A trunk jack includes a rectangular frame base having a left shoe and a
right shoe having a longitudinal track on their inner sides, a forward
end has a support plate, and a rearward end has a rear plate with an
aperture for receiving an actuator shaft. A screw-threaded actuator shaft
has a distal portion, and a proximal end extending through the aperture
of the rear plate. A lateral screw axel has a threaded aperture receiving
the distal end of the actuator shaft, and has its ends extending into the
respective left and right track of the shoes. Two parallel lift arms have
forward ends, and have rearward ends pivotally attached to the lateral
axel. Two connecting arms have forward ends pivotally attached to the
forward ends of the shoes, and have rearward ends pivotally attached on
the middle of the lift arms. A lifting plate is pivotally attached to the
forward ends of the lift arms.
