Description

MOUNTING BRACKET FOR A TILED ROOF TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a mounting bracket for a tiled roof comprising a firstflat and elongate structure adapted to be arranged on the outward facing side of atile from the rear edge of a tile in a direction towards the front edge of the tile. Thebracket further comprises a roof attachment part arranged at a first end of theelongate structure wherein the attachment part extends in a perpendicular directionrelative the elongate structure for attaching the mounting bracket to the roof supportstructure or roof lath at the rear edge of a tile under the tiles. The elongate structurefurther has an elongate bracket part along the elongate structure protruding in adirection from the elongate structure in the opposite direction of the roof attachmentpart. The elongate bracket part extends from the second end of the elongate structure and along at least half the length of the elongate structure, the elongate bracket part having mounting structures at its distal side from the elongate structure.
BACKGROUND Solar panels can be installed on many roof types and in several countries the mostcommon type is tiled roofs. The tiles are removed and steel brackets are screwed tothe roof support structure or roof lath and the tiles then re-installed in the formerposition. Railing systems are mounted on the steel brackets leaving a clear spacebetween the roof and the panel. This allows for air circulation to get between solarpanels and tiles and for the air circulation to cool the solar panels in the hot summer months.A solar panel mounting system uses the rails and brackets to tie the solar powersystem to the roof frame. The weight of the frame and the panels are spread across the covered area.
There are a number of mounting systems on the market.
SUMMARYlt is an object of the present invention to provide an improved mounting bracket for atiled roof. This object is achieved with a mounting bracket according to the appended claims.
According to a first aspect of the present disclosure a mounting bracket for a tiledroof comprising a first elongate structure adapted to be arranged on the outwardfacing side of a tile from the rear edge of a tile in a direction towards the front edge ofthe tile is provided. The bracket further comprises a roof attachment part arranged ata first end of the elongate structure, the attachment part extending in a perpendiculardirection relative the elongate structure for attaching the mounting bracket to the roofsupport structure or roof lath at the rear edge of a tile under the tiles. The elongatestructure further has an elongate bracket part along the elongate structure protrudingin a direction from the elongate structure in the opposite direction of the roofattachment part. The elongate bracket part extends from the second end of theelongate structure and along at least half the length of the elongate structure. Theelongate bracket part has mounting structures at its distal side from the elongatestructure. The elongate bracket part has a recess adapted for holding a pvc piperunning in a perpendicular direction to the longitudinal direction of the elongate bracket part.
Thus, the electric wiring that is necessary in one Way or another is facilitated by therecess in the bracket such that a pipe could easily be pushed into it. Preferably, therecess has a radius corresponding to a standard size pvc pipe. Also, the recesspreferably extends around a little more than half the circumference of a pipe, i.e. therecess is circular shaped with an extension that is larger than a semi-circle. ln thisway the pvc pipe could be snapped and held in position without the need for further fastening means.
According to a further aspect of the present disclosure, the mounting bracket is made of a bent sheet of metal.
The sheet of metal is first punched to get the desired shape and thereafter bent and thus the entire mounting bracket is made of a single piece of metal sheet. 3 The elongate structure has according to another aspect of the present disclosure a v-shaped cross-section for allowing a tighter fit to a concave part of a curved tile.
The angle between the "legs" of the ”v” in the v-shaped cross-section is larger than 90 degrees.
According to yet another aspect of the present disclosure, the roof attachment part comprises tvvo arms at the first end of the elongate structure.
This increases the stability of the mounting bracket since there will be two attachment points. Further, this improves the distribution of the load.
According to a further aspect of the present disclosure the end of the elongatebracket part at the second end of the elongate structure has a protrusion in adirection away from the elongate structure for stopping additional brackets or panelsfrom sliding down when being mounted before they are fastened to the elongate bracket part.
When mounting further brackets or a panel this can easily be carried out by oneperson since the brackets or panels are stopped from sliding down when being mounted.
The recess is according to an aspect of the present disclosure arranged at the end of the elongate bracket part closest to the first end of the elongate structure.
Further features of, and advantages with, the present invention will become apparentwhen studying the appended claims and the following description. The skilled personrealize that different features of the present invention may be combined to createembodiments other than those described in the following, without departing from the scope of the present invention. 4 BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGSThe above, as well as additional objects, features and advantages of the presentinvention, will be better understood through the following illustrative and non-limiting detailed description of exemplary embodiments of the present invention, wherein: Figure 1 is a perspective view of the mounting bracket according to an embodiment of the present disclosure and Figure 2 is a further perspective view of the mounting bracket shown in figure 1.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF EXAMPLE EMBODIMENTS OF THE lNVENTlONThe present invention will now be described more fully hereinafter with reference tothe accompanying drawings, in which exemplary embodiments of the invention areshown. The invention may, however, be embodied in many different forms andshould not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein; rather, theseembodiments are provided for thoroughness and completeness. Like reference character refer to like elements throughout the description.
With reference to figures 1 and 2, a mounting bracket 1 for a tiled roof has a firstelongate structure 2 that is adapted to be arranged on the outward facing side of atile from the rear edge of a tile in a direction towards the front edge of the tile. Thebracket 1 further has a roof attachment part 3 arranged at a first end 4 of the elongate structure 2.
As can be seen in the figures, the attachment part 3 extends in a perpendiculardirection relative the elongate structure 2 for attaching the mounting bracket 1 to the roof support structure or roof lath at the rear edge of a tile under the tiles.
The elongate structure 2 further has an elongate bracket part 5 along the elongatestructure 2 protruding in a direction from the elongate structure 2 in the oppositedirection of the roof attachment part 3. The elongate bracket part 5 extends from thesecond end 6 of the elongate structure 2 and along at least half the length of the elongate structure 2.
The elongate bracket part 5 has mounting structures 7 at its distal side 8 from theelongate structure 2. The mounting structures 7 are in the shown embodiment apertures for mounting with for instance screw joints.
The elongate bracket part has a recess 9 adapted for holding a pvc pipe running in aperpendicular direction to the longitudinal direction of the elongate bracket part 5.The recess 9 extends around a little more than half the circumference of a pipe, i.e.the recess 9 is circular shaped with an extension such that it is larger than a semi-circle. ln this way a pvc pipe could be snapped and held in position without the needfor further fastening means. Obviously, the size of the recess should be adapted to the size of pipe to be used or vice versa.
The mounting bracket 1 is made of a bent sheet of metal and the elongate structure2 has a v-shaped cross-section for allowing a tighter fit to a concave part of a curvedtile. Alternatively, instead of a v-shape, the elongate structure 2 could be curved to fit even better with the concave part of a curved tile.
Further, the roof attachment part 3 have two arms 10, 11 at the first end 4 of theelongate structure 2. ln the shown embodiment the roof attachment part 3 isdesigned to be fasted to the roof lath of a roof via the apertures 15, 16 in the arms10, 11.
The end 12 of the elongate bracket part 5 at the second end 6 of the elongatestructure 2 has a protrusion 13 in a direction away from the elongate structure 2 forstopping additional brackets or panels from sliding down when being mounted beforethey are fastened to the elongate bracket part 5. The protrusion 13 is in the shown embodiment simply an extension of the elongate bracket part 5.
As further can be seen in the figures, the recess 9 is arranged at the end 14 of the elongate bracket part 5 closest to the first end 4 of the elongate structure 2. lt is to be understood that the present invention is not limited to the embodimentsdescribed above and illustrated in the drawings; rather, the skilled person will recognize that many changes and modifications may be made within the scope of 6 the appended claims. For example, the length of the mounting bracket could be varied according to the size of the tiles.
