<p>402,625. Hydraulic jacks for motor vehicles. LEBEL, L., Weedon, Quebec, Canada, and ROSENTHAL, J., Times Building, 42nd Street, New York, U.S.A. Feb. 13, 1933, No. 4392. Convention date, Feb. 13, 1932. [Class 79 (iii).] In lifting-jacks for automobiles and other vehicles of the type in which hydraulic jacks are mounted adjacent each wheel, there is employed a fluid distributor between the reservoir and the jacks, conduits from reservoir to distributor and back with valve control a valve control of fluid to the jacks and locking means to prevent unauthorized operation. The essential features of the invention reside (1) in the provision of a switch for controlling the electric starter motor of the engine which serves also for actuating the pump, and (2) in adapting the motor to actuate the pump when the motor rotates in the opposite direction to that for starting the engine. The switch controls the operation of a pump for forcing liquid from the reservoir to the distributor. As shown in Fig. 2 a lock controlled element 46 is, by the operation of a key inserted at 47, turned to close a valve 45 Fig. 3 connecting the distributor 38 with the fluid reservoir 72, and in addition to operate a contact 51. The circuit is closed through an arm 50 contact 51 brackets 53, 55 and contact plate 56 and by depression of one of a series of rods 44 engaging a corresponding contact plate 56, as indicated in Fig. 7. Depression of the rod also operates a ball valve 42 to open connection through a corresponding pipe 109 leading from the distributor to the particular jack to be operated. An electro magnetic switch 61 is also energised to cause a small current to flow through a switch 71 on the top of a float chamber or reservoir 72. Simultaneously with the above action the starter motor is actuated to pump fluid from the reservoir into the manifold 38 and to the particular jack to be extended. When sufficient liquid has been extracted from the reservoir the float thereof drops and breaks the circuit of the switch 71.</p> |
