Abstract: This disclosure discusses devices, systems, and methods for attaching solar modules to roofs. The devices allow for pre-assembly of clamping devices to the solar modules on the ground and subsequent installation on the roof. End clamps may be preinstalled on the trailing-edge of modules. Module hook brackets may be preinstalled to the leading edge of non-first row modules. The system uses edge splices and loop splices to secure modules together within a row. Subsequent rows are installed by rotationally engaging the loop splices with module hook brackets. The system may use separate devices for roof attachment and inter-module attachment. This separation between roof-securing devices and inter-module securing devices allow the present system to assemble quickly and allows for greater flexibility in design, span, and module placement.

Abstract: A support system may secure a wind turbine above an angled roof. The angled roof may have a first angled surface, an opposite second angled surface, and a peak between the first angled surface and the second angled surface. The support surface may have a first weighted ballast located along a portion of the first angled surface and a second weighted ballast located along a portion of the second angled surface. The support system may have a connector extending between and connecting a portion of the first weighted ballast and a portion of the second weighted ballast. The connector may extend over the peak. The support system may have a mounting portion on the connector for securing a wind turbine to the connector. The first weighted ballast and the second weighted ballast may be sized and weighted to maintain the wind turbine above the peak during wind conditions.

Abstract: A mounting system for mounting a solar panel assembly to a base assembly includes a panel support bracket, a base bracket and a clamp configured to exert a compressive force to hold the panel support bracket and the base bracket together. The clamp comprises a V-shaped clamp body that includes a pair of legs that are spring-loaded to oppose an approximation of the legs by an external compressive force. The clamp includes a pair of receiver slots, with each of the pair of receiver slots located on a corresponding one of the pair of legs. The pair of receiver slots collectively provides a clearance to admit the panel support bracket and the base bracket when the legs are compressed together.

Abstract: A solar panel mounting assembly including a cap that includes a secure-side wing, a catch-side wing, and an integral vertical leg that protrudes downwardly from the catch-side wing. The vertical leg is integral with the catch-side wing and has a top end and a bottom end. A plurality of inwardly facing corrugations are disposed at the bottom end of the vertical leg. The solar panel mounting assembly further includes a base that includes a secure-side support surface, a tilted spring support ledge on a catch-side, and a plurality of outwardly-facing corrugations disposed on an upper horizontal portion of the base. An inwardly-facing corrugation of the vertical leg contacts and engages an outwardly-facing corrugation on the upper horizontal portion of the base, and the base is vertically adjustable with respect to the cap.

Abstract: Photovoltaic roofing systems including a roof pan, a photovoltaic device, and roof covering members. The roof pan is supported on a deck of a roof. The photovoltaic device is mounted to the roof pan and includes a photovoltaic panel. The roof covering members are mounted to the deck surrounding and overlapping the roof pan to define an integrated covering. The roof covering members overlapping the roof pan inhibits water flowing to the deck underneath the integrated covering. In some examples, the photovoltaic roofing system includes one or more of an inverter, an energy storage device, a wire retainer, and a roof cap.

Abstract: A roof system is provided. The roof system includes a roof body capable of forming a flat roof or a corrugated roof, where the roof body is provided on a roof pillar; a gutter system is provided at a valley position of the corrugated roof or on the flat roof; a skylight system is further provided at a pitched roof or a ridge of the corrugated roof or on the flat roof; and a pressure relief adjustment component is provided on the skylight system. According to the roof system, a plurality of roof modules are assembled into the roof body. Two adjacent ones of the roof modules are fixed by a connecting plate and a self-locking component when assembled. A plurality of reinforcing points work cooperatively, so the roof system achieves a high utilization rate, and ensures the overall stability and bearing capacity of the roof.

Abstract: A mounting system including a base, a cavity with the base and open to a bottom portion of the base. A port extends from a top of the base into the cavity, and a vent is disposed in the top of the base and extends to the cavity. The port being configured to receive an injected sealant to fill the cavity with the injected sealant, thereby sealing around a penetration in a surface by a surface fastener. The injected sealant forcing air from inside the cavity out of the vent to ensure the injected sealant completely fills the cavity. A slide attached on the base protrudes above the top portion of the base and includes one or more guide rails for slidably receiving a bracket.
