Abstract: The invention relates to brake systems for telescopic stands, the lugs (11) of which for supporting same in the unfolded position are simultaneously disengaged by pressing the control trigger (3) to achieve unfolding and folding without any untimely locking of said telescopic stands. In the unfolded position of the telescopic stand, the lugs (11) are inserted into the holes (8) of sliding segments (7) by tensioning and movement of a flexible link (15). Pressing the trigger (3) moves the flexible link (15) to the bottom and simultaneously frees the springs (13) which compress the lugs (11) inside inner brackets (9), enabling the sliding and folding of said sliding segments (7). The invention can be specifically used for telescopic stands for video or still cameras, telescopic luggage handles, and telescopic storage devices.
