The top of the head 7 and the top of the tile 4 are evenly provided with solar panel bodies 5, and the back of the solar panel bodies 5 are respectively attached to the top of the first track 6. The two ends of the solar panel bodies 5 are symmetrically provided with mounting track frames 22, and the bottom ends of the mounting track frames 22 are respectively slidably connected to the first track 6. The top ends of the mounting track frames 22 are respectively engaged with one side of the solar panel bodies 5. The bottom ends of the first track 6 are evenly provided with bracket assemblies, and the bottom ends of the bracket assemblies are respectively connected to the purlins 3.

[0027] Furthermore, the bracket assembly includes a bonding plate 8, a support plate 9, a mounting plate 10, an adjusting seat 11, a track fixing frame 12, an adjusting groove 13, a protrusion 14, a reinforcing seat 15, a mounting platform 16, a side reinforcing frame 17, a first side plate 18, a second side plate 19, a third side plate 20, and an insert plate 21. The bottom end of the first track 6 is uniformly provided with bonding plates 8, and the bottom end of each bonding plate 8 is respectively bonded to the surface of the tile 4. One end of each bonding plate 8 is symmetrically fixedly connected to a support plate 9, and one end of each support plate 9 is fixedly connected to a mounting plate 10. The mounting plates 10 are all located at the bottom end of the solar panel body 5. One end of each mounting plate 10 is slidably connected to an adjusting seat 11, and the top of each adjusting seat 11 is provided with a track fixing frame 12. The track fixing frames 12 are respectively... The first track 6 is slidably connected to the adjusting seat 11, the track fixing frame 12, and the first track 6, all connected by screws.

Insert plates 21 are symmetrically fixedly connected to one end of each of the bonding plates 8, and each insert plate 21 is located between the first side plate 18, the second side plate 19, and the third side plate 20. One end of each bonding plate 8 is connected to the mounting platform 16 by screws. During installation, if there are roof tiles 4, the user first removes the tiles 4, allowing the bonding plate 8 to adhere to the tiles 4. Then, the bottom end of the reinforcing base 15 passes through the purlin 3, and the insert plate 21 at one end of the bonding plate 8 is then inserted between the first side plate 18, the second side plate 19, and the third side plate 20, bringing one end of the bonding plate 8 close to the mounting platform 16. Tightening the screws secures the bonding plate 8 to the mounting platform 16. Tile 4 and purlin 3 are tightened to secure them. At the same time, one end of the side reinforcement frame 17 is engaged with the mounting platform 16, and then the other end of the side reinforcement frame 17 is secured to the roof panel 1 with screws. At this point, the bonding plate 8, reinforcement seat 15 and side reinforcement frame 17 can be fixed. Then, tile 4 is put back in its original position. Then, the user adjusts the position of the adjustment seat 11 and the track fixing frame 12 so that the first track 6 is on the same plane. Finally, the user fixes the solar panel body 5 to the first track 6 together with the track mounting frame 22. If there is no tile 4, the user only needs to fix the side reinforcement frame 17 and the first side plate 18 to the purlin 3 with screws. This makes the installation more convenient and easier for the user to install.

[0028] It should be noted that the bottom ends of each set of tiles 4 are located at the top of another set of tiles 4. The bottom ends of the mounting rail bracket 22 are all connected to the first rail 6 by screws to improve stability and waterproofing. One end of the bonding plate 8 extends to the bottom end of each tile 4, and the middle of the bonding plate 8 is located at the connection point of the two sets of tiles 4. The shape of the bonding plate 8 is the same as that of the tile 4 to improve the applicability of the bracket assembly. The bonding plate 8, support plate 9, mounting plate 10, protrusion 14, and insert plate 21 are all integrally formed structures.

The first side plate 18, the second side plate 19, and the third side plate 20 are all located on both sides of the insert plate 21, which facilitates the first side plate 18, the second side plate 19, and the third side plate 20 to limit and fix the insert plate 21. The inner wall of the bottom end of the reinforcing base 15 is serrated to increase the friction between the reinforcing base 15 and the purlin 3, thereby improving the firmness. The top of the mounting plate 10 is uniformly fixed with protrusions 14, and the top of the protrusions 14 are all in contact with the inner wall of the adjusting base 11, which increases the friction and firmness between the mounting plate 10 and the adjusting base 11.

[0029] Working principle: When using this device, the adhesive plate 8, which is compatible with the tile 4, allows it to be adapted to various tile types. The distance between the first tracks 6 can be adjusted by the track fixing bracket 12, and finally locked with screws. The height of the first track 6 can be adjusted by the screws between the track fixing bracket 12 and the adjusting seat 11. During installation, if there are tiles 4 on the roof, the user first removes the tiles 4, allowing the adhesive plate 8 to adhere to the tiles 4. Then, the bottom end of the reinforcing seat 15 passes through the purlin 3, and the insert plate 21 at one end of the adhesive plate 8 is inserted between the first side plate 18, the second side plate 19, and the third side plate 20, so that one end of the adhesive plate 8 is close to the mounting platform 16. By tightening the screws, the adhesive plate 8 is tightened to secure the tiles 4 and the purlin 3. At the same time, one end of the side reinforcing bracket 17 is engaged with the mounting platform 16. Secure one end of the side reinforcement bracket 17 to the roof panel 1 with screws. This will fix the bonding plate 8, the reinforcement seat 15, and the side reinforcement bracket 17. Then, put the tile 4 back in its original position. Next, the user adjusts the position of the adjusting seat 11 and the track fixing bracket 12 so that the first track 6 is on the same plane. Finally, the user fixes the solar panel body 5 to the first track 6 by installing the track bracket 22. If there is no tile 4, the user only needs to fix the side reinforcement bracket 17 and the first side plate 18 to the purlin 3 with screws. This makes the installation more convenient. During installation, this device can not only flexibly adjust the first track 6 up, down, forward, and backward, but also be installed conveniently without damaging the roof. At the same time, this device does not require customization, thereby reducing its limitations and increasing its application areas, thus reducing the user's operating costs.

[0030] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
