  Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. First, a support for a solar cell panel mount according to an embodiment of the present invention (hereinafter simply referred to as “support”) will be schematically described. FIG. 1: has shown the perspective view of the mount frame 1 using the support body 10 which concerns on one Embodiment of this invention. FIG. 2 is a side view illustrating the support portion of the gantry 1 including the underground. 3 is an enlarged side view of the vicinity of the support 10 (a part in FIG. 1), and FIG. 4 is an enlarged perspective view.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the gantry 1 assembles a frame 2 to form an installation frame 3. The frame 2 may be a rectangular tube shape or a cylindrical shape. A solar cell panel (not shown) is mounted on the installation frame 3. The installation frame 3 is supported by a support column 4, and the support column 4 is supported by a support body 10. As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the support 10 is configured by a column cylinder 12 standing on a support seat 11. The support column 4 inserted into the support column 12 is fixed by tightening the bolt 20. Details of this fixing will be described later. Since the support 4 supports the installation frame 3 and the support 10 supports the support 4, the support 4 and the support 10 both require high strength. For this reason, it is preferable to form the support | pillar 4 and the support body 10 with metals, such as iron.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the support 10 is fixed on the pile 30. Most of the piles 30 are embedded in the underground 40. A screw 32 is integrated with the pile 30, and the pile 30 is driven into the underground 40 while rotating the pile 30. On the ground, the support seat 11 of the support 10 is fixed on the support base 31 of the pile 30. As shown in FIG. 4, this fixing is performed by tightening a nut 36 to a bolt 35 inserted through the long hole 32 (FIG. 11) of the support base 31 of the pile 30 and the long hole 14 of the support seat 11 of the support 10. Has been done. Details of this fixing will also be described later.

  Hereinafter, the configuration of the support 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention will be specifically described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 5 is a perspective view of the support 10 in a single state. 6 to 9 show the support 10 shown in FIG. 4, FIG. 6 is a side view, FIG. 7 is a plan view, and FIG. 8 is a bottom view. 9 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line AA in FIG. As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the column cylinder 12 is erected on the support seat 11. More specifically, as shown in FIG. 9, the column cylinder 12 is joined to the support seat 11 at the welded portion 15. The column cylinder 12 only needs to be firmly fixed to the support seat 11 and may be fixed by other means. Further, an opening may be formed in the support seat 11 and the lower end of the column cylinder 12 may be fitted into this opening.

  In the present embodiment, the column cylinder 12 is an example of a square tube, but the column cylinder 12 may be a cylindrical body, for example, a cylinder. Moreover, although the support seat 11 has shown the example of a plate-shaped member whose outer shape is a quadrangle, the outer shape and thickness are not particularly limited as long as the support column 12 can be erected. For example, the outer shape of the support seat 11 may be circular, and may be a block shape instead of a plate shape.

  As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the nut 13 is integrally formed on the outer peripheral surface of the column cylinder 12. As shown in FIG. 7, the nut 13 is joined to each of the four surfaces of the column cylinder 12. More specifically, as shown in FIG. 9, a bolt insertion hole 16 is formed in the column cylinder 12, and a nut 13 is joined by a welding portion 17 at a position corresponding to the bolt insertion hole 16. . In the present embodiment, the nut 13 is welded to the support cylinder 12 by welding. However, the nut 13 may be fixed integrally with the support cylinder 12 and may be fixed by other means. .

  Next, the connection structure of the support body 10 and the support | pillar 4 is demonstrated. FIG. 10 is a cross-sectional view showing a state where the support 10 and the support column 4 are connected. A part of the column 4 is inserted into the column cylinder 12. A bolt 20 is fastened to the nut 13, and the tip of the bolt 20 is pressed against the outer peripheral surface of the support column 4. Thereby, the support column 4 is fixed to the support column 12 and the support 10 and the support column 4 are connected. According to this configuration, as long as the outer peripheral surface of the support column 4 is opposed to the bolt insertion hole 16 (FIG. 9), the support column 4 can be fixed, and the degree of freedom in adjusting the height of the support column 4 is increased. Further, the supporting column 4 need not be fixed or adjusted for height, and for example, processing such as providing a long hole is not required. Furthermore, since the support column 4 is inserted into the column of the support column 12 and is fixed with the entire outer periphery surrounded by the support column 12, the support of the support column 4 is stabilized.

