes an inner tube slidably received within an outer tube. The inner tube defines a plurality of apertures therethrough. A translating rod assembly having a central fixed rod and a concentrically mounted translating member is also included. An actuating assembly including a button proximate the top end of the outer tube is coupled to a first end of the translating member. A pin assembly is located at the bottom end of the outer tube and has a pin reciprocally translatable between an extended position, where the pin engages a selected aperture of the plurality of apertures defined within the inner tube, and a retracted position where the pin disengages from the outer tube. Application of a force upon the button causes the pin to move from the extended position to the retracted position such that the inner tube slides within the outer tube.
