An expandable car jack includes a vehicle lifting assembly with an upper lifting member, a lower lifting member mechanically coupled to the upper lifting member, and a lifting mechanism capable of moving the upper lifting member to a plurality of raised height positions. A base is coupled to the vehicle lifting assembly and includes a first base support member, a second base support member, and a base support coupler that is operable to selectively couple the first base support member to the second base support member in at least a first coupling position and a second coupling position. The base support coupler selectively mechanically maintains a parallel alignment and a perpendicular alignment of the first base support member and the second base support member when the base support coupler is in the first coupling position, allows the first base support member and the second base support member to freely move between the parallel alignment and the perpendicular alignment when the base support coupler is in the second coupling position, and remains mechanically coupled to at least the first base support member in the first and second coupling positions so that the first base support member cannot move with respect to the second base support member without a mechanical alteration to the base support coupler prior to moving either the first base support member or the second base support member.

An intelligent platform may employ a unitary platform positioned between articulating legs with each articulating leg connected to a leveling module. The leveling module can be configured to execute a leveling strategy that involves extending at least one articulating leg to establish the unitary platform in a level orientation relative to an underlying, non-level terrain.

A vehicle jacking assembly for lifting a vehicle for performing maintenance thereon includes a housing, which defines an interior space and which is can be positioned on a surface below a frame of a vehicle. A pneumatic bag is engaged to the housing and is selectively extensible therefrom through an aperture positioned in a top of the housing. A compressor and a battery are engaged to the housing and positioned in the interior space. The compressor is operationally engaged to the pneumatic bag. The battery is operationally engaged to the compressor. The battery is positioned to selectively power the compressor to inflate the pneumatic bag so that the pneumatic bag extends from the housing and contacts the frame of the vehicle to lift a corner or side of the vehicle.

A jack support apparatus has an outer tube having an outer tube body with an outwardly-extending outer tube jack cradle and an opposite outer tube opening, an inner tube having an inner tube body with a plurality of spaced-apart inner tube holes and an outwardly-extending inner tube jack cradle, the inner tube body slidably received within the outer tube body through the outer tube opening, the outer and inner tube jack cradles configured to each selectively engage one of the wheel axle and the cup axle of the jack, a tube spring operable between the outer tube body and the inner tube body to bias the outer tube and the inner tube apart, and a pin operable through an outer tube hole for selectively engaging any of the plurality of inner tube holes, the pin being biased inwardly toward the inner tube by a pin spring.

An accessory mount/holder in the form of a tool holder having a ridged member that has been specially shaped to hold one or two long handles tools without excessive movement of the tools while they are stored.

A production method of a vehicle support device including: making a symmetrical thread structure by pressing on both sides of a round steel, to obtain a twin-screw rod; making a through hole in the steel block which the twin-screw rod can go through, and making internal threads in the through hole that match with the twin-screw rod by stamping to obtain an adjusting block; rotating the two adjusting blocks respectively along the ends of the twin-screw rod to the middle of the same so that the two adjusting blocks are mounted onto both sides of the twin-screw rod; making a movable frame, and fixing it with two adjusting blocks; and making a spanner and fixing it to one end or the middle of the twin-screw rod.

An article of manufacture for providing a mobile jack rack supporting a plurality of uses is disclosed. The mobile jack rack has a tow bar for coupling to a vehicle trailer towing receiver, an upper support platform having a front side coupled to the tow bar and a plurality of sliding support flanges coupled to an upper side, a manual scissor jack coupled to an underside of the upper support platform, the manual scissor jack having a manual hand crank, a lower support base having a top side coupled to an opposite side of the manual scissor jack, a steering bar hinge coupled between the manual hand crank and the manual scissor jack to position the manual hand crank in an orientation allowing the manual hand crank to be used as a steering bar, a plurality of locking wheels coupled to an underside of the lower support platform, and a component coupled to the plurality of support flanges.
