Solar panel mounting system for lane dividers

Abstract

A solar panel support device for a lane divider includes a lane divider with two uprights fixed to its lateral flat wall. A portion of each upright extends upwards from the lane divider and has multiple first fixing holes. A plurality of solar panel frames are connected to the two uprights at vertical intervals. Each solar panel frame includes a bracket and two bases attached to the bracket. The two bases are respectively located on the portion of each upright with the first fixing holes and have a plurality of locking holes. A first fixing member passes through each locking hole and the corresponding first fixing hole to detachably fix each solar panel frame to the connecting bracket, and a solar panel is attached to each bracket. This allows multiple solar panels to be fixed to the side of the lane divider, and their vertical arrangement can be easily adjusted according to the hole positions.

Claims

1. A solar panel support device for a lane divider, comprising: A lane divider has a flat wall on its side; a connecting bracket includes two uprights extending vertically and spaced horizontally, each upright being divided into a first segment and a second segment vertically, each second segment being fixed to the flat wall, each first segment extending upward from the lane divider, each first segment having a plurality of first fixing holes vertically; a plurality of solar panel frames arranged vertically and spaced vertically, each including two bases and a bracket, the two bases being respectively disposed on each of the two uprights in each of the first segments, each base having a plurality of locking holes, each corresponding to one of the locking holes having a first fixing member, each first fixing member passing through the corresponding locking hole and the corresponding first fixing hole to detachably fix each solar panel frame to the connecting bracket, each bracket being coupled to the corresponding two bases; and a plurality of solar panels, respectively coupled to the corresponding brackets.

2. The solar panel support device for a lane divider as described in claim 1, wherein the lane divider is a concrete guardrail; the lane divider has a bottom surface, and the flat wall surface is connected to and perpendicular to the bottom surface.

3. The solar panel support device for a lane divider as described in claim 2, wherein the lane divider is a New Jersey-style concrete guardrail; the side of the lane divider facing away from the flat wall forms a crash barrier, the crash barrier comprising, from bottom to top, a vertical section, a lower ramp section and an upper ramp section connected in sequence, the vertical section being perpendicular to the bottom surface, and the angle between the upper ramp section and the bottom surface being greater than the angle between the lower ramp section and the bottom surface.

4. The solar panel support device for the lane divider as described in claim 2, wherein each of the second segments is provided with a plurality of second fixing holes in the vertical direction, and a second fixing member is provided in cooperation with each of the second fixing holes, and each of the second fixing members passes through the corresponding second fixing hole and is coupled to the flat wall surface, thereby fixing each of the second segments to the flat wall surface.

5. The solar panel support device for a lane divider as described in claim 4, wherein each pole includes a first side plate portion, a second side plate portion and a connecting plate portion; the second side plate portion of each pole is parallel to and staggered with the first side plate portion, and the two sides of the connecting plate portion of each pole are respectively connected to one side edge of the first side plate portion and one side edge of the second side plate portion.

6. The solar panel support device for a lane divider as described in claim 5, wherein each of the second side panels abuts against the flat wall surface at the portion corresponding to the second section, and the second fixing holes are formed at the portion of each of the second side panels corresponding to the second section; the two bases of each solar panel bracket are detachably coupled to the portion of each of the first side panels corresponding to the first section, and the first fixing holes are formed at the portion of each of the first side panels corresponding to the first section.

7. A solar panel support device for a lane divider as described in claim 1, wherein each bracket includes two pairs of connecting arms and a support frame, the support frame being coupled to the upper ends of the two pairs of connecting arms, the lower ends of each pair of connecting arms being detachably coupled to the corresponding bases, the support frame extending outward relative to the two bases on the side opposite to the two uprights, the support frame being inclined such that the side opposite to the two uprights is lower and the side facing the other uprights is higher; each solar panel is fixed to the corresponding support frame.

8. A solar panel support assembly for a lane divider as claimed in claim 1, wherein each solar panel has an outer frame in which a solar panel body is attached; and a safety cable is connected between each outer frame and the connecting bracket.
