The disclosure provides a solar device. The solar device includes: a solar panel, having a first surface and a second surface arranged oppositely; and a support assembly, used to support the solar panel, herein the support assembly includes a support base and a support rod, the support base is arranged on the second surface, the support base is provided with an upper mounting hole and a lower mounting hole, the upper mounting hole and the lower mounting hole are arranged on the support base at intervals along a vertical direction, and the support rod may be selectively connected with the upper mounting hole or the lower mounting hole to adjust the inclination angle of the solar panel. Through a technical scheme provided by this disclosure, problems in an existing technology that the transportation is inconvenient and the power generation efficiency is low may be solved.

Fixed-tilt solar arrays and related systems

Fixed-tilt solar arrays constructed from screw anchors. In some cases, purlins are attached directly to truss legs. In others, they are attached to truss caps joining the free end of each truss leg. In still further ones, screw anchors are driven in rows and interconnected by a pair of hinged members, one of which provides a mounting plane for solar panels. Each screw anchor may serve as a connection point for the trailing hinged member of the first foundation and the leading hinged member of the next foundation. In still further cases, a hinged truss cap may be used to accommodate different tilt angles with the same foundation.

Stacking spacer, photovoltaic module frame and tracking device assembly

A stacking spacer for a photovoltaic module frame comprises a main body, extending in a longitudinal direction, a connecting member, extending in the longitudinal direction and protruding from the main body, adapted for being inserted in at least one lateral profile groove of the photovoltaic module frame, and two opposed support members, arranged on respective opposed longitudinal sides of the main body, extending in the longitudinal direction, wherein the two opposed support members have complementary forms, whereby at least two stacking spacers can be securely stacked on top of each other. Photovoltaic module frames and tracking device assemblies may include photovoltaic modules comprising such stacking spacers.

Passive locking chuck for rotary driver
20230121321 · 2023-04-20 ·

A passive locking chuck for a rotary driver. The chuck receives the driving end of a foundation component such a screw anchor to be driven into the ground. As the driving end is inserted into the chuck, spring biased pawls are displaced until insertion is complete. The geometry of each pawl dictates that less force is required to insert the foundation component than to remove it. The chuck has a geometry that mates with the geometry of the driving end of the foundation component.
