Abstract
A supporting device for a rescue vehicle comprises two legs each of which has a footing plate (16) located near a lateral vehicle edge of the vehicle. The legs are capable of being swivelled from a transportation position to a supporting position. In order to create a light-weight supporting device which is nevertheless very effective in both the vertical and horizontal directions of towing, and easily retractable and accessible, the footing plates (16) are connected to the legs (13) so as to be capable of swivelling around a horizontal axis (30) and a vertical axis (31). Both footing plates (16) can be connected to each other to form a supporting shield.
