Abstract: A jack comprises at least one lifting section with an upper platform and a lower platform. These platforms are mutually connected by rotationally attached arms. Each lifting section comprises a strut that is slidingly connected to the lower platform at a lower end and rotationally connected to the upper platform at an upper end. Each lifting section further comprises a linear drive to slide the lower end of the strut, wherein the direction of the sliding of the lower end of the strut is parallel to the longitudinal axis of the lifting section and to the lower platform. The linear drive preferably comprises a threaded rod rotationally attached to the lower platform and a gearbox, wherein torque source can be a drill. For lifting two-track vehicles, the jack can comprise a pair of connected lifting sections. For lifting single-track vehicles, the jack can comprise a bracket for a wheel and a ramp for a single-track vehicle.
