Rob, it's most certainly a bottle jack.  It's a "long ram" bottle jack.  
Common as hens' eggs (not teeth).

However, that doesn't disclose the purpose of the rachet-like attachment 
at the top -- which I suppose is for load locking, so it won't sag once 
the height has been established.  I think there may be a part missing.
