Looking for collapsible IV pole?

I am taking my Mom to California in July. We live in Vermont. Nxstage says they will have a hard case so that I can take our machine on the plane with us.
But they don’t have a collapsible IV pole.

Does anyone know where I can get one?
I have thought og buying a iron pipe the same circumference as the IV pole we have and taking the top off and having the pipe as short as possible which will be approx. 32"

Perhaps a portable PD pole?

How interesting I was just looking that up today on the web. Really did not find one that really thrilled me. I think the Engineers at Nxstage to design one like the colapsable cane that the visually impaired use. That folds from about 4 feet to 6 or 8 inches.
I will still be looking to have one for travel.
