[0035] The working principle of the ground support 100 in the embodiment of the utility model is as follows: Figures 1 to 4 As shown, when it is necessary to adjust the unfolding angle of the reinforcing mechanism 2 according to the actual placement environment, such as the ground flatness, space layout and other factors, first, the limiting rod 29 is pulled upward to make it disengage from the through hole 12 in the current position of the bottom plate 1, the operator manually rotates the rotating block 21, because the sliding block 22 is guided by the inclined groove 211 of the rotating block 21 and is limited by the guide groove 11 on the bottom plate 1, with the rotation of the rotating block 21, the four groups of sliding blocks 22 slide along the inclined groove 211, and at the same time, move towards each other or away from each other in the guide groove 11 on the bottom plate 1, the movement of the sliding block 22 is transmitted by the hinged rod 23, which pushes the rotating column 24 hinged thereto to unfold or fold around the hinge point 241, so as to change the angle of the rotating column 24 relative to the bottom plate 1, when the rotating column 24 is rotated to the appropriate unfolding angle, the limiting rod 29 is loosened and is reset by the elastic action of the limiting spring 28, so that the bottom end is inserted into the corresponding through hole 12 on the surface of the bottom plate 1, the current position of the rotating block 21 pushing the rotating column 24 to unfold is fixed by this insertion mode, thereby ensuring that the angle of the rotating column 24 is not changed at will; then, the threaded rod 26 is rotated, based on the threaded transmission principle, the threaded rod 26 will make threaded movement in the axial direction downward in the inner wall of the connecting block 25, pushing the bottom end fixedly connected support plate 27 to move towards the ground, until the support plate 27 is in close contact with the ground, at this time, the four groups of support plates 27 jointly act, increasing the contact area of the ground support whole with the ground, and effectively dispersing the pressure on the support from the vehicle and the like, significantly enhancing the stability of the ground support placed on the ground, laying a solid foundation for subsequent support vehicle maintenance operation.

[0036] With the increase of use time or frequent vehicle maintenance operation, the hard rubber on the surface of the top plate 6 can be worn, which affects the friction with the bottom of the vehicle and the overall stability, when the top plate 6 needs to be replaced, the operator only needs to manually pull the plug rod 51 outward, so that the plug rod 51 overcomes the elastic force of the reset spring 52, slides outward in the inner wall of the fixed block 4, until the plug rod 51 is disengaged from the plug-in cooperation with the positioning hole 63, at this time, the top plate 6 can be easily taken off from the top end of the fixed block 4, then a new top plate 6 can be installed, this quick release design greatly facilitates the maintenance and replacement operation of the parts, ensures that the foot support can continuously maintain good use performance, meets the long-term stable demand of vehicle maintenance work.
