Abstract: A trestle includes a base, a slide bracket, a fixing unit, a first fastener, and a second fastener. The fixing unit is installed on the slide bracket and fixes a solar panel that is mounted on a surface of a roof surface. A mounting surface on which the solar panel is mounted is formed on a receiving member of the fixing unit. A fixing unit main body of the fixing unit is formed capable of holding down and fixing the solar panel to the mounting surface by the second fastener, and is fixed to the receiving member. The first fastener is attached such that the fixing between the slide bracket and the fixing unit can be released while maintaining the fixing between the receiving member and the fixing unit main body by the second fastener.

Abstract: A roof mount system supports a solar panel above a roof and includes a base positioned on the roof and a first fastener connected to the base and extending away from the roof and moveable along the base in a direction generally parallel to the roof. A first clamp supports a bottom surface of a solar panel frame and adjusts the height of the solar panel above the roof by moving the first clamp along a first fastener in a direction perpendicular to the roof. A second clamp is connected to a second fastener and moves with respect to the first clamp perpendicular to the roof. The solar panel is clamped between the first clamp and the second clamp portion. A protrusion extends from the first or second clamp to form an electrical bond between the solar panel frame and the respective first or second clamp.
