Design and Analysis of Trestle Hydraulic Jack Using Finite Element Method

A jack is a device that used to lift heavy loads for automobile vehicles by the application of a much smaller force. In this work designed a new type of hydraulic jack with trestle feature. The new model was designed based on numerical calculation with loading and no loading condition also FEA model of trestle hydraulic jack has been created using solid works software according to design values. The FEA model was meshed and analyzed with loading condition using FEA code ANSYS 15.0 software, finally concluded that trestle hydraulic jack is suitable for lifting the heavy load (up to 50,000 N) automobile vehicle.
