A device for supporting at least one solar panel having a rectangular frame with two opposite struts, comprising:

• at least two support arrangements, each of which has a support bar including
• at least one first fastening element on one side of the support bar for securing one of the two opposite struts, and
• at least one support pivotally mounted on the support bar at a predetermined distance from the first fastening element, and including a free end having a second fastening element for securing the other of the two opposite struts lying opposite the one of the two opposite struts, the at least one support being in a form of a U-profile that has a base section and two legs opposite one another that extend away from the base section at a distance greater than a width of the support bar, so that when folded, the U-profile partially surrounds the support bar,
• wherein the second fastening element is formed of fastening sections that extend over the base section, each of which has a slot for engaging into the other of the two opposite struts, and
• the free end of the support has a securing section that extends from the base section and that is bent back in the direction toward the slots.
