Another example is CN223488144U, which discloses a residential folding angle-adjustable photovoltaic solar system bracket device, including a solar panel fixing module, a support module, and a bottom fixing module. The bottom fixing module is a square metal frame that is rotatably installed with the bottom of the adjustable support frame, allowing the bracket to be folded for storage. However, most of these folding brackets can only fold the solar panel bracket into a square frame structure and cannot be folded a second time. Summary of the Invention

[0017] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0018] This utility model provides a technical solution: Please see Figures 1 to 4 A foldable solar panel bracket includes a bottom support frame 1, a solar panel placement frame 2 rotatably mounted in the middle of the bottom support frame 1, a solar panel fixing component 5 mounted on the solar panel placement frame 2, and an angle adjustment component 3 provided at the connection between the solar panel placement frame 2 and the bottom support frame 1. The bottom support frame 1 includes two sets of support frame vertical rods 101 and two sets of support frame horizontal rods 102 rotatably connected to the support frame vertical rods 101. The two sets of support frame vertical rods 101 and the two sets of support frame horizontal rods 102 are parallelogram structures. The solar panel placement frame 2 includes two sets of placement frame vertical rods 201 that are rotatably connected to two sets of support frame vertical rods 101, and two sets of placement frame horizontal rods 202 that are rotatably connected to the placement frame vertical rods 201.
[0019] The placement frame vertical rod 201 is rotatably installed in the middle of the support frame vertical rod 101, and the length of the placement frame vertical rod 201 is greater than half the length of the support frame vertical rod 101.
[0020] A connecting pin 203 is provided at the connection between the vertical rod 201 and the horizontal rod 202 of the placement frame, and a connecting pin 203 is also provided at the connection between the vertical rod 201 of the placement frame and the vertical rod 101 of the support frame.
[0021] A connecting pin 104 is provided at the connection between the vertical rod 101 and the horizontal rod 102 of the support frame. A side fixing ear plate 103 is welded to the side of the two sets of vertical rods 101 away from the vertical center line of the bottom support frame 1.
[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, the two sets of support frame vertical rods 101 and the two sets of support frame horizontal rods 102 are rotatably connected by connecting pins 104, so that the bottom support frame 1 is compressed and folded inward, changing the original frame structure of the bottom support frame 1. The solar panel placement frame 2 can rotate on the same plane as the bottom support frame 1. At the same time, the placement frame vertical rods 201 and placement frame horizontal rods 202 are rotatably connected and can be folded inward as the bottom support frame 1 is compressed and folded. When not in use or during transportation, the entire foldable solar panel bracket can be folded inward, and the flat frame structure can be squeezed and folded inward, saving floor space.
[0023] Specifically, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the angle adjustment component 3 includes a support rod 304 that is rotatably connected to the vertical rod 201 of the placement frame. The surface of the vertical rod 201 of the support frame is provided with a plurality of equidistant and evenly distributed adjustment holes 301. A locking bolt 303 passes through the interior of the adjustment hole 301, and a connecting pin 302 is provided at the connection between the vertical rod 201 of the placement frame and the support rod 304.
[0024] The solar panel fixing assembly 5 includes a fixing hook 1 501 and a fixing hook 2 502 that are snapped onto two sets of support frame crossbars 102. The fixing hook 1 501 and the fixing hook 2 502 are arranged opposite to each other. Rubber blocks 505 are movably provided on the surface of the fixing hook 1 501 and the fixing hook 2 502. Locking bolts 2 504 pass through the inside of the fixing hook 1 501 and the fixing hook 2 502. Locking bolts 2 504 and locking bolt 1 303 are both threaded with locking hexagonal heads 503. The solar panel body 4 is installed between the fixing hook 1 501 and the fixing hook 2 502.
[0025] By adopting the above technical solution, the adjustment holes 301 are linearly distributed along the axis of the support frame vertical rod 101. One end of the support rod 304 is connected to the adjustment holes 301 at different positions. The locking bolt 303 is inserted into the support rod 304 and the adjustment hole 301. At this time, the other end of the support rod 304 rotates on the placement frame vertical rod 201, and the placement frame vertical rod 201 rotates on the support frame vertical rod 101. The angle between the bottom support frame 1 and the solar panel placement frame 2 is adjusted, thereby adjusting the elevation angle of the solar panel body 4.
[0026] Fixing hook 1 501 and fixing hook 2 502 are used in pairs, and multiple pairs can be installed, with a minimum of 4 pairs. They are used to install the solar panel body 4, which is located between fixing hook 1 501 and fixing hook 2 502. Depending on the thickness of the solar panel body 4, rubber blocks 505 are placed in the gap between fixing hook 1 501, fixing hook 2 502 and the solar panel body 4. The angle adjustment component 3 can be used to adjust the angle between the bottom support frame 1 and the solar panel placement frame 2, thereby adjusting the elevation angle of the solar panel body 4. In conjunction with fixing hook 1 501 and fixing hook 2 502, it can accommodate the installation of solar panel bodies 4 of different thicknesses.
[0027] Working principle: In use, pull apart the two sets of support frame vertical rods 101 and placement frame vertical rods 201 to open the bottom support frame 1 and solar panel placement frame 2, transforming the flat parallelogram into a rectangular structure. Then, rotate the solar panel placement frame 2 to position it above the bottom support frame 1, forming a certain angle with it. One end of the support rod 304 is connected to the adjustment holes 301 at different positions. Insert the locking bolt 303 into the support rod 304 and the adjustment hole 301. 1. At this time, the other end of the support rod 304 rotates on the vertical rod 201 of the placement frame, and the vertical rod 201 of the placement frame rotates on the vertical rod 101 of the support frame. Adjust the angle between the bottom support frame 1 and the solar panel placement frame 2. Fixing hook 1 501 and fixing hook 2 502 are used in pairs and connected to the horizontal rod 202 of the placement frame by locking bolt 2 504. The solar panel body 4 is placed between fixing hook 1 501 and fixing hook 2 502, and rubber block 505 is placed in the gap to press against the solar panel body 4.
