A solar module configured in a frame assembly with multi-configuration attachment member(s), which has locking and unlocking characteristics.

A deflection pad may include a body. The body may include a recess to accommodate a fastener configured to attach the deflection pad to a support structure. The base of the deflection pad may include a bottom surface configured to engage a surface of the support structure. The deflection pad may be included in a system that includes a torsion beam and one or more support racks to which multiple PV modules may be attached, where the support are racks attached to the torsion beam. One or more deflection pads may be positioned between the PV modules and the support rack so as to cushion impact.

A deflection pad may include a body including two peaks, and a recess in the body between the two peaks, the recess may be sized to accommodate a fastener such that when deployed, the fastener is below a height of the two peaks within the recess. The deflection pad may include arms projecting in a direction generally opposite the two peaks, the arms biased inward towards the recess. The deflection pad may be included in a system that includes a torsion beam and one or more support racks to which multiple PV modules may be attached, where the support are racks attached to the torsion beam. One or more deflection pads may be positioned on the support racks to be below the PV modules.

A coupling system for use with a solar tracker includes a support rail defining a channel for receipt of a solar module therein, the support rail including an aperture defined therein that is in open communication with the channel and a clamp assembly selectively coupled to the support rail, a first portion of the clamp assembly configured to receive a portion of a torque tube therein and a second portion of the clamp assembly configured to selectively extend through the aperture of the support rail when the clamp assembly is transitioned from a first, unlocked position, to a second, locked position.

Present invention provides a float capable of suppressing deformation of the synthetic resin body even if internal gas expands and contracts due to environmental temperature change. A float comprises a float body made of a synthetic resin molded in a hollow shape, a projecting portion projecting from the upper surface of the float body and having a vent hole, and a microporous membrane adhered to the outside of the vent hole.

A solar module configured in a frame assembly with multi-configuration attachment member(s), which has locking and unlocking characteristics.

This disclosure generally relates to solar module mounting and racking. More specifically, this disclosure relates to integrated solar racking systems, which facilitate slide and snap in place mounting technology that achieves solar module mounting and electrical grounding. This design eliminates the need for mounting fasteners and tools, and facilitates reliable and repeatable installation.
