Bottle jacks:
Bottle jacks are also known as hand jacks, they became popular in the
early 1900s when the automobile industry began to take off. They are
portable and they serve a great purpose for individuals to lift a vehicle
for roadside inspection or service. It is named bottle jack because it’s
designed in the shape of a milk bottle. Today’s bottle jacks have the
capability of lifting from one hundred pounds to several tons, although
they range in size.
Leveling jacks:
These types of jacks make use of mechanical screw mechanisms. They
are portable and often used to level trailers, RVs, etc.
Scissor jacks:
Scissor jacks are compact jacks that use a mechanical screw. The screw
rotation results in the raising and lowering of a set of scissoring arms
that extend or retract depending on the position of the screw mechanism.
Screw jacks:
Screw jacks are mechanical jacks that use a vertical screw mechanism to
lift and lower the load. Some are designed to be wrench adjustable while
others make use of a level inserted through a hole in the jack. This
allows additional mechanical advantage to using when turning the screw
lift the load.
Ratchet jacks:
These types of jacks make use of a pawl and ratchet mechanism for
raising or lifting a load. At a point in time, ratchet jacks were the
standard types of jack automobile manufacturers include with their
vehicles for owners to use for changing flat tires.
7) When using the jack, first place the hydraulic cylinder, and then
tighten the oil drain screw on the hydraulic pump to work. To make the
piston rod descend, loosen the handwheel of the manual hydraulic pump
slightly counterclockwise, the hydraulic cylinder is unloaded, and the
piston rod gradually descends. Otherwise, it will be dangerous to
descend too fast.
9) Due to the small lifting stroke of the jack, the rated stroke should not
be exceeded during use to avoid damage to the jack.
10) During the use process, the violent vibration of the jack should be
avoided (for example, when the jack is loaded, hit the workpiece with a
hammer)
3) Hydraulic jacks use oil as the medium, and maintenance of the oil and
equipment must be done well to avoid blockage or oil leakage, which
will affect the use effect.
(3) Do not overload, do not exceed the rated height. When a red line
appears on the sleeve, it indicates that the rated height has been reached
and the jacking should be stopped.
(4) When several hydraulic jacks are working at the same time, they
should be directed by a special person to make the lifting or lowering
synchronously. Wooden blocks should be supported between two
adjacent hydraulic jacks to ensure the interval prevent sliding.
(5) When using the hydraulic jack, always pay attention to the sealing
part and the pipe joint part, and they must be safe and reliable.
(6) Hydraulic jacks are not suitable for places with acid, alkali, or
corrosive gas.
Advantages:
Below are the benefits of hydraulic jacks in their various applications.
Disadvantages:
Despite the good advantages of hydraulic jacks, some limitations still
occur. Below are the disadvantages of hydraulic jacks in their various
applications.
Conclusion
Hydraulic jacks are mechanical devices used to lift heavyweight. They
are commonly used in automobile industries to lift vehicles from the
ground, which is why they are known as a kind of hydraulic car jack.
The force of hydraulic jacks can be calculated with pascal’s law. That is
all for this article, where the definition, applications, components,
diagram, types, working, advantages, and disadvantages of hydraulic
jack are being discussed.
