Claim:
1. A device comprising: multiple successively arranged tracking units for solar panels each having respective drive units for solar position tracking, wherein each tracking unit has a supporting framework for two adjacent solar panel assemblies each having multiple solar panels, wherein each solar panel assembly has an associated main support shaft, wherein each main support shaft has two ends, and is connected at each end to a respective main support receptacle, wherein the main support shafts and main support receptacles arranged in series form an axis of rotation of the tracking unit, wherein the drive unit of each tracking unit is coupled to two of the main support receptacles directly adjacent thereto such that said drive unit communicates with the main support shafts connected with the main support receptacles adjacent thereto, and causes the tracking of both solar panel assemblies from east to west by extending or retracting a telescopic arm, wherein said adjacent main support receptacles are supported on a shared piledriven profile, and the drive unit is connected to the piledriven profile and to the two main support receptacles, and wherein two of the main support receptacles that are adjacent each other are provided with bolts that are mounted with play in recesses of opposing side walls of a bearing shaft carrier connected to another piledriven profile such that each of the main support receptacles can be moved into inclination to the axis of rotation of the other of the main support receptacles, wherein at least one of the main support receptacles has a rotating shaft, a bolt plate with the bolts at one end of the rotating shaft, a mounting part that is a mounting plate, rotating shaft bearing profiles, a counter plate, and fastening bolts, wherein the main support shaft is located between the mounting plate and the counter plate and is fixed in a clamping manner via the fastening bolts between the mounting plate and the counter plate, wherein the drive unit is a linear drive, and wherein an upper eye of the linear drive is connected to a drive bracket, the drive bracket consisting of at least three sections connected to one another, and that jointly describe a U-profile, and wherein a plurality of jaws, on which the upper eye of the linear drive is fastened, are located on the connecting arm, and the terminal sections of the drive bracket are connected to the mounting plate of the rotating shaft.