  In this embodiment, the nuts 13 are provided at a total of four locations, but may be provided at at least one location, and may be five or more locations. In order to stably fix the column 4, it is preferable that there are a plurality of nuts 13, and it is preferable that the nuts 13 are arranged to face each other via the column 12. In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 7, there are two pairs of nuts 13 arranged to face each other, which is advantageous for stable fixing of the support column 4. Further, the outer shape of the nut 13 is not limited to a polygon, and may be a circle.

  Next, the surface treatment of the support 10 will be described. Since the gantry 1 shown in FIG. 1 is used outdoors, it needs corrosion resistance. For this reason, also about the support body 10 which is a component of the mount frame 1, corrosion resistance is required. For this reason, when the raw material of the support body 10 does not have corrosion resistance that can withstand long-term use, the support body 10 is subjected to surface treatment to enhance corrosion resistance. Examples of the surface treatment include various plating treatments such as electrogalvanization and dacrotized treatment.

  As described above, the support body 10 of the present embodiment has the nut 13 joined to the support cylinder 12. For this reason, when surface-treating, the column cylinder 12 and the nut 13 are surface-treated integrally. For example, when performing the dacrotized process, the whole support body 10 to which the nut 13 is joined can be immersed in the processing liquid, and the entire support body 10 including the nut 13 is subjected to the dacrotized process. That is, the support 10 of this embodiment does not require the selection of a nut, and the surface-treated support 10 ensures the corrosion resistance of the entire support 10 including the nut 13.

  On the other hand, in the configuration in which the nut is not integrated with the support 10, it is necessary to prepare the nut, and a nut with insufficient corrosion resistance may be selected. In the support body 10 of this embodiment, if only the bolt 20 is used that has corrosion resistance (for example, a stainless steel bolt), the support body 10 that is an important part for supporting the support column 4 and the corrosion resistance of the connecting structure are secured.

  Next, the connection structure between the support 10 and the pile 30 will be described. FIG. 11 is an enlarged perspective view showing the vicinity of the support base 31 of the pile 30. A plurality of long holes 32 are formed radially on the support base 31. That is, each long hole 32 is formed by an opening extending outward from the center of the support base 31.

  FIG. 12 is a perspective view showing a state in which the support body 10 is placed on the support base 31 of the pile 30. Bolts 35 are inserted through the long holes 14 formed in the support seat 11 of the support 10. Although not shown in FIG. 12, the bolt 35 is inserted through the long hole 32 (FIG. 11) of the support base 31 of the pile 30 in a state where the head is directed downward (see FIG. 3).

  13 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line BB in FIG. In the state of this figure, the long hole 14 (FIG. 12) by the side of the support body 10 and the long hole 32 (FIG. 11) by the side of the pile 30 cross | intersect. Accordingly, the position of the support 10 can be adjusted in the planar direction, that is, in the horizontal direction (X1 direction, X2 direction) and the vertical direction (Y1 direction, Y2 direction). For convenience of explanation, the bolts 35 are identified by reference numerals 35a to 35d, the elongated holes 14 are distinguished by reference numerals 14a to 14d, and the elongated holes 32 are identified by reference numerals 32a to 32d. To distinguish.

  In FIG. 13, when the support body 10 is moved in the X1 direction, the long holes 14a and the long holes 14c of the support body 10 are about to move in the X1 direction along the bolts 35a and 35c. This is because the long hole 14a and the long hole 14c extend in the horizontal direction. On the other hand, the bolts 35 b and 35 d are movable along the long hole 32 b and the long hole 32 d of the pile 30. This is because the long hole 32b and the long hole 32d extend in the horizontal direction. Therefore, the support 10 can move in the X1 direction. The same applies to the X2 direction.

  On the other hand, when the support 10 is moved in the Y1 direction, the long hole 14b and the long hole 14d are moved in the Y1 direction along the bolt 35b and the bolt 35d. This is because the long hole 14b and the long hole 14d extend in the vertical direction. On the other hand, the bolts 35a and 35c are movable in the Y1 direction along the long hole 32a and the long hole 32c of the pile 30. This is because the long hole 32a and the long hole 32c extend in the vertical direction. Therefore, the support 10 can move in the Y1 direction. The same applies to the Y2 direction.

  That is, the position of the support 10 can be adjusted both in the horizontal direction (X1 direction and X2 direction) and in the Y direction (Y1 direction and Y2 direction). When the position adjustment is completed, the pile 30 and the support 10 are fixed and connected by tightening the nut 36 (FIGS. 3 and 4) to the bolts 35a to 35d. For convenience of illustration, the nut 36 is not illustrated in FIGS. 13 and 14, but the position adjustment of the support 10 is performed in a state where the nut 36 is attached to the bolts 35 a to 35 d in advance and the nut 36 is not completely tightened. By doing so, the position can be adjusted without dropping the bolts 35a to 35d.

