Abstract: A cross-section of a main shaft of a photovoltaic tracking support is of a compact cross-section. This cross-section includes four planar segments and four arc segments. The four planar segments and the four arc segments are alternately arranged circumferentially to form a square tubular structure. Widths of the four planar segments are equal, and radians of the four arc segments are also equal, making the square tubular structure formed by the four planar segments and the four arc segments centrally symmetric about an axis of the main shaft. A ratio of the width x? of the planar segment to a wall thickness t of the main shaft, i.e., a width-to-thickness ratio x?/t, falls within a range of 20 to 25, which achieves a balance and compromise between torsional strength and bending strength, thereby providing better stability.
