Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to automobile repair machinery, and more particularly to a lifting device for automobile repair. Background Technology
[0002] When repairing a car, the parts being repaired are usually located in special positions such as the bottom of the vehicle. Repairs often require lifting the car. Existing lifting equipment mostly uses single mobile jacks as repair tools or as larger pieces of equipment. A jack is a small lifting device that uses a rigid lifting component as its working device, lifting heavy objects within its stroke through a top support or bottom claw. Jacks are mainly used in factories, mines, transportation, and other departments for vehicle repair and other lifting and supporting work. Their structure is lightweight, sturdy, flexible, and reliable, and can be carried and operated by one person. Hydraulic jacks are based on Pascal's principle, which states that the pressure is uniform throughout a fluid. Therefore, in a balanced system, a smaller piston applies less pressure, while a larger piston applies more pressure, thus maintaining the fluid's stillness. Therefore, through the transmission of fluid pressure, different pressures can be obtained at different ends, achieving a transformation. However, existing hydraulic jacks have weak piston load capacity and are prone to oil leaks and damage. Summary of the Invention

Detailed Implementation
[0014] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings:
[0015] See attached document Figure 1This embodiment 1 describes a lifting device for automobile repair, comprising an oil tank 100, an oil cylinder 200, and an oil pump 300. An oil suction pipe 210 is provided between the input end of the oil pump 300 and the oil tank 100, and a first one-way valve 310 is provided on the oil suction pipe 210. An oil discharge pipe 220 is provided between the output end of the oil pump 300 and the oil cylinder 200, and a second one-way valve 320 is provided on the oil discharge pipe 220. A return pipe 110 is provided between the oil cylinder 200 and the oil tank 100, and a shut-off valve 120 is provided on the return pipe 110. The oil pump 300 includes a lever 330, a pump body 340, and a plunger 350. The lever 330 is rotatably connected to the pump body 340, and the pump body 340 is slidably connected to the plunger 350. A lifting transmission mechanism 360 is provided between the upper end of the plunger 350 and the lever 330. The characteristic feature is that an end cap 1 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the oil tank 100. 30. A piston plate 140 is slidably and sealed inside the oil storage tank 100. A lifting airbag 150 is provided between the piston plate 140 and the end cover 130. A venting pipe 151 is provided on the lifting airbag 150. An air valve 152 is provided on the venting pipe 151. The oil cylinder 200 includes a piston rod 230, a piston body 240 and a cylinder body 250. A fixed pulley 131 is rotatably installed on the end cover 130. A pull rope 132 is installed on the fixed pulley 131. The two ends of the pull rope 132 are fixedly connected to the piston plate 140 and the piston body 240, respectively. A pressing air pump 153 is fixedly installed on the lower side of the lever 330. The pressing air pump 153 is provided with an air inlet 154 and an air outlet 155. A third one-way valve 156 is provided on the air inlet 154. An air supply pipe 157 is provided between the air outlet 155 and the lifting airbag 150. A fourth one-way valve 158 is provided on the air supply pipe 157.
[0016] Working principle: In use, place the device under the vehicle, then crank lever 330. Lever 330, through lifting transmission mechanism 360, drives plunger 350 to reciprocate vertically on pump body 340. When plunger 350 moves upward, hydraulic oil in oil tank 100 is drawn into pump body 340 through oil suction pipe 210. When plunger 350 moves downward, hydraulic oil in pump body 340 is pumped into cylinder 250 through oil discharge pipe 220, causing piston 240 to move upward, pushing piston rod 230 to extend and lift the vehicle. First check valve 310 and second check valve 320 prevent hydraulic oil backflow. During this process, the liquid level in the oil tank 100 gradually decreases, causing the piston plate 140 to slowly move downwards. The piston plate 140 pulls the pull rope 132 downwards, and the pull rope 132, after being reversed by the fixed pulley 131, generates an upward pulling force on the piston body 240. At the same time, the lever 330 continuously presses the pressing air pump 153. The pressing air pump 153 draws in air through the air inlet 154 and pumps it out through the air outlet 155. The gas is input into the lifting airbag 150 through the air supply pipe 157. The lifting airbag 150 expands in volume and further presses down the piston plate 140. The above three forces converge and act on the piston body 240 and the piston rod 230, greatly improving the load capacity of the hydraulic jack, which can lift heavier vehicles. Moreover, the load on the piston body 240 can be distributed to the lifting airbag 150 and the piston plate 140, making it less likely for oil leakage and damage to occur at the piston body 240. The third check valve 156 and the fourth check valve 158 prevent gas backflow. After use, opening the shut-off valve 120 and the air valve 152 causes the piston rod 230 to move down to release pressure and reset. The hydraulic oil in the cylinder 250 flows back to the oil tank 100 through the return pipe 110, and the gas in the lifting airbag 150 is released into the atmosphere through the vent pipe 151. After closing the shut-off valve 120 and the air valve 152 again, the equipment can be put back into use.
