Abstract:
1. A jack comprising: a first tube containing a first threaded member being rotatably held within said first tube and fixed from axial movement relative to said first tube, said first tube including a push block near an upper end of said first tube through which said first threaded member rotates, said push block being fixed to said first tube; a second tube telescopically contained within said first tube having a push block near an upper end of said second tube through which said first threaded member rotates, said push block being fixed to said second tube, said second tube having female threads engaging said first threaded member such that rotation of said first threaded member causes said second tube to slide axially within said first tube; a threaded tube having external threads and an inner diameter larger than said first threaded member and said threaded tube being telescopically slidable over said first threaded member, said threaded tube including a slot, said first threaded member including a pin for engaging said slot in said second threaded member for synchronous rotation with said threaded tube and said threaded tube being movable axially relative to said first threaded member, said threaded tube being fixed from axial movement relative to said second tube; a third tube is telescopically contained within said second tube having female threads engaging said second threaded member such that rotation of said first and second threaded members causes said third tube to slide axially within said second tube; and said first, said second, and said third tubes being fixed from rotation relative to each other.
