Portable telescopic threaded utility pole
View Patent ↗Disclosed is a telescopic utility pole where the individual segments are threaded on the outer and inner surfaces, the adjacent segments are threadedly engaged and extension/retraction of the pole segments is performed by twisting along threaded path. The advantage of using the threaded telescopic utility pole is that it can be deployed and erected quickly as compared to traditional utility poles.
1. A pole comprised of
an outer bottom segment, an inner top segment, and a plurality of middle segments,

wherein the middle segment with the smallest diameter is threadedly engaged with the inner top segment,
whereby the pole is erected by twisting respective segments along their threaded surfaces until all segments are fully elongated from their adjacent segment and wherein the pole is a telescopic pole supporting utilities.
2. The pole of claim 1 , wherein the pole is threadedly attached to an all-terrain stabilizer.
3. The pole of claim 1 , wherein the pole is threadedly attached to a chassis.
4. The pole of claim 1 , wherein the outer bottom segment, the inner top segment, and each of the plurality of middle segments have a collet.
5. The pole of claim 1 , wherein the threaded outer surface of the inner top segment is only partially threaded and wherein each of the threaded outer surfaces of each middle segment is only partially threaded.
6. The pole of claim 1 wherein each outer surface and each inner surface of their respective segments has square threading pattern.
7. The pole of claim 1 wherein one or more of the respective segments is capable of receiving pegs, the pegs capable of receiving fasteners for providing support to the pole when partially or fully elongated.
8. The pole of claim 1 wherein one or more of the respective segments is capable of receiving pins, the pins capable of receiving fasteners for providing support to the pole when partially or fully elongated.
9. The pole of claim 1 wherein one or more of the respective segments is further comprised of pole climbing steps.
10. The pole of claim 1 wherein one or more of the respective segments is capable of receiving at least one hardware attachment.
11. The pole of claim 1 wherein one or more of the respective segments is further comprised of half-moon bubble stop rivets.
12. The pole of claim 1 wherein the threaded inner surface of the outer bottom segment is fully threaded, the threaded inner surface of the inner top segment is fully threaded, and the threaded inner surface of each of the middle segments is fully threaded.
13. The pole of claim 1 , wherein one or more of the respective segments are further comprised of access holes.
14. The pole of claim 1 further comprised of dust covers.
15. The pole of claim 1 being comprised of dielectric material.
16. The pole of claim 1 wherein one or more of the respective segments is capable of receiving anti-twist locking mechanisms.
17. A pole comprised of
an outer bottom segment, an inner top segment, and a plurality of middle segments,
the outer bottom segment being located at the bottom of the pole when elongated and having an outer surface and a threaded inner surface and being largest in diameter,
the inner segment being located at the top end of the pole when elongated and having a threaded outer surface, a threaded inner surface, and being smallest in diameter,
the plurality of middle segments progressively having a smaller diameter with a bottom most middle segment having a largest diameter and a top most middle segment having a smallest diameter, and each middle segment having a threaded outer surface and a threaded inner surface;
wherein each of the plurality of middle segments are threadedly engaged with one another in a series from the largest diameter to the smallest diameter,
wherein the middle segment with the largest diameter is threadedly engaged with the outer bottom segment,
wherein the middle segment with the smallest diameter is threadedly engaged with the inner top segment,
whereby the pole is erected by twisting respective segments along their threaded surfaces until all segments are fully elongated from their adjacent segment and wherein the pole is stabilized by a threaded rod being inserted in the inner top segment and continuing through the pole into a base plate.
18. A pole comprised of
an outer bottom segment, an inner top segment, and a plurality of middle segments,
the outer bottom segment being located at the bottom of the pole when elongated and having an outer surface and a threaded inner surface and being largest in diameter,
the inner segment being located at the top end of the pole when elongated and having a threaded outer surface, a threaded inner surface, and being smallest in diameter,
the plurality of middle segments progressively having a smaller diameter with a bottom most middle segment having a largest diameter and a top most middle segment having a smallest diameter, and each middle segment having a threaded outer surface and a threaded inner surface;
wherein each of the plurality of middle segments are threadedly engaged with one another in a series from the largest diameter to the smallest diameter,
wherein the middle segment with the largest diameter is threadedly engaged with the outer bottom segment,
wherein the middle segment with the smallest diameter is threadedly engaged with the inner top segment,
whereby the pole is erected by twisting respective segments along their threaded surfaces until all segments are fully elongated from their adjacent segment and wherein the pole is buried into a ground surface.
19. The pole of claim 18 , wherein the one or more of the respective segments is capable of receiving guy wire attachments that are used for supporting the pole when partially or fully elongated.
