For ski poles, walking poles and similar, a length-adjusting arrangement including an inner element 2 and an outer tube 1, there being a locking device 3 on this same first end 11 of the outer tube 1, with which locking device 3 the inner element 2 and the outer tube 1 can be releasably locked in various axial positions relative to each other, there also being a regulating device 4 on the other end 12 of the outer tube 1, with which regulating device 4 the locking device 3 can be manoeuvred, the outer mantle surface of the inner element 1 2 including two or more cut-outs 21 arranged at a distance from each other in the axial direction of the inner 419 element 2, the locking device 3 including a latching element 32 that is axially fixed relative to the outer tube 1 but, relative to this same outer tube 1, is displaceable between a first position where parts of said latching element 32 are inserted in one of said cut-outs 21 and a second position where said latching element 32 is disengaged from said cut-outs 21 and where the latching element 32 being moved, under the influence of a spring member 43, in a direction towards said first position, in which position the inner element 2 and the outer tube 1 are locked in the axial direction relative to each other and where the latching element 32 is moved, under the influence of the regulating device 4, in a direction towards said second position via an axially displaceable control 6, this control 6 being in the space between the outer mantle surface of the inner element 2 and the inner mantle surface of the outer tube 1, said control 6 extending axially from said locking device 3 to said regulating device 4 and where, in said second position, the inner element 2 and the outer tube 1 can be displaced in the axial direction relative to each other.

For ski poles, walking poles and similar, a length-adjusting arrangement including an inner element (2) and an outer tube (1), the inner element (2) having a first free end (23) that projects from and is axially displaceable from a first end (11) of the outer tube (1), there being a locking device (3) on this same first end (11) of the outer tube (1), with which locking device (3) the inner element (2) and the outer tube (1) can be releasably locked in various axial positions relative to each other, there also being a regulating device (4) on the other end (12) of the outer tube (1), with which regulating device (4) the locking device (3) can be manoeuvred via a control organ (6) that runs axially along the outer tube (1) and which is arranged in the space between the outer tube (1) and the inner element (2), the outer surface of the inner element (2) including two or more hollows (21) arranged at an axial distance from each other and the locking device (3) including a latching element (32) that is axially fixed relative to the outer tube (1), it being possible, under the influence of the regulating device (4), for said latching element (32) to be inserted into, and moved out from, one or more of said hollows (21) of the inner element (2), characteristic thereof being that the control organ (6) has a thin arcuate cross section, the outer contour of this cross section essentially coinciding with some part of the inner contour of the cross section of the outer tube (1), and it being possible to move said latching element (32) from said hollow (21) when, under the influence of the regulating device (4), said control organ (6) is displaced in a direction towards the first end (11) of the outer tube (1), the inner element (2) and the outer tube (1) being, under this influence, disengaged in an axial direction relative to each other.
