摘要： A clamp particularly designed for use on the end of a solar module mounting rail, includes two hinged parts that can be adjusted by a fastener to clamp a solar module to the rail. A pull-tab with toothed catches helps to position the clamp during installation, and also prevents the clamp from sliding too far into the rail, while a grip body increases friction and electrical contact between the solar module and the clamp.

摘要： In an example, the solar tracker has a clamp assembly that is configured to pivot a torque tube. In an example, the assembly has a support structure configured as a frame having configured by a first anchoring region and a second anchoring region. In an example, the support structure is configured from a thickness of metal material. In an example, the support structure is configured in an upright manner, and has a major plane region. In an example, the assembly has a pivot device configured on the support structure and a torque tube suspending on the pivot device and aligned within an opening of the support and configured to be normal to the plane region. In an example, the torque tube is configured on the pivot device to move about an arc in a first direction or in a second direction such that the first direction is in a direction opposite to the second direction.

摘要： A mounting device or bracket for paneled building surfaces is disclosed. The mounting bracket includes an upper wall in the form of a flat surface for supporting various types of attachments. An elongated mounting slot extends through the upper wall, and the mounting bracket includes an elongated nut receptacle that is positioned below this elongated mounting slot. With an attachment being positioned on the upper wall, an attachment fastener may be directed through the attachment, then through the elongated mounting slot, and then may be threadably engaged with a nut that is positioned within and movable along the nut receptacle in its elongated dimension. The elongated configuration of the mounting slot and nut receptacle provides adjustability for the position of the attachment fastener relative to the mounting bracket, including after the mounting bracket has already been installed on the building surface.

摘要： A metal section in concrete or mortar material is protected against corrosion by providing an anode and a solar panel where the solar panel and the anode are supplied for installation as a common unit where the anode is mounted to the rear of the solar panel with an optional storage component therebetween. At least a part of the anode is attached to a surface of the material and one or both of the anode and the solar panel is flexible to conform to the surface. In installation, a light meter is used to determine levels of ambient light for example in an interior location not in receipt of direct sunlight and details of the material and metal section at the location to calculate a required location and size of the solar panels and the anodes.

摘要： A solar cell assembly and a solar cell module are provided. The solar cell assembly includes a solar panel; and an installation member having a supporting portion configured for fixing the solar panel and a connecting portion configured for fixing the installation member onto a support beam. The supporting portion is disposed on a backside of the solar panel, the connecting portion extends out of an edge of the supporting portion along a direction parallel to the solar panel, the connecting portion locates outside of a coverage area of the solar panel, and the connecting portion defines a installation hole therein.

摘要： A method for forming a solar panel can include attaching one or more tacking pads to one or both of a first surface of a first solar panel subassembly and a second surface of a second solar panel subassembly. The method further includes dispensing an adhesive onto at least one of the first and second surfaces. The first and second surfaces are placed in contact with the one or more tacking pads, thereby tacking the first and second solar panel subassemblies together, during which the first and second surfaces contact the adhesive, thereby decreasing a thickness and increasing a surface area of the adhesive. Subsequently, the adhesive is cured. The tacking pad(s) maintain fixed alignment of the solar panel subassemblies during curing of the adhesive, and establish a bond line of the adhesive.

摘要： A roof construction for a vehicle having an opening in its fixed roof, comprises at least one panel for at least closing said opening. The panel comprises a first and a second layer of glass and in between said first and second layer of glass a sheet of photo voltaic cells as a third layer. The sheet of photo voltaic cells has an active layer of a thin film of solar cell material and further has a first area which is semi-transparent and a second area which is substantially opaque.

摘要： A storage container includes a body, a lid, and two handles. The body defines a compartment between first and second side walls of the body. The compartment is accessible along a top end of the body. The first and second side walls include respective cavities that are recessed from exterior surfaces of the side walls via rims that define perimeters of the cavities. The lid is connected to the top end of the body and encloses the compartment when in a closed position. The two handles are tethered to the body via cords, and are configured to nest within the cavities of the corresponding side walls when not grasped by a person. First and second ends of the handles are configured to engage opposing portions of the corresponding rim to retain the handle nested in the cavity via an interference fit.

摘要： Solar roof system for the propulsion and/or habitability of barges powered by solar energy provided by photovoltaic covers connected to each other, which serve as a lid for the containers where the barge load is transported. The covers can be connected to a power bank and a voltage regulation system and inverters, which avoid energy spikes and have the aim of providing a constant current.
