Abstract:
1. A traction jack apparatus, comprising: a first plate, wherein said first plate comprises a rigid and rectangular surface capable of supporting said vehicle, wherein said first plate is permanently covered in an anti-slip, high traction surface with a high coefficient of friction for frictional engagement with said tire of said vehicle; a hinge assembly attached to said first plate; a second plate attached to said hinge assembly, wherein said hinge assembly provides a rotational range of motion and articulated adjustability between said first plate and said second plate for positioning said traction jack between a tire of a vehicle and a surface; and a vehicle jack attached to said first plate and in contact with a surface of said second plate when said vehicle lack is extended, wherein said vehicle jack comprises at least one of a bottle jack, a telescoping jack, a floor jack, or a hydraulic jack, wherein said vehicle jack extends an angle between said first plate and said second plate from a closed position to a partially-opened position or a fully-opened position to provide a ramp to assist said tire of said vehicle when said tire of said vehicle is stuck on said surface, wherein said second plate is folded at said hinge assembly to expose a high traction surface covering said first plate to a surface of said vehicle tire.
