Therein, the rotation between the two first stand poles and the rotation of the scissor-type structure are independent without interference. The opening angle of the scissor-type structure is not limited by the opening angle of the first support stand, the opening angle of the scissor-type structure is free. Preferred the first connecting base 12 is disposed with a keeping structure used to keep the two first stand poles 11 in unfolding position, the keeping structure is for example a lock mechanism 123, which locks the two first stand poles in unfolding position, such that the two first stand poles can be kept in unfolding position; when the lock mechanism is unlocked, the two first stand poles are rotatable. The first stand poles and the second stand poles can be elastic fibre poles or hard poles, the hard pole can be metal hard pole or plastic hard pole,
(18) The rotating axis of the first stand pole 11 and the second stand pole 21 is not parallel to the rotating axis of the two first stand poles 11. in this embodiment, the rotating axis of the two first stand poles 11 in unfolding position is vertical, so that the two first stand poles are rotatable in the horizontal direction; the two first stand poles can be open in 180 or more than 180 in the unfolding position, such to self lock.
