DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0005] The present invention elects to a hydraulic jack system that implements a series of hydraulic jacks on two sides of a lifting panel. The lifting panel is installed under the chassis of a motor vehicle and is aligned to appropriately enable the lifting of a wheel of the motor vehicle. Preferably, jacks are provided on two sides of the lifting panel and are installed through the use of mounting brackets. The control panel controls movement of a hydraulic pump that provides lifting power for each jack on the lifting panel. A power source is also provided that supplies power to the pump.

[0006] In reference to FIG. 1, a hydraulic jack system according to present invention is depicted. This hydraulic jack system includes a control panel 50 that controls a pump 35 installed on a lifting panel 20. The control panel 50 may be installed anywhere within the vehicle so that the user may have access thereto. The hydraulic pump 35 transfers hydraulic fluid to each respective hydraulic jack shown on the two sides of the lifting panel 20. A bracket 22 is used to attach each respective hydraulic jack into place. Hydraulic pumps 30a, 30b, 30c and 30d are evenly distributed on two sides of the lifting panel 20. As shown, each hydraulic jack includes a pedestal 10 preferably with a foot plate 15. An additional feature of the present invention is the power source 40 that may be in the form of a battery used to supply power to hydraulic pump 35. During use the user may activate a jack on the other side of the lifting panel in order to lift a particular area of the vehicle. Preferably the jacks are provided on two sides of the lifting panel however further jacks may be installed as needed to provide other lifting capability. The instant invention has been shown and described in what it considers to be the most practical and preferred embodiments. It is recognized, however, that departures may be made there from within the scope of the invention and that obvious modifications will occur to a person skilled in the art.
