Wireless portable vehicle lift system incorporating one or more enhanced communication and/or control features. The lift system can incorporate enhanced touch screen-enabled functionalities and/or enhanced wireless communication features.

A parking robot includes a lifting rail, a wheel clamp, and a lift motor. The wheel clamp is disposed on the lifting rail and is moveable from a first position to a second position along the lifting rail. The lift motor is operatively connected to the lifting rail and moves the wheel clamp from the first position to the second position.

An off-road specialized jack having features making it more able to perform its function in off-road environments. Jacks of the inventive subject matter can include a skid plate, large diameter, non-pneumatic wheels, and, in some embodiments, a lift extender to facilitate lifting high-clearance objects or vehicles. The lift extender can be removably coupled with the jack, and its height can be adjusted according to a user's needs.

A wheeled support stand with a recessed tray for supporting a vertical upright member is provided.

Embodiments of vehicle lifts and swivel mounts are disclosed. A lifting system for a vehicle comprises a vehicle lift and a mount configured to attach to the vehicle lift. The mount has a saddle comprising a horizontal plate and first and second side plates extending from opposing sides of the horizontal plate; a pair of raceways disposed atop the horizontal plate defining a channel; a plurality of ball bearings disposed within the channel; a tray rotatably secured to the horizontal plate, the tray being freely rotatable atop the ball bearings; and at least one tie down secured to the saddle. A vehicle is positioned atop the mount and is rotatable via the tray. Rotation of the vehicle is temporarily impeded by strapping the vehicle to the tie down.

Techniques are disclosed for methods and systems for automating the operation of a rolling-jack system for the servicing of automotive vehicles. The rolling-jack(s) travel/transport between the runways of a drive-on lift. They have automated/motorized transportation, engagement and jacking power mechanisms. These mechanisms are controlled by a guidance system which guides/controls them for a fully automated operation. A number of technologies may be used for this purpose, including sensors onboard the vehicles and/or the drive-on lifts and/or the rolling-jacks and/or the service center. A computer vision pipeline may also be utilized to assist in the process. Machine learning may also be employed. Techniques are also extended to autonomous vehicles as well as interfacing with fleet management software.
