Description

  The present invention relates to a solar cell in which a leg portion of a solar cell panel support for supporting a solar cell panel in an inclined state is formed by connecting a pile partially embedded in the ground and a column connected thereto. The present invention relates to a leg connecting structure of a panel mount.

  Since solar panels convert solar energy into electrical energy, areas and buildings with high sunlight receiving efficiency are selected, and solar panels are placed on the ground of the selected areas or on buildings. A mounting base is installed. In addition, solar cell panels are always exposed to natural environments such as wind and rain and strong ultraviolet rays. Therefore, for example, when a plurality of solar cell panels are directly installed on the ground over a wide area, the solar cell panel may float with the solar cell panel mount or fall over due to strong wind.

  For this reason, in order to prevent the solar cell panel from being lifted or toppled over, it has been widely adopted that the lower end of the leg portion supporting the gantry is embedded in a concrete foundation placed in the ground. However, in the structure of fixing the legs by this concrete foundation, work such as excavation of the ground and placing of concrete becomes large, and the enforcement cost becomes high, and when diverting the site to another use, The concrete foundation is costly to remove and dispose of, and has the disadvantage of being uneconomical and impractical.

  On the other hand, what uses the pile which provided the arrowhead part which has a barb at the front-end | tip is proposed as a leg part which supports the mount frame which hold | maintains the conventional solar cell panel. This pile is driven into the ground to a predetermined depth, and a support portion having a diameter larger than the diameter of the pile is provided in the middle of the pile to bury the support portion. And the support | pillar which hold | maintains the said mount frame is provided in this support part, The extraction load by a wind is supported by the said pile, and the load of a solar cell panel etc. is supported by the said support part (for example, refer patent document 1).

  According to this, since the pile is driven into the ground by a predetermined depth, and then the support portion is fixed in the middle of the pile, the work is simple and the work cost is low. . In addition, since the pulling-out load due to wind load is supported by the barb's barbing, the support only needs to support the column, and therefore it is not necessary to increase the weight of the support and it is not necessary to increase it. It is said that the excavation in the ground for burying the part may be slight.

  However, the conventional solar cell panel mount described above has the following problems to be solved. That is, since the struts and piles that support the gantry are long and united, the operation of driving into the ground is troublesome and large, such as using a civil engineering machine. In addition, it requires troublesome and inefficient work such as inserting the support pillar into the through hole of the support part and filling concrete in the gap between the through hole and the support pillar, and eventually spends a long time on the installation work of the gantry. It was.

  In general, the inclination of the gantry varies from site to site, so it is difficult to produce a single leg from the ground to the ground in a length that fits the site. When there is a need to adjust the length, the adjustment work takes time, and the work efficiency of the installation of the gantry is deteriorated. It is important to reduce the number of installation steps for the installation of solar panels, and this reduction in installation man-hours contributes to shortening the construction days that account for the majority of solar panel installation costs and reducing the total cost. To do.

  The present invention has been made to solve such conventional problems, and the object of the present invention is to divide the legs of the gantry into columns and piles, thereby making it easier to drive the piles into the ground.

On the other hand, the pile 16 is a pair of opposing side walls 16a and 16b, and two round holes (mounting holes) 18 of a predetermined size are arranged in a horizontal row at a predetermined interval at a position not overlapping with the round hole 17 in the vertical direction. I have it. Such legs A can be used to support the support 12 and the solar cell panel 11 in all known forms.

  On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 3, the support fitting 13 for supporting the support base 12 on the support column 14 is provided integrally with a C-shaped bracket 19 and an upper piece 19a of the C-shaped bracket 19 so as to be vertical. And an upstanding piece 20 standing upright. The vertical piece 19b of the C-shaped metal fitting 19 is brought into contact with the side surface of the upper end portion of the support post 14, and a nut 22 is screwed into a bolt 21 penetrating the vertical piece 19b and the side wall of the support post 14 in the horizontal direction. The character bracket 19 is fixed to the support column 14 as shown in FIG.

