FIELD OF THE DISCLOSURE
[0001] The present invention relates generally to the field of a vehicle handling and recovery equipment, and more particularly to a recovery assistance trolley to facilitate movement of a breakdown vehicle.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0002] The subject matter discussed in the background section should not be assumed to be prior art merely as a result of its mention in the background section. Similarly, a problem mentioned in the background section or associated with the subject matter of the background section should not be assumed to have been previously recognized in the prior art. The subject matter in the background section merely represents different approaches, which in and of themselves may also correspond to implementations of the claimed technology.
[0003] In vehicle testing environments, particularly on controlled test tracks, breakdown or immobilization of test vehicles is a common operationa , Claims:I/We claim,
1. A recovery assistance trolley (100) to facilitate movement of a breakdown vehicle, the trolley (100) comprising:
a jack base structure (102) configured to provide a load-bearing support foundation;
an extension structure (104) or one or more rods operatively coupled with the jack base structure (102) and adjustable in height,
wherein a locking pin (112) configured to selectively secure the extension structure (104) relative to the jack base structure (102) at a desired height,
an axle resting area (106) provided on an upper portion of the extension structure (104) and configured to receive and support an axle of a disabled vehicle;
a knuckle arm assembly (108) associated with the axle resting area (106) and arranged to support the system while enabling articulated movement of the supported vehicle portion;
a plurality of wheels (110) mounted to the jack base structure (102), configured to provide translational movement of the trolley (100); and
wherein the trolley (100) is adapted to lift, s
