Abstract: Modular solar collector, comprising a first supporting stand, the first supporting stand having at its upper end a first pivot bearing point defining a pivotal axis, a second supporting stand, having at its upper end a second pivot bearing point of the pivotal axis, an intermediate supporting stand having at its upper end an intermediate pivot bearing point of the pivotal axis, a first solar collector unit comprising at least one solar collector panel and a first unit frame being pivotally mounted to the first pivot bearing point and an intermediate pivot bearing point, and a second solar collector unit comprising at least one solar collector panel and a second unit frame being pivotally mounted to the second pivot bearing point and an intermediate pivot bearing point, a pivotal drive assembly comprising an x-drive unit and an x-coupling wherein each unit frame is, mechanically coupled to its adjacent unit frame.

Abstract: The invention relates to a modular solar collector arrangement, comprising a first supporting stand at a first end of the solar collector arrangement, the first supporting stand having at its upper end a first pivot bearing point defining a pivotal axis extending in longitudinal direction of the solar collector arrangement, a second supporting stand at a second end of the solar collector arrangement opposite to the first end in the longitudinal direction, the second supporting stand having at its upper end a second pivot bearing point of the pivotal axis, an intermediate supporting stand extending in vertical direction and having at its upper end an intermediate pivot bearing point of the pivotal axis, the intermediate supporting stand further comprising at its lower end at least two intermediate bases being arranged in a distance orthogonal to the longitudinal direction to each other, a first solar collector unit comprising at least one solar collector panel and a first unit frame to which the panel is mount
