This invention relates to vehicle lift which comprises:

Vehicle lift and a method for lifting vehicles

A description is provided of a volumetric operating system ( ) for scissors-type vehicle lifts, comprising a plurality of cylinders ( ) for movement of the vehicle lifting runways ( ), of which the main cylinders ( ) receive the operating fluid directly from supply means ( ), and the secondary cylinders ( ) receive the operating fluid from the outlet ( ) of a respective one of the main cylinders ( ), wherein with each runway ( ) there is associated at least one of the said main cylinders ( ), and at least one of the said secondary cylinders ( ). Preferably, the outlet of each main cylinder ( ) which is associated with one of the runways ( ) supplies a secondary cylinder ( ) which is associated with the other runway ( ).

Volumetric operating system for vehicle lifts

The invention concerns an apparatus and a method for the chassis measurement of vehicles such as motor vehicles, wherein the apparatus includes a vehicle lift platform with which a chassis to be measured can be reversibly lifted and an axle measurement lifting device with which an axle measuring unit can be reversibly lifted. The axle measurement lifting device has at least two lifting stages which are actuable reversibly independently of each other.

Chassis measuring apparatus and method of measuring a chassis

A description is provided of a vehicle lift ( ) of the type with four columns, in which the vertical movement of the cross-beams ( ) and of the runways ( ) along the columns ( ) is controlled by means of two pistons ( ), each of which is accommodated inside a respective cross-beam ( ), of which it controls the movement. The lift ( ) provides considerably simplified assembly, and the possibility of replacing or displacing the runways ( ).

Vehicle lift of the type with four columns

A description is provided of a scissors-type vehicle lift ( ), in which the arms ( ) of the scissors have a transverse cross-section substantially in the shape of a &ldquo;P&rdquo;, the cross-sections of the arms of adjacent pairs of arms being overturned relative to one another, such that when the scissors are closed, the said transverse cross-sections partially fit into one another.
