Definitions
- the present invention can be included in the technical field of solar energy utilisation. More specifically, the object of the invention relates to a device and a method for anchoring a support structure for solar collectors to the ground.
- piles are known, used as construction elements used for anchoring structures, allowing loads to be transferred to a resistant soil layer when they are located at a depth such that conventional foundation footings or slabs are rendered technically or economically unfeasible.
- British Patent GB2360809 relates to a pile and an installation method, disclosing a pile that comprises a rod having at least one helix acting as a screw thread to facilitate the penetration of the rod into the ground, where the helix has a plough-shaped load flank for compressing the ground radially outwards during penetration of the rod.
- the pile introduction process comprises the incorporation of a bonding agent around the rod during introduction for insertion into a vacuum created by the plough-shaped assembly.
- British Patent GB2397327 relates to a pile comprising at least two portions axially aligned telescopically in order to fix the effective pile length and comprises fixing means for allowing one of the sections to be fixed to another section in a plurality of positions to selectively determine the total length of the pile.
- the problem posed consists of defining means for fixing solar collector structures to foundation piles allowing execution of the fixation in a simple and highly accurate manner.
- the present invention describes, according to a first aspect, a device for laying the foundations of a support structure for solar collectors comprising:
- the joining means for joining the pile to the structure comprise a bolt, attached to the pile by a lower end of the bolt (threaded or not threaded) and attachable to the structure by a threaded upper end opposite the lower end.
- the lower end of the bolt is, according to this first embodiment, housed and fixed in a body inserted in the second end of the pile (the end projecting from the ground) and fixed to said pile.
- the body is made of hardenable material susceptible of, by drying and/or setting, hardening and adhering to the pile and bolt, such as, for example, cement, concrete or mortar.
- a second aspect of the invention relates to a method for anchoring a support structure for solar collectors to the ground, using the device of the invention, which comprises the following steps:
- the method can include the additional step of fixing the bolt to the pile.
- the bolt can be fixed to the pile following the steps below:
- defining a receptacle on the second end of the pile comprises forcibly introducing, to a certain depth, a first watertight elastic plug, preferably of polystyrene foam, having dimensions slightly larger than the cross-section of the second end of the pile, said receptacle being composed of the first plug and by the inner surface of the second end of the pile, above the first plug.
- a first watertight elastic plug preferably of polystyrene foam
- the step that involves defining the receptacle may include an additional stage of forcibly introducing to a second depth, less than the first depth, a second watertight elastic plug, preferably of polystyrene foam, having dimensions slightly larger than the cross-section of the second end of the pile, said second plug having a first opening for inserting the bolt and a second opening for pouring the hardenable material.
- the location of the first opening can be established preferably using templates or topographic control.
- the joining means comprise, alternatively to the bolt, a cap disposed tightly around the exterior of the second end of the pile, said cap having first fixing means for fixing the pile to the structure.
- the fixing means comprise a metal bracket having a first side for fixation to the cap and a second side for fixation to the structure. The second side can also be fixed to the structure using bolts or other types of fasteners.
- the joining means comprise, in addition to a bolt:
- the first slots and the second slots comprise:
- the fixation of the bolt comprises the following steps:
- the joining means may additionally comprise a joining element, preferably a profile, having a flat face, wherein said flat face comprises bores to facilitate the fixation of the piles to the structure, said flat face being adapted for the structure to rest on said flat face.
- the method explained comprises the additional step of determining the location of the pile with respect to the ground prior to the introduction of said pile in the ground, as well as determining the location, if using bolts, of the bolt with respect to the pile prior to fixing the bolt to the pile.
- the location of the bolt and/or pile shall be determined preferably using one of the following techniques:
- the present invention allows anchoring of a support structure for solar collectors to the ground in a fast, accurate and cost-effective manner, simply and cleanly, without need for passage of trucks, cement mixers, etc.
- the device for anchoring a support structure (2) for solar collectors to the ground (1) comprises: at least one pile (3) having a first end (4) adapted for insertion into the ground (1) and a second end (5) projecting from the ground (1); and joining means for joining the pile (3) to the structure (2).
- the method for anchoring a support structure (2) for solar collectors to the ground (1) using the device of the invention which comprises the following steps: introduction of the first end (4) of the pile (3) in the ground (1), leaving the second end (5) above the ground (1); and fixation of the structure (2) to the bolt (7).
- the joining means for joining the pile (3) to the structure (2) comprise a bolt (7) attached to the pile (3) by a lower end (8) (threaded or not threaded) and attachable to the structure (2) by a threaded upper end (9) opposite the lower end (8).
- the method comprises the previous step of fixing the bolt (7) to the pile (3).
- the lower end (8) of the bolt (7) is housed in a body (10), formed by mortar, inserted in the second end (5) of the pile (3) and fixed to said pile (3).
- the bolt (7) can be fixed to the pile (3) by forcibly introducing, prior to the bolt (7), through the second end (5) of the pile (3), a watertight first plug (13) and then a watertight second plug (14), preferably of polystyrene foam, having dimensions slightly larger than those of the cross-section of the second end (5) of the pile (3), defining a receptacle (not shown) between the two plugs (13, 14).
- a first opening (not shown) and a second opening (12) are made in the second plug (14) and the mortar is poured into the receptacle through the second opening (12), allowing said mortar to harden.
- the location of the first opening is determined preferably using a template or topographic control.
- the lower end (8) of the bolt (7) is housed inside said first opening.
- the joining means comprise, alternatively to the bolt (7), a cap (30) disposed, preferably in a tight-fitting manner, around the exterior of the second end (5) of the pile (3), said cap (30) having first joining means in the manner of a metal bracket (31) having a first side (32) for fixation to the cap (30) and a second side (33) having a hole for fixation directly to the structure (2).
- the first fixing means may comprise a second bracket (34) comprising a lower bored side (35) resting on the second side (33) and an upper side (36) whereon the structure (2) rests. There is no reason why the first bracket (31) or second bracket (32) cannot be fixed to the structure (2) by means of bolts (not shown).
- the joining means comprise, in addition to the bolt (7):
- first slots (20, 21) and the second slots (22, 23) comprise:
- the fixation of the bolt (7) to the pile (3) comprises the steps of: fixing the first plate (18) to the pile (3); introducing the lower end (8) of the bolt (7) in the first bore of the second plate (24) and fixing said bolt (7) to said second plate (24); superimposing the second plate (24) on the first plate (18), aligning at least partially the first slots (20, 21) with the second slots (22, 23); and screwing the first plate (18) to the second plate (24) by introducing the second fixing means (26) through the slots (20, 21, 22, 23).
- the joining means additionally comprise a joining element, preferably a profile (15), having a flat face (29), wherein said flat face (29) comprises second bores (not shown) for facilitating the joint between the piles and the structure; likewise, the flat face (29) is adapted so that the structure (2) rests on said flat face (29).
- the second bores serve to house and fix the bolts (7) of two adjacent piles (3).
- the method explained comprises the additional step of determining the location of the pile (3) with respect to the ground (1) prior to introducing said pile (3) in the ground (1), as well as determining, when a bolt (7) is used, the location of said bolt (7) with respect to the pile (3) prior to fixing the bolt (7) to the pile (3).
- the location of the bolt (7) and/or pile (3) can be determined preferably using at least one of the following techniques: topographic determination and control; and use of templates (not shown) having marks indicating the relative locations of the piles (3) and/or the bolts (7).
