The invention is related to automobile repair and renovation, it deals with working on the components of the car that would most easily be accessed from the underside of the car. Many components of a modern car are more easily reachable through the underside of the car than through any other side, this creates a problem since the underside of the car is not easily accessible from the default state of most modern cars since the clearance between the ground and the underside of the car is too low for any access to most components of the car.
While previous patents for jack stands designs exist, a jack stand that uniquely saves space and can be held up at the same point where a car is lifted does not yet exist. This is a benefit as it makes a jack stand more versatile and easier to use.
The invention is a jack stand that folds in order to provide greater convenience than other jack stands by being able to be lifted from a point where a car can safely be lifted and held up at. This is done through a mechanism where both legs of the invention fold from a horizontal position into an increasingly vertical position as the car is lifted.
