ABSTRACT:
The following specification discloses a mobile home support having means for supporting a mobile home during earthquake tremors and wind storms to prevent the collapse thereof. The support comprises an axle support which supports the normally spring weight and is formed from a plate supported by upright stanchions for purposes of accommodating the bolts or lugs of the wheel drums of the mobile home. The stanchions are braced with cross members in angular relationship for purposes of allowing cross lateral stresses to be absorbed within the structure on a basis providing both lateral and axial support. The axle of the mobile home is attached to the cross members with a bracket, thereby creating a cross linked stress support in angularly oriented relationship providing support under the normally sprung load of the mobile home in combination with the axle. A front support at the area where the towing tongue of the mobile home is normally provided is formed with cross stress members going between two stanchions underlying the tongue area of the mobile home and is braced by a longitudinal angular stress member having a bracket for attachment to a rail or frame of the mobile home. The foregoing bracing is adjustable, depending upon the size and characteristics of the mobile home by means of adjustable brackets and heights through different bolt holes.