  In the configuration of FIG. 13, the support seat 11 includes a long hole 14a and a long hole 14c extending in the horizontal direction, and a long hole 14b and a long hole 14d extending in the vertical direction. In this configuration, since the long holes 14a to 14d can be arranged so as to surround the support cylinder 12, it is advantageous to extend the long holes 14a to 14d in the longitudinal direction within the limited area of the support seat 11. In addition, since the long holes 14a to 14d surround the entire circumference of the column cylinder 12, stable fixation is possible. On the other hand, even if this configuration is adopted, since the long holes 32a to 32d on the pile 30 side extend radially, the long holes 14a to 14d on the support 10 side intersect with the long holes 32a to 32d on the pile 30 side. Can be made.

  FIG. 14 shows a state in which the embodiment in which the holes 14 a to 14 d in the support seat 11 of the support 10 are not long holes but circular holes is placed on the support base 31 of the pile 30. The diameters of the holes 14a to 14d are slightly larger than the diameters of the bolts 35a to 35d so that the bolts 35a to 35d can pass therethrough. In this configuration, the bolts 35a to 35d are inserted through the circular holes 14a to 14d, respectively. Therefore, even if the support 10 is moved, the movement of the bolts 35a to 35d is caused by the inner circumferences of the holes 14a to 14d, respectively. Regulated by the surface. For this reason, the support 10 can hardly be moved, and the position of the support 10 cannot be adjusted.

  Although the position adjustment of the support 10 has been described on the assumption of the configuration of FIG. 12, the long hole 14 of the support seat 11 may have the following configuration. It is sufficient that at least one long hole 14 is formed. For example, in FIG. 13, the long hole of the support seat 11 may be only the long hole 14a. Even in this configuration, the long hole 14a can move in the horizontal direction (X1 direction and X2 direction) along the bolt 35a. In addition, the bolt 35a is movable in the vertical direction (Y1 direction and Y2 direction) along the long hole 32a of the pile 30. Therefore, even if there is only one long hole 14, the position of the support 10 can be adjusted both in the horizontal direction and in the vertical direction. This is the same even in a configuration in which a bolt is passed through one or a plurality of long holes arbitrarily selected from the long holes 14a to 14d.

  That is, in FIG. 13, it is sufficient if at least one of the long holes 14 a to 14 d is provided and a bolt is passed through each long hole. On the other hand, in order to stabilize the support 10, it is desirable to fix it with a plurality of bolts. For example, among the long holes 14 a to 14 d, the long holes 14 a and 14 c arranged so as to sandwich the column cylinder 12. It may be a configuration provided with at least. Further, the arrangement of the long holes 14a to 14d may be changed, or a new long hole may be added to the long holes 14a to 14d.

  FIG. 15: has shown the perspective view of the vicinity of the support body 10 which concerns on another embodiment of this invention. This figure corresponds to part b of FIG. The support 10 shown in this figure is different from the support 10 shown in FIG. 4 and the like in that a support flange 18 is provided. The support flange 18 is a flange for supporting the inclined column 5. Parts having the same configuration as the support 10 shown in FIG. 4 and the like are denoted by the same reference numerals, and description thereof is omitted.

  16-21 has shown the single-piece | unit state of the support body 10 shown in FIG. 16 is a perspective view, FIG. 17 is a side view, FIG. 18 is a plan view, FIG. 19 is a bottom view, FIG. 20 is a view as viewed from the arrow C in FIG. As shown in FIG. 16 and the like, a pair of support flanges 18 extend from the side surface of the support cylinder 12. In the present embodiment, the support flange 18 is joined to the support cylinder 12 and the support seat 11 by welding, but may be joined by other means.

  A hole 19 is formed in the support flange 18. In FIG. 15, a bolt 21 is inserted through a hole 19 and a hole (not shown) formed in the column 5, and a nut (not shown) is tightened on the tip side of the bolt 21. Thus, the support column 5 is supported by the support body 10. According to the embodiment shown in FIGS. 15 to 21, the single support 10 can stably fix the vertical column and can fix the other column in the inclined direction.

  In the above embodiment, the example in which the hole formed in the support seat 11 is the long hole 14 has been mainly described. However, as in the embodiment shown in FIG. It is good also as a circular hole. Even in this configuration, since the nut 13 is joined to the support cylinder 12, the various effects described above can be obtained.