[0017] Example 2 differs from Example 1 only in that, to achieve the simultaneous opening and closing of the shut-off valve 120 and the air valve 152, the shut-off valve 120 includes a valve body 121, a valve seat 122, and a reset bolt 123. The valve seat 122 is located in the return pipe 110, and the inner end of the reset bolt 123 is sealed to the valve seat 122. The reset bolt 123 is threadedly connected to the valve body 121. The vent pipe 151 has a vent port 159. The air valve 152 is a plug, and the outer end of the plug is rotatably connected to the outer end of the reset bolt 123. When the reset bolt 123 is screwed in, the inner end of the reset bolt 123 seals with the valve seat 122 to cut off the return pipe 110, and the reset bolt 123 presses the plug into the vent port 159, thus sealing the vent pipe 151. When the reset bolt 123 is unscrewed, the inner end of the reset bolt 123 separates from the valve seat 122, opening the return pipe 110; the reset bolt 123 stops pressing the plug, and the plug automatically falls off the vent 159, thus opening the vent pipe 151.
[0018] Example 3 differs from Example 1 only in that, to make the equipment structure more compact and the force distribution more balanced, the cylinder 250 is located inside the oil storage tank 100, which reduces the size of the equipment. The piston plate 140 has an annular structure, and its inner hole is slidably sealed to the outer wall of the cylinder 250, which improves the positioning accuracy of the piston plate 140. The end cap 130 is slidably connected to the piston rod 230, which improves the positioning accuracy of the piston rod 230. The end cap 130 has at least two sets of fixed pulleys 131 distributed circumferentially, which ensures that the piston rod 230 is subjected to uniform force.
[0019] Example 4 differs from Example 1 only in that, for greater effort reduction and improved work efficiency, the lifting transmission mechanism 360 includes a driving gear 361 and a driven rack 362. The lever 330 is fixedly connected to the driving gear 361, the driving gear 361 meshes with the driven rack 362, and the driven rack 362 is fixedly connected to the plunger 350. (See attached diagram) Figure 1 As shown, when lever 330 swings downward, the driving gear 361 engages with the driven rack 362, causing the plunger 350 to move upward. The upward movement of the plunger 350 is the oil suction stroke. Simultaneously, lever 330 presses down on the press pump 153, causing the lifting airbag 150 to expand and push the piston plate 140 downward, promoting the flow of hydraulic oil from the oil reservoir 100 into the pump body 340. Similarly, when lever 330 swings upward, the press pump 153 springs up to draw in air, and the plunger 350 moves downward to pump hydraulic oil into the oil pump 300. Since the press pump 153 generally has a return spring inside, it can reduce effort.
[0020] Example 5 differs from Example 1 only in that, to achieve self-locking and safety functions, the fourth one-way valve 158 is located on the air outlet 155, and the air supply pipe 157 and the air vent pipe 151 are interconnected and equipped with a three-way reversing lock-up valve 260. The three-way reversing lock-up valve 260 serves as a safety device. When the valve core of the three-way reversing lock-up valve 260 rotates, it can simultaneously cut off the connection between the air outlet 155, the air supply pipe 157, and the air vent pipe 151. At this time, the air pump 153 cannot pump air, restricting the movement of the lever 330. The lifting airbag 150 also cannot deflate, restricting the movement of the piston plate 140. This prevents the piston rod 230 from falling due to accidental opening of the shut-off valve 120 and the air valve 152, thus avoiding the vehicle falling. The valve core of the three-way reversing lock-up valve 260 must be rotated first to connect the air outlet 155, the air supply pipe 157, and the air vent pipe 151 to achieve pressure relief, significantly improving the safety of equipment use.
[0021] Example 6 differs from Example 1 only in that, in order to extend the life of the lifting airbag 150 and avoid problems such as interference, the lifting airbag 150 is equipped with a safety unloading valve 270. When the internal air pressure of the lifting airbag 150 is too high, the safety unloading valve 270 can release the internal pressure to prevent the lifting airbag 150 from bursting or being crushed, thus playing a protective role.
[0022] Example 7 differs from Example 1 only in that, to limit the rising height of the piston rod 230, the lower end of the piston rod 230 is provided with an end hole 231, and a height-limiting pipe 232 is slidably and sealingly connected within the end hole 231. A height-limiting hole 233 is provided on the upper side wall of the height-limiting pipe 232, and the lower end of the height-limiting pipe 232 is fixed and communicates with the interior of the oil storage tank 100. When the piston rod 230 rises to its highest point, the height-limiting hole 233 on the height-limiting pipe 232 protrudes from the lower end of the end hole 231, allowing hydraulic oil in the cylinder 250 to flow into the height-limiting pipe 232 through the height-limiting hole 233, and then flow back into the oil storage tank 100. When the piston rod 230 moves downward, the height-limiting hole 233 retracts into the end hole 231, thus achieving the height-limiting function of the piston rod 230. In addition, the height-limiting pipe 232 can also have certain oil storage, positioning, and damping functions.
[0023] The technical solutions of the above embodiments are highly compatible and can be freely combined or merged to derive more embodiments and develop products with different functional packages.
[0024] Although the present invention has been illustrated and described with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art will understand that various changes in form and detail are possible within the scope of the claims.
