Abstract
Description
[0001] The solar module is embedded in a flat PUR mounting frame. This frame is glued to the vehicle roof and, thanks to its design, ensures optimal ventilation despite a height of only 18 mm. This also makes it possible to glue the module directly to sensitive roof surfaces, as the solar module and roof membrane are thermally decoupled. The walkable solar module is screwed onto the mounting frame and can be easily removed if needed. The junction box and cable routing are located on the underside of the solar module. The connection cables can be routed to the side or to the rear.
[0002] The main problem with walkable solar panels, also known as flat-panel modules, is that due to a lack of ventilation, heat builds up underneath the panel, reducing its performance. Furthermore, the flat-panel module is glued directly to the roof across its entire surface, making it extremely difficult to remove without damaging the vehicle's roof.
[0003] This invention solves these problems. Because the module is screwed into the mounting frame, it can be easily replaced in case of a defect. Furthermore, the design ensures constant ventilation, preventing a drop in solar power output even in high temperatures.

Claims
[1] Flat module, mounted on a frame structure, characterized by , that it is not permanently glued to the vehicle, but can be removed again. [2] Flat module, mounted on a frame structure, characterized by , that it is ventilated through the frame construction and thus the problem of heat development under the directly glued module is solved. [3] Flat module, mounted on a frame structure, characterized by that it remains accessible.
