The present invention relates to a tool for removing drive shafts from transmissions. In at least one embodiment, the present invention may remove a propeller shaft from an outboard engine. The present invention includes a upper housing, a lower housing and an inner guide conduit system, a portion of each define a jack support chamber and a viewing chamber, wherein the jack support chamber is adapted to house a hollow body jack and the viewing chamber is adapted to provide a view of the shaft while being removed from the shaft housing. One embodiment further includes an extension rod that may be secured at a first end to the drive shaft and secured at a second end to a piston of a hollow body jack so that when actuated the jack will remove the shaft from the shaft housing without damaging the engine or the gear housing.

Stabilizing devices and methods of use for stabilizing spreading tools are provided. The stabilizing device includes a base having a first surface and a second surface, a first tower extending from the first surface having a first aperture formed therein, a second tower extending from the first surface having a second aperture formed therein, wherein the second tower is separated from the first tower by a tower span configured to receive a portion of the spreading tool, an engagement pin removably receivable through the first and second apertures, extend across the tower span, and configured to engage with a portion of a spreading tool, and a rail extending from the first surface and configured to stop movement of a spreading tool that is engaged with the engagement pin between the first and second towers.

The present invention proposes a silent, safe, fast, multi-purpose and easy-to-service lifting mechanism. For this purpose, the mechanism comprises: a telescopic mast with a fixed segment (11) and a first telescopic segment (12) mounted so as to slide inside the fixed segment; a rack (13) having a set width and provided with teeth (131), which is attached to the first telescopic segment; a gear system comprising: a pinion (21) directly meshed with the rack, a driving shaft (22) which meshes with the pinion and is attached to a steering wheel, a reversible locking means for the driving shaft, designed to lock the driving shaft against rotation as long as no action is taken by a user.

An ATV jack may include a clamping engagement member and a leg which pivots which respect to the clamping engagement member a limited amount to enable the jack to lift and hold an ATV. The leg may telescope to allow the jack to be used at variable heights.

A floor mounting tooling and mounting device, the floor mounting tooling includes: a telescopic member; a hook, which is pivotally provided on the telescopic member, the hook has an initial position on the telescopic member, a hook portion is provided on a side of the hook proximate to the telescopic member, the hook portion is used to fit into the engaging slot to hook the floor, and the hook is configured to be rotatable within a defined angle range with respect to the engaging slot; an elastic member, which is provided between the hook and the telescopic member, and the elastic member is configured to drive the hook to rotate toward the initial position.

An apparatus for lifting vehicles includes a runway, a base, an actuation assembly, a first armature assembly, a second armature assembly, and a third armature assembly. The runway is designed to vertically lift a vehicle from a lowered position to a raised position. The runway is connected to the third armature assembly. In turn, the third armature assembly is connected to the actuation assembly, which is pivotally fixed to the base. The first and second armature assemblies also connect the base with the third armature assembly. The actuation assembly is configured to lift the third armature assembly, which is guided by both the first armature assembly and second armature assembly. In response to the actuation assembly, the third armature assembly then forces the runway from the lowered position to the raised position, thereby lifting the vehicle.

A rotating shaft lifting jig is inserted between a rotating shaft of a rotary machine and a bearing stand surrounding the outer periphery of at least a lower part of the rotating shaft. The jig for lifting the rotating shaft includes: a pedestal which is supported on an inner peripheral surface of the bearing stand; and a jack part which is disposed between the pedestal and the outer peripheral surface of the rotating shaft and extends/contracts in the radial direction. The radial dimension of the pedestal is smaller than a radial clearance between the rotating shaft and the bearing stand. A rotor receiver having a cylindrical surface conforming to the outer peripheral surface of the rotating shaft is provided between the jack part and the rotating shaft. The rotor receiver is provided with a plurality of support members in directions different from the direction of the jack part.

A hand lift system for positioning a wheel and tire to be placed on a vehicle hub, the system being made up of two primary components. A first paddle component provides a shovel shaped lever to be placed under the tire to be lifted up to the vehicle hub, with a handle grip to operate the lever arm. A second component provides a solid wedge chock on which the paddle component is placed to act as a fulcrum to the paddle component lever, or to act as a support once the tire is lifted to the appropriate height. The paddle component doubles as a tool for shifting the spare tire or flat tire into place. The chock component doubles as a wheel block for either a tire still on the vehicle or a spare tire that has been rolled to the side of the vehicle for use.
