Abstract (en)

A lifter for repairing a vehicle has a base (1) having a supporting post (2), an upper arm (3) and a lower arm (4) pivotally attached to the supporting post (2), a jack (5) pivotally connected to the lower arm (4), and an L-shaped rack (6) pivotally attached to distal ends of the upper arm (3) and lower arm (4) and having a top plate (7) and a hook (8) mounted on the L-shaped rack (6). Wherein, the L-shaped rack (6) is adapted to combine a workpiece and enables to change orientations to make operation of the lifter versatile in supporting or hanging state. Additionally, a positioning plate (9) is pivotally attached to a joint of the upper arm (3) and the supporting post (2) and has a channel (911) with multiple dents (91). The lower arm (4) has a penetrating pin (51) received in the channel (911) to operationally engage with a corresponding one of the multiple dents (91) to provide a locking efficiency to keep the lifter stable during operation.