  Further, the upright piece 20 is in contact with the outer surface of the frame 12a of the support base 12, and is attached to the outer surface of the frame 12a so as to be rotatable or fixed by using a fixing pin (or bolt) 23. . Note that a well-known support structure other than the above can be arbitrarily used to attach the support base 12 to the support column 14. In FIG. 1, a reinforcing beam 24 for reinforcement is provided between the front and rear columns 14, 14. A well-known coupling means such as a bolt and a nut is used to connect the reinforcing beam 24 and the columns 14 and 14.

Here, FIG. 5 is a perspective view of what is shown in FIG. 4 when the orientation is changed to an angle of 90 degrees. The leg connecting member 15 includes two first L-shaped brackets 25 attached to the upper end of the pile 16 and two second L-shaped brackets 26 attached to the lower end of the column 14. The first L-shaped metal fitting 25 and the second L-shaped metal fitting 26 are formed by bending a rigid steel plate having a predetermined size into an L shape, as shown in FIGS. However, the size is sufficiently larger than the length (width) of each side of the square cylindrical column 14 and the pile 16.

  The first L-shaped metal fitting 25 and the second L-shaped metal fitting 26 have the same shape and the same size, and each includes a vertical piece 25a, 26a and a horizontal piece 25b, 26b. As shown in FIG. 6, two round holes (mounting holes) 27 are formed in the vertical pieces 25a and 26a, and two long holes 28 are formed in the horizontal pieces 25b and 26b as shown in FIG. It has been drilled. Here, the two round holes 27 are arranged in a horizontal row in a position that fits within the length (width) of each side of the column 14 and the pile 16, and the two long holes 28 are arranged on each side of the column 14 and the pile 16. It is arranged in a horizontal row at a position exceeding the length (width).

  The leg connecting bracket 15 including the first L-shaped bracket 25 and the second L-shaped bracket 26 is assembled to the pile 16 and the column 14 as follows. First, for each of the side walls 16a and 16b at the upper end of the pile 16 constituting the leg A, each L-shaped bracket 25 is turned upside down as a first L-shaped bracket as shown in FIG. Further, the vertical piece 25a is brought into contact with the horizontal piece 25b facing upward. At this time, the positions of the round hole 27 provided in the vertical piece 25a and the round hole 18 provided in the side walls 16a and 16b are aligned.

  Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 9, the both ends of the U-shaped fastening member 32 (see FIG. 10) with the screw portions 32 a at both ends are connected to the rounds of the side walls 16 a and 16 b from the inside of the pile 16. The nut 29 is screwed into the threaded portion 32a protruding from the vertical piece 25a through the hole 18 and the round hole 27 of the vertical piece 25a, and tightened. Thereby, the 1st L-shaped metal fitting 25 is fixed to the pile 16 firmly.

  Next, on each of the side walls 14a and 14b at the lower end of the column 14, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 4, a separately prepared L-shaped metal fitting 26 is used as a second L-shaped metal fitting with the horizontal piece 26b facing down. Then, the vertical piece 26a is brought into contact therewith. At this time, the round hole 27 provided in the vertical piece 26a and the round hole 17 provided in the column 14 are aligned.

  Then, the both ends of the U-shaped fastening member 32 having the screw portions 32 a at both ends are connected to the round holes 17 of the side walls 14 a and 14 b and the round holes 27 of the L-shaped metal fitting 26 from the inside of the column 14. The nut 29 is screwed into the screw portion 32a protruding outward from the vertical piece 26b and tightened. As a result, the second L-shaped metal fitting 26 is firmly fixed to the column 14 as shown in FIGS. 4, 5 and 9.

  Subsequently, a second L-shape is formed on a horizontal piece (hereinafter referred to as a horizontal upper piece) 25b of the first L-shaped bracket 25 so that the lower end surface of the support column 14 abuts against the upper end surface of the pile 16. A horizontal piece (hereinafter referred to as a horizontal lower piece) 26b of the metal fitting 26 is overlapped. Then, bolts 30 are passed through the long holes 28 formed in the horizontal upper piece 25b and the horizontal lower piece 26b, and nuts 31 are screwed into the end portions and tightened.

  Thereby, the horizontal upper piece 25b and the horizontal lower piece 26b are firmly connected to each other, and the pile 16 and the column 14 are integrally connected. Thus, a single leg A as shown in FIGS. 1, 4 and 5 for supporting the support base 12 is formed. The structure of the leg portion A is implemented for the number of support columns 14 that support the support base 12.

