  • Patent number: 6598855
    Abstract: A lift apparatus includes a base frame having a pair of ground engaging caster assemblies and an upwardly extending center post, and a pair of folding legs each having an inner end pivotally connected to the base frame and an outer end with a roller attached thereto, the casters and the rollers permitting the lift apparatus to roll across the ground surface. A parallelogram linkage includes a portion of the center post and is attached to vehicle support arms. An actuator is connected between the linkage and the base frame. A pumping handle and a power unit are connected to the actuator for selectively activating the actuator to selectively raise and lower the vehicle support arms between a lowered position for engaging and disengaging from a vehicle and a fully raised position a predetermined distance above the ground on which the base frame rests. The legs and the support arms can be moved to a compact storage position when not in use.
