Abstract
Description
[Technical field]
[0001] This invention relates to an auxiliary tool for jacking up a car to change tires. [Background technology]
[0002] Conventional tire changing aids have a complex structure and are heavy, making them unsuitable for mounting in a vehicle. They are also difficult to operate, require one hand to keep pushing down the aid, making it impossible to use both hands, making it difficult to stop the tire in the correct position, and requiring the vehicle to be raised higher. The higher the vehicle is, the greater the danger; ideally, a 2cm lift would be sufficient. [Prior art documents]

[0004] To provide a tire changing aid which is lighter than conventional products, can be loaded onto a passenger car, and has an easier-to-operate structure. [Means for solving the problem]
[0005] Form any metal round bar into the U-shaped parts 1a, 1b, and 1c with an inner width of 24 cm and a depth of 70 cm. 5a and 5b, which are support parts made by welding a round bar to a short pipe, are passed through the U-shaped parts, then the fasteners 4a and 4b, the pipes for rotating the tires 3a and 3b, and the fasteners 2a and 2b are passed through.
[0006] A round bar 6 is welded to any position from 1c to maintain the shape of the U-shaped component. Effect of the Invention
[0007] This makes tire changing easier. [Brief description of the drawings]
[0008] [Figure 1] Front perspective view of the U-shaped member and the support [Diagram 2] Left View DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
[0009] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. EXAMPLES
[0010] Align the top and bottom of the highest bolt on the vehicle hub side with the bolt hole of the tire to be installed, make 5a and 5b parallel to the ground, pass 1a and 1b through the side of tire 7, lift 1c and move it up and down or left and right to push the bolt into the bolt hole.
[0011] Temporarily secure it with nuts, remove the device, and shake the tire from side to side with both hands and the rest will easily fit.
[0012] If you are having trouble aligning the bolts the first time, move 5a and 5b forward to raise the tire up and hold it still, and then use both hands to turn the tire using pipes 3a and 3c, or move 1c left and right to make an adjustment.
[0013] The key is to initially align the highest bolt and the bolt hole vertically. [Industrial Applicability]
[0014] The invention may be used by tire change businesses or individuals. [Explanation of symbols]
