Problems solved by technology

This design tends to be costly due to the use of steel
[0007] Additionally, existing floating systems may be vulnerable to waves, strong undercurrents, and other factors such as wind
therefore, these systems may not be suitable for deployment in relatively harsh environments such as the high seas
[0008] Additionally, existing floating systems may not take into account the Earth's rotation around the sun, which affects the amount of sunlight that falls on the solar panels throughout the day

Embodiment Construction

[0045] According to an aspect of the invention there is a floatable structure or unit arranged to support one or more loads. This load can be in the form of at least one panel and / or individual. The floatable structure includes a coupling portion for coupling to another floatable structure; and wherein at least one surface of the floatable structure includes a corrugated portion having a plurality of weights adapted to bear the weight of at least one individual thereon. a ridge.

[0046] The floatable structure is particularly suitable for mounting one or more solar panels, but may also be suitable for mounting other types of panels, such as LED panels, reflector panels, art display panels, poster panels, two or more of the above Combination panels of this kind, panels or devices for installing pyrotechnic devices, etc. Generally, such loads carried by the floatable structure may include lightweight panels and / or individuals such as people.

[0047] It is understood that wh...

Abstract

The present invention relates to a floatable structure for supporting at least one panel and / or an individual, said floatable structure comprises a coupling portion for coupling with another floatablestructure; and at least one surface; wherein the at least one surface of the floatable structure comprises a corrugated portion, the corrugated portion having a plurality of ridges. A plurality of the floatable structures may be combined to form a floatable system, said system is especially suited for supporting panels such as solar panels, and for maintenance of said solar panels.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a buoyable structure and system to support at least one panel and / or an individual. Background technique [0002] The following discussion of the background to the invention is intended to facilitate an understanding of the invention. It should be appreciated, however, that the discussion is not an acknowledgment or admission that any of the material referred to was published, known or part of the common general knowledge in any jurisdiction as at the priority date of the application. [0003] Renewable or clean energy has been gaining attention as an alternative energy solution compared to conventional power plants. An increasing number of geographic locations in the tropics or around the equator are utilizing solar energy from the sun as an energy source. In this regard, solar panels typically include photovoltaic cells to convert solar energy into electricity, and have traditionally been deployed in diverse locatio...
