摘要

The present invention relates to a mobile lifting column for lifting a vehicle, and system and method therefor. The lifting system (2) according to the invention comprises: - a frame with a moveable carrier (18) configured for carrying the vehicle (6); - a drive (20) which acts on the carrier and is configured for raising and/or lowering the carrier relative to the frame; - a displacement mechanism (14) configured for positioning the lifting column; and - a controller configured for controlling movement of the carrier, wherein the displacement mechanism (14) comprises a displacement frame comprising a housing (38), a wheel (12) that can be moved relative to this frame between a displacement and a stationary position, a counter force element, and a steering handle (44) that is operatively coupled to the wheel with a linkage mechanism that is configured for moving the wheel relative to this frame.
