Abstract

PURPOSE:To enable to place solar heat collectors in a stable condition on opposite sides of the ridge of a roof, by a method wherein supporting bars are extended horizontally sideways from both lower ends of curved pieces opposed to each other, and arms turned relatively to the supporting bars can be locked. CONSTITUTION:The curved pieces 1 raised upward are opposed to each other, and the supporting bars 3 are extended horizontally sideways form both lower ends of the pieces 1 to constitute a framework 4. The arms 6 turned relatively to the bars 3 are provided oppositely to and on the lower side of the bars 3 so that turning of the arms 6 can be stopped by locking mechanisms 11. Accordingly, since the weight of the solar heat collectors are distributed to the arms 6, the weight is prevented from being concentrated on a point of a roof material, and the roof material can be prevented from being broken. In addition, since the solar heat collectors can be placed at a level approximate to that of the ridge of the roof, they can be prevented from being blown up winds. Further, since the trestle can be placed on both slanted surfaces astride the ridge of the roof, stresses in the direction of causing the trestle to slip down cancel each other, and the collector can be placed in a stable condition.

Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Technical Field] This invention relates to a mount for a solar heat collector, and more particularly, to a mount useful for installing a heat collector on a roof whose sloped surface cannot receive sunlight from the front. .

[Background technology]

A roof whose sloped surface cannot receive sunlight from the front, that is, a roof with a series of ridges formed in the north and south directions, receives less light than the south sloped surface of a roof with ridges formed in the east and west. As shown in Figure 1, a pedestal was installed, and a solar heat collector was installed at an angle on top of the pedestal. In other words, support legs of different heights are assembled on both sides of the ridge a, and the frame C is raised up on the slope of the roof, and then using these support legs, the frame C is tilted upward from south to north. , and this frame C
A solar heat collector plate d was placed on the roof.

In this case, since the solar heat collector plate d is located on the ridge a, there is a risk that it will be blown up by strong winds, making it unstable.

Note that e in the figure is a hot water storage tank that naturally circulates between it and the solar heat collecting plate d, and f is a distern installed above this hot water storage tank e.

[Purpose of the invention]

This invention was made in view of the above-mentioned circumstances, and provides a frame for installing solar heat collectors on both sides of a ridge, allowing stable installation according to the inclination angle of the roof.

[Disclosure of the invention]

In this invention, curved pieces that bulge upward are opposed to each other, and a frame formed by horizontally rolling a support bone is connected to the side from both lower ends of each curved piece, and the frame is rotated with respect to the support bone. The present invention provides a mount for a solar heat collector, characterized in that an arm is disposed opposite to the support bone at a lower side, and a locking mechanism for stopping rotation of the arm is attached. Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained based on the drawings of the embodiments.

FIGS. 2 and 3 are perspective views of embodiments of the present invention, and FIGS.
The figure is a perspective view showing a mode of use.

In Figure WS2, 1 is a curved piece that swells upward, and this curved piece 1 forms a downward recess 2.

Two curved pieces 1 form a set and are opposed to each other.

Here, the curved piece 1 includes not only an arc shape but also a U-shape. A frame 4 formed by horizontally rolling supports 5 is provided sideways from both lower ends of each curved piece 1. This framework 4 is constructed in a rectangular shape and includes connecting ribs 5 that connect supporting ribs.

Reference numeral 6 denotes an arm rotatably provided with respect to the support bone B, and this arm 6 has a rotation shaft 7 at the connection portion between the support bone 3 and the curved piece 1.
The arm A is provided with a lower part of the arm B and is opposite to the arm B. A rising edge 8 curved into an arc centered on the rotating shaft 7 is provided at the tip of this arm B, and a vertical elongated hole 9 is formed in this rising edge 8. This elongated hole 9 similarly forms an arc centered on the rotating shaft 7. The supporting frame 5 constituting the framework 4 and the upright 8 attached to this arm 6 constitute a locking mechanism 11 that stops rotation of the arm 6 with a bolt 10 inserted through the elongated hole 9 of the upright 8. . That is, when the upright 8 is fixed to the support bone 5 while being aligned along the long hole 9 forming an arc, the angle θ formed with the arm 6 is adjusted and held constant.

In FIG. 3, a long hole 12 is provided in the longitudinal direction of the support bone 6 and the arm B, and the rotation of the arm 6 is stopped by a vertical piece 13 connected to the support bone 3 and the arm 6 with a bolt 10. A locking mechanism 11 is configured. That is, the long hole 12
By connecting the vertical pieces 1 along the angle θ between the arm 6 and the support bone 5, the angle θ between the arm 6 and the supporting bone 5 is adjusted and held at a constant angle. In addition, supporting bone 6. Although the arm 6 is not limited to this, it is preferable to use L-shaped steel in consideration of load capacity.

The mode of use will be explained with reference to FIG.

To explain a mode in which a solar heat collector is installed using the frame shown in FIG.
Place one end of the heat collecting plate 14 on top of the notch 16 formed on the front surface of the hot water storage tank 15, and place the other end of the heat collecting plate 14 on the upper surface of the notch 16 formed on the front surface of the hot water storage tank 15 to form a heat collecting plate. 1
4 is tilted so that sunlight can be received from the front. This heat collecting plate 14 and hot water storage tank 15
For example, they are connected by piping so that water can circulate. The low temperature water in the hot water storage tank 15 is fed through a water supply pipe led out from the bottom of the hot water storage tank 15, and the hot water in the heat collecting plate 14 is introduced into the top of the hot water storage tank 15 (not shown).

However, when installing a solar heat collector on a roof whose sloped surface cannot receive sunlight from the front, the curved piece 1 constituting the pedestal is installed across the ridge 16 and supported laterally from its lower end. The bones are installed horizontally. Then, the arm 6 is rotated according to the slope of the roof, and a locking mechanism 11 is adjusted to stop the rotation of the arm 6 when the arm 6 is aligned with the slope of the roof. Here, a riser 8 provided on the arm B is raised and lowered with reference to the horizontal support frame 3, and is fixed via a bolt 10 inserted into an elongated hole 12.

〔Effect of the invention〕

According to this invention, the load of the solar heat collector is distributed to the arm A, so damage can be prevented without concentrating the load on one point of the roof material.Moreover, the solar heat collector can be placed at the same level as the ridge. This allows the building to be installed on both sides to prevent blow-up, and it is also possible to install pedestals on both sides of the slope across the ridge, which eliminates the stress of sliding down and provides stability.
