    摘要: A solar energy racking system for a plurality of solar panels for generation of electrical energy comprising a pair of opposing elongated rails for disposing in spaced-apart relation on a surface and secured thereto with a pair of anchors for each elongated rail, said anchors for connecting to the surface and to respective opposing portions of the elongated rail; and a solar photovoltaic module for securing to the pair of rails with a plurality of clips. A plurality of solar panels mount to the rails in a dense-space array having a Slow-profile relative to the surface. Optionally an intermediate engaging member attached to the rails intermediate the anchors further secures the rails to the surface.

    摘要: An elongated plate having a rail and defining lateral wings on opposing sides and a plurality of spaced-apart tabs extending below a plane defined by a bottom surface of the plate for engaging a tufted geotextile ground cover, said rail for receiving a fastener for engaging a bracket of a photovoltaic module thereto. Alternatively, a pair of U-shaped racks support adjacent photovoltaic modules in a series on a support surface, comprising a base and a pair of opposing elongated legs each having a support plate for supportingly engaging a respective one of two adjacent photovoltaic modules, and the base including spaced tabs projecting at an angle to dispose a respective distal end vertically spaced from a bottom surface of the base, for engaging a portion of the support surface.

    摘要: A mounting system for securing a photovoltaic module to a tufted geosynthetic cover to collect solar energy, with an attaching harness connected to a support of a photovoltaic module, the attaching harness extending laterally outwardly of the photovoltaic module, and an elongate member disposed between the tufted geosynthetic cover and a geomembrane overlying a ground surface. Fasteners extend through the attaching harness and into the elongate member, for securing the photovoltaic module to the tufted geosynthetic cover. A method of securing a photovoltaic module to a tufted geosynthetic cover is disclosed.

    摘要: A plurality of solar photovoltaic modules disposed in spaced-part relation to define a gap between adjacent modules in an array of spaced-apart rows and the modules mounted on respective supports spaced from a surface to define an air gap therebetween, with at least one connector attaching respective adjacent modules, for generation of electricity while resisting wind uplift. A method of arranging interconnected solar photovoltaic modules in spaced-relation is disclosed for electrical generation while resting wind uplift.
