Other feature that further describes of jack (1) is normally known.According to the present invention, jack (1) has a mobile stool (40), is supported between arm (4), (5), (6) and (7).

Each arm (4), (5), (6) and (7) all have the through hole of a pair of aligning, are used to hold the guide finger (28) that passes its slotted flange.The bar (29) fixing by these pins (28) inwardly extends to guidance set (30) always.Bar (29) begins to extend from having the substrate that pore structure (32) are arranged (31) that holds pin (28).Guidance set (30) comprises two side plates (33) that are essentially rectangle, and each side plate has independently hole, four intervals, and described hole lays respectively on the circular projection (33.1) of rectangle folding corner region.Four pins (35) pass plate (33).Pin (35) adapter plate (33) also is separated from each other it, and above and below cover plate (34) is fixed between them.Outward extending from each pin (35) is sleeve (36).The through hole that runs through the aligning of sleeve wall is equipped with pin (35), thus with four sleeves (36) pivotal joint between plate (33).As shown in the figure, bar (29) places sleeve (36).Four coil springs (37) are enclosed within bar (29) and go up and place respectively cooresponding sleeve (36).These bars (29) and sleeve (36) structure with spring (37), are formed the telescopic adaptor union (41) that is used for mobile stool (40).

Be encapsulated between plate (33) and (34) is elongated guide (38).This guide (38) has a level and smooth longitudinal hole (39), is used to hold threaded shaft (12), as shown in the figure.This guide (38) preferably is made of oil base nylon or other similar self-lubricating material.The flat head screw (not shown) is passed cover plate (34) so that guide is fixed on the appropriate location.When operation jack when (1), this guide (38) is used to keep the relative position relation between guidance set (30) and spool (12).The such configuration mode of carriage (40) and its adaptor union (41) can be realized from centering.

Gudgeon (9) and (10) have a pair of nyliner (9.1) and (10.1) respectively.Lining is near the slotted flange in the knuckle joint portion (8).

In use, axle (12) rotation makes screwed gudgeon (10) move along axle (12), thereby gudgeon (9) and (10) are furthered mutually.Bearing support (3) moves to the direction away from pedestal (2), is generally used for vehicle (not illustrating in the drawings) is lifted from ground.

Arm during the lifting operation (4), (5), (6) and (7) pivoted, ancon (8) stretches, and carriage (40) is reinforced jack (1).When these took place, the distance between ancon (8) and the guidance set (30) reduced.Select gudgeon (9) and (10), this configuration structure of guide finger on arm (28) and guidance set (30), thereby when jack (1) when entering extended configuration, compression connector spring (37).Compressed spring (37) has strengthened the rigidity of structure.When ancon (8) to guiding assembly (30) when mobile, the outside power that compressed spring (37) is applied helps jack (1) to stretch with the lifting load.

The adaptor union (41) of each side of guidance set (30) forms acute angle each other.This angle is along with jack (1) stretches, and spring (37) is tending towards upright shape and increases.This means that spring (37) applies the mechanical assistance effect draw to an end thereupon, when the car body of vehicle is engaged, and when being in the stage that is raised, this situation is desirable.

Susceptor pin (16.1) near axle (12) operation end (14) one sides preferably is arranged to be slightly higher than another pin (16.2) in projection (15).To cause like this stretching when jack (1), bearing support (3) slightly curvedly moves up during away from the operation end (14) of axle (12).This bearing support is along with car body one vehicle offside wheel direction inclination in the same way.The vertical lifting of jack must cause their basement tilt, and this can cause it to skid off under car.This point is especially outstanding when operation ground is not firm or uneven in the open air.In order to make bearing support (3) do arcuate movement, also can allow one of them arm slightly than other brachium.

The selection of suitable spring (37), the setting of amount of spring compression and relate to mobile stool (40) and other of adaptor union (41) changes all in those skilled in the art's designed capacity.Being appreciated that coil spring can be substituted by other spring, also can be hydraulic pressure or gas-pressure component.The spring of lightweight can be selected, and it is mainly used in and supports but not auxiliary lifting.

In optional embodiment, carriage forms by the plate of regular length is hinged.Four connector boards extend internally from each arm respectively.These plates together are connected on the 5th center plate.This five interconnective symmetrical configuration of plate are arranged between the slotted flange of jack both sides.Two center plates can interconnect and guide by a slide block that engages slidably on axle.Pin is stretched and all remains unchanged during indentation at jack with the distance between the pin that is used in each connector board selecting on the arm and in the installation site on the center plate.Such carriage can not still can play the effect of reinforcement feature according to auxiliary stretching, extension of the such mode of first embodiment that has stated.

Carriage also can be made of a pair of elongated plate, and they extend to cooresponding upper arm and extend to another upper arm at opposite side from another underarm from a underarm in a side of jack respectively.In addition, the pin of the pivotal joint on slotted flange is installed and is gone up in place, to reinforce jack.

Be understandable that and can adopt other configuration mode, its medi-spring is compressed by mobile stool.For example, the adaptor union of pivotal joint has fixing length and is fixed on the centre pilot assembly divided into two parts, wherein each part all can with the axle slide joint.Spring can place between two parts the axle on.This mounting means will make spring be compressed when jack carries out the lifting operation.

It should be understood by those skilled in the art that based on the technical characterictic of stating jack, in the case without departing from the scope of protection of the present invention, can obtain multiple other modification.Such as, carriage can be positioned at the front and/or rear spaced positions with jack, and needn't inwardly directly extend from slotted flange.
