Foldable Bracket Multi-Axis Folding to Reduce Lateral Space

The patent transitions from traditional linear/flat folding structures to a multi-dimensional folding mechanism where support rods and crossbars fold along multiple axes simultaneously. The support post integrates vertical and lateral folding movements, allowing the bracket to collapse into a compact three-dimensional configuration that minimizes lateral space occupation while maintaining structural integrity through spatial arrangement of folding components.

The patent implements a nested folding configuration where smaller structural components are positioned within the spatial envelope of larger components during the folded state. The support crossbars nest within the space defined by the support rods, and secondary support elements are arranged within the volumetric boundaries of primary structural members, achieving compact packaging while maintaining the necessary structural complexity for supporting stability when deployed.

The patent employs dynamic folding mechanisms with multiple rotatable joints and connecting members that enable smooth transitions between deployed and folded states. The support post incorporates telescopic sections and rotating connections that allow the bracket to adapt its configuration dynamically, maintaining structural integrity during folding operations while ensuring stable supporting performance when deployed through engineered joint geometries and connection mechanisms.
