Abstract: |
A dolly (10) for transporting a hydraulic vehicle jack (50) has a pair of elongate front arm members (12a, b) pivotally attached to cooperating ends of a pair of elongate rear arm members (34a, b) by a rod (30). The front arm members are mounted on wheels (22a, b) disposed pivotally to collars (13a, b) on the front arm member. An axle (42a, b) with a wheel (44a, b) is rotatingly disposed each rear arm member rods (40a, b) are attached to an inside surface of the front arm members and rear arm members. The dolly is used to move vehicle jacks that have been modified to have an aperture (62) and mounting rods (64, 66, 68) attached to outside walls thereof. The modified jack is then aligned between the arm members of the dolly so that the rods on the front arm members of the dolly are inserted into the aperture on the jack. Then, springs (28, 70, 72) are secured between the rods on the dolly to the rods on the jack. In this configuration, the handle (54) of the jack can be manipulated to transport the jack to a desired location. To further aid movement of the jack a pin can be placed through an aperture at a distal end of the handle of the jack and secured to the hitch of a vehicle for towing.
