A through hole in the vertical direction is formed in one end of the supporting rod, and a vertically penetrating U-shaped groove is formed in the other end. A vertically penetrating U-shaped groove is formed in the end, away from the hanging rod, of the supporting rod, holes are formed in two ends of the folding rod, and the folding rod is connected with the supporting rod and the connecting rod in a pin and pin hole matched mode. The end, away from the connecting rod, of the connecting rod is connected with the installing plate, the dustproof cover is fixed to the installing plate, the problem that the displayer shakes and swings during traditional rope hanging is solved, the problem caused by the fact that a tester obscurely views the displayer and the safety problem brought by shaking are avoided, and the foldable cantilever type dustproof support is convenient to install and operate.
