Hydraulic jacks can be classified into several types based on their structure and application:
Vertical jacks: The most common type, with a columnar structure, widely used in automotive repair.
Horizontal jacks: Also known as "garage jacks," they are lower in height and suitable for use in low-chassis areas.
Separate jacks: The pump station and lifting cylinder are separate, connected by high-pressure oil pipes, suitable for space-constrained applications.
Screw jacks: Although the name includes "hydraulic," they are actually mechanical and often classified alongside hydraulic jacks, using a self-locking screw principle.
Bridge jacks: Designed specifically for automobiles, usually included with vehicles, with a simple and lightweight structure.
Large-tonnage jacks: With lifting forces of hundreds of tons or more, used in large-scale projects such as bridges and construction.
