INTRODUCTION
A jack is a mechanical device which uses a screw
thread or a hydraulic cylinder to lift heavy loads or
apply great linear forces.
The most common forms of jacks available in the
market are ,Scissor car jacks. House jacks,
Hydraulic jacks, Pneumatic jacks and Strand jacks
that are extensively used in Construction,
Industrial.
Classification of jack
Jack can be categorized based on the type of force the employ
as follow ,
Mechanical Jacks and
Hydraulic Jacks
Types of mechanical jacks are
a) Scissor jack
b) House jack
Types of hydraulic jacks are
a. Floor jack
b. Bottle jack
Scissor jack
A scissor jack is a device which is used to lift heavy
vehicles, partially or fully from the ground for changing the
tire and for maintenance purpose.
Scissor jack includes one power screw which is rotating, two
fixed nuts, four links which is connected to nuts, eight pins
used to fixed that four links, two rings provided at screw end
and load platform supported by upper two links.
In recent time, several types of car jacks are available for
lifting vehicles.
CONT…
However available car jacks are either manually operated or
using external power operated.
A scissor jack is operated with the help of power screw which
is in rotary or turning motion.
Scissor jack is a mechanism made up of nut and bolt
arrangement and its principle of working is same as that of
inclined plane.
PROBLEM STATEMENT
We found that the scissor jack was very difficult to be used
because this type of jack needed more strength and energy to
operate this jack.
Thus, a project has been conducted to find the solution on how
to design a scissor jack for the car using the simplest and
cheapest way while it is energy saved .
Scissor jack present difficulties for the elderly, women and are
especially.
CONT…
available jacks are typically large, heavy and also difficult to
store, transport, carry or move into the proper position under
an automobile.
Suppose car jacks must be easy to use for pregnant women or
whoever have problem with the tire in the middle of nowhere.
The purpose of this project is to encounter these problems.

GENERAL OBJECTIVE
The general objective of our project is to design,model and
analyze the scissor jack to lift up to a height of 355mm and
with the carrying capacity of 2000k.g.
CONT…
SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES
To design each components of scissor jack.
To make the scissor jack easy to operate with minimal
Data Book and after that we have studied the different stresses
different materials.
CONT…
The mechanism was analyzed numerically, at maximum lift
height of 355mm.
MATERIALS
Power Screws
A power screw is advice used in machinery to change rotary
motion in to linear and usually, to transmit power.
CONT …
This must have adequate strength to with stand axial load and
the applied torque.
We select ASTM A36AMild steel.
Connecting member
These fasteners as used to fully transfer the applied load from
the break, to the rivet, which connects the upper arm with the
fastener.
We select GS-52.3 cast steel
Base plate
The base plate should with stand the applied load plus the
whole component or linkage load by itself.
The force we have to select the material during the design
process in order to resist the above all loads.
We select the material steel alloy AISI-1040
Cup
parts
We select steel, a 1045 grade steel
DESIGN AND ANALYSIS OF THE
PROJECT
General design consideration
Type of load and stress caused by load
Convenient and economical features
Selection of material , it is important that the designer should
select appropriate and most important material.
By identifying characteristics of material like strength,
durability, flexibility, resistance to heat , machinability,
welded or hardness.

FORCE ANALYSIS
The force is based on assumption that the scissor lift loaded vertically symmetrical.

Then, F1 × – F2 × = 0 ,F2 = F1
Therefore, the force acting on each links are equal, F1 = F2 = F3
