JP4432091B2 - A pyranometer attachment to a solar array mount - Google Patents

Description

  The present invention relates to a pyranometer mounting tool to a solar cell array frame suitable for mounting a solar radiation meter to a frame that supports the solar cell array, and a solar that can be mounted together with a module on a main material constituting the frame. The present invention relates to a pyranometer attachment to a battery array mount.

  As shown in FIG. 5, when the solar radiation meter Q is attached to the solar cell array mount that supports the solar cell array, conventionally, as shown in FIG. 6, the angle member 100 is attached to the end of the main material 1 to which the module P is attached. Next, the plate 200 for attaching the pyranometer Q is connected to the upper surface of the angle member 100, and the pyranometer Q is attached to the plate 200.

Patent Document 1 describes a method for fixing a solar cell array mount. In this gantry, the solar cell array gantry is supported by the H steel channel base. For example, in the case of attaching an entire solar radiation meter to the gantry, conventionally, an angle member 100 shown in FIG. 6 is connected to the end of the gantry, and then a plate 200 for attaching a pyranometer is attached to the upper surface of the angle member 100. It becomes means such as connecting.

  However, in the case where the solar radiation meter is attached to the solar cell array mount, the conventional attachment means requires a lot of labor and time for the following reasons a. To e.

a. The mounting position of the pyranometer is not decided at the time of designing the stand, and the angle material and the plate for mounting the pyranometer cannot be designed. It takes.
b. Even if the installation position of the pyranometer is determined at the time of design, there may be cases where it cannot be installed at the time of design due to the location of the sun (easy sun exposure) and wiring conditions when the frame is assembled.
c. When changing the mounting position of the pyranometer after assembling the stand, remove the module and wiring etc. of that part in order to change the angle material and plate for mounting the pyranometer. It is necessary to replace the angle material and plate for mounting the meter.
d. When drilling is performed at the site when the installation position is changed, the construction site is on the roof of the building, making it difficult to prepare a power supply for the power tool. On-site drilling tends to be avoided due to the possibility of damage to the waterproof sheet.
e. At the time of inspection of the platform, holes other than those for assembly are regarded as unnecessary holes and the inspector receives instructions from the inspector to fill in unnecessary holes. The design must be separate from the main material that supports the module.

  Therefore, the present invention was created to solve the above-mentioned problems, and the installation work of the pyranometer is not affected by the design or assembly work of the gantry, and even after the gantry is assembled, the pyranometer can be easily attached or changed in position.
