    摘要: The present specification relates generally to solar roof panels and more specifically to an interlocking solar roof panel, method of installation thereof, and related kit. The interlocking solar roof panel comprises a rectangular frame, configured to hold a photovoltaic panel, wherein the rectangular frame has at least one free edge opposite at least one connecting edge; at least one male component, disposed at a point along the at least one connecting edge; at least one female component, disposed at a point along the at least one free edge and configured to connect with the at least one male component; and a photovoltaic panel. A kit comprising at least one interlocking solar roof panel and at least one bracket is also disclosed. The interlocking solar roof panel may increase the visual appeal of a series of solar roof panels installed on a roof.

    摘要: An insertion rail for a solar panel mounting system is provided. The insertion rail has a mounting wall configured for connection to the solar panel mounting system, wherein the mounting wall is posited at a lower end of a first side of the insertion rail, a vertical leg coupled to the mounting wall at at least one location, wherein the vertical leg is positioned at a second side of the insertion rail, and at least one mating section located at an upper end of the insertion rail. The mating section has an upper tab, a lower tab and the upper tab and lower tab are configured to receive and secure a solar panel integrally therewith using an interference fit.

    摘要: A tiered mounting system includes a base plate including a mounting guide rail having a plurality of mounting grooves that extend along opposing sides of the guide rail. The system also includes an object mount connector having a plurality of mounting ridges. The object mount connector is configured to: slidingly engage the mounting guide rail via insertion of one or more of the plurality of mounting ridges within a corresponding one or more of the plurality of mounting grooves, and lock in place along the mounting guide rail via a bolt placed through the object mount connector and secured tightly to an inner track of the mounting guide rail.

    摘要: A solar power system can include a rail and a solar module disposed on the rail. A clamp assembly can couple the solar module to the rail. The clamp assembly can have a clamped configuration in which the solar module is secured to the rail and an unclamped configuration. The clamp assembly can comprise an upper clamp member, a lower clamp member coupled to the rail, and a stabilization member mechanically engaging the upper clamp member and the lower clamp member. The stabilization member can prevent rotation of the lower clamp member relative to the rail when the clamp assembly is in the clamped and unclamped configurations. In the unclamped configuration, the stabilization member can be biased such that the upper clamp member is disposed at a sufficient clearance above the rail to permit the insertion of the solar module between the upper clamp member and the rail.

    摘要: In a securing unit including first frames for holding the end sides of a solar cell and a securing tool, the securing tool includes a base member that is secured to an installation face, a stand that is erected from the base member, a shaft that has an external thread and is held by the stand in a state in which a movement in the axial direction is restricted, and a holder that holds the first frame by inserting a lateral side extended portion into a slit of the first frame and moves up and down relatively to the stand by screwing internal threads formed in the holder together with the external thread of the shaft.