  FIGS. 11-16 shows the procedure which fixes the L-shaped metal fitting 26 to the support | pillar 14. FIG. In addition, although the procedure which fixes the 1st L-shaped metal fitting 25 to the pile 6 can be implemented similarly, the duplication description is abbreviate | omitted here. First, the vertical piece 26a of the second L-shaped metal fitting 26 is brought into contact with the side surface (upper surface in the figure) of the support column 14 as shown in FIG. At this time, the round hole 27 of the second L-shaped bracket 26 is aligned with the round hole 17 of the support column 14. Here, the fastening member 32 is prepared, and each screw part 32a is made to oppose the round hole 27 as shown in FIG.

  Next, one screw part 32a of the fastening member 32 is inserted into the support column 14 as shown in FIG. 12 from the tip part through the round hole 27 and the round hole 17 communicating therewith. At the time of this insertion, the other threaded portion 32a interferes with the horizontal lower piece 26b of the second L-shaped metal fitting 26, so that the connecting portion 32b is greatly inclined.

  The round holes 27 and 17 have a size that has a sufficient margin with respect to the thickness of the fastening member 32. Further, the corner portion P where the screw portion 32a and the connecting portion 32b are continuous has a smooth arc surface on the outer peripheral side thereof. Therefore, it can slide in the round holes 17 and 27.

  Subsequently, the fastening member 32 is rotated in the arrow direction shown in FIG. 13 so that the screw portion 32a enters the back direction (arrow direction) in the column 14. By this turning operation, the corner portion P enters the column 14 through the round holes 17 and 27, and the connecting portion 32b is positioned in these round holes 17 and 27 as shown in FIG.

  Next, in the vicinity of the position where the threaded portion 32a of the fastening member 32 reaches the other round hole 17, 27, the fastening member 32 is rotated in the direction of the arrow in FIG. At this time, the fastening member 32 is rotated while observing from the outside of the vertical piece 26 a through the round hole 27 so that the screw portion 32 a faces (opposes) the round hole 17.

  Subsequently, the fastening member 32 is rotated so that the corner portion P of the screw portion 32a and the connecting portion 32b is close to the other round holes 17, 27, and the tip of the screw portion 32a is connected to the round hole 17, 27 is inserted as shown in FIG. As a result, the screw portion 32a together with the other screw portion 32a protrudes outside the vertical piece 32a as shown in FIG.

  Therefore, maintaining this state, the deformable sleeve 33 is inserted into each screw portion 32a protruding to the outside of the vertical piece 26a, and the nut 34 is screwed into each screw portion 32a through this. Then, by tightening these nuts 34, the second L-shaped metal fitting 26 can be securely fixed to the column 14 as shown in FIG. Note that the other second L-shaped metal fitting 26 and the first L-shaped metal fitting 25 can be attached to the column 14 and the pile 16 in the same procedure as described above.

  As described above, the leg connection structure of the solar cell panel mounting base of the present embodiment is such that the support base 12 is grounded at an angle according to the terrain and the solar irradiation environment with respect to the pile 16 in which the lower end is embedded in the ground. The length of the support 14 can be arbitrarily selected at the construction site and connected thereto, and this can be connected to L-shaped brackets 25, 26, U-shaped fastening members 32, bolts and nuts, etc. By assembling in the field using the small parts, the component parts of the leg A can be easily transported and stored, and the installation work of the support base 12 can be facilitated and made efficient. Moreover, since work such as welding is not involved, rust does not occur in each component. Furthermore, large-scale construction such as placing concrete foundations can be eliminated, and construction costs can be greatly reduced.

  The solar cell panel mounting platform leg connecting structure according to the present invention divides the support base leg into a column and a pile, thereby facilitating the driving operation of the pile into the ground and driving into the ground. By adding pillars to the piles, it has the effect that the construction of the support base that was in place at the enforcement site can be carried out efficiently and at low cost with regard to the installation conditions, installation angles, etc. of the solar panel, and the solar panel is tilted The legs of the solar panel pedestal supported by the solar panel pedestal are constructed by connecting a pile partly buried in the ground and a column connected to the pillar, etc. Useful.
