1. An anti-wave floating photovoltaic device, comprising:
a folding panel frame including multiple unit frames and configured to be folded or unfolded by Miura folding;
an elastic support leg configured to be installed under reinforcing beams on both sides of a back peak line of the folded panel frame on the side facing away from the sun;
a buoy configured to be installed below bottom of a front peak line of the folding panel frame through a hinged node and a cross base, and
a self-locking support rod including a first circular tube slide rail, a second circular tube slide rail and a third circular tube slide rail;
wherein the adjacent unit frames are connected by a hinge mechanism and at least one photovoltaic panel is provided on the front side of the folded panel frame facing the sun and two horizontally adjacent buoys are connected to a rope through the self-locking support rod.
