The invention relates to a self-saving tool on a vehicle, which can be used as a jack on the vehicle at ordinary times and a self-saving light tool for drivers when the vehicle drops into pit or slides. The self-saving tool on the vehicle comprises a self-propelled jack and a wheel
retractor. The self-propelled jack consists of a reinforced shear type jack, an X-shaped folding frame, a connecting rod, an L-shaped lifting arm, an extending base, a traction
rope, a sleeve and a
caterpillar band. The wheel
retractor consists of L-shaped rods, arc-shaped connecting rods and a transmission
rope. When the vehicle drops into the pit, the reinforced shear type jack is used to jack the vehicle body, after the X-shaped folding frame is connected to the reinforced shear type jack, jacking is continuously carried out to enable rollers of the X-shaped folding frame to land and the reinforced shear type jack to
lift off, and then the traction
rope is used to connect the self-propelled jack with the vehicle body, so that the vehicle body can drive the self-propelled jack to move. When the wheel
retractor is needed to use, the L-shaped rods are attracted to a fixed nut of a
vehicle driving wheel, and connected by the arc-shaped rod to form a circular ring. Then the driving wheel rotates so that the transmission rope is winded in a groove of the circular ring, therefore, the traction force can be output.
