Abstract

The present invention relates to a single axis tracking support for solar panels, comprising a framework that forms an approximately trapezoidal base having at least two opposite sides that are approximately parallel to one another, characterized in that said framework is equipped with foldable support frames that are approximately parallel to one another and are each intended to receive a solar panel, said support frames each comprising two end feet that are able to receive a solar panel and together define a rotation axis of said panel, said end feet being mounted in a foldable manner on the parallel sides of the framework.
