Photovoltaic roof tiles

Photovoltaic roof tiles are provided with interlocking edges; however, these can be expensive to manufacture and time-consuming to install. A more cost-effective option of tiling may use a double-lap tile arrangement. Because plain tiles have no interlocking edges, water can leak through the joins between tiles. This requires a third tile to be placed below the join to catch any water passing through. With double-lap tiles, a significant part of each tile remains covered after installation, such that a relatively small surface area is in view of the sun. Photovoltaic roof tile 302 is useable with double-lap tiles 301, the photovoltaic roof tile 302 having a tile width equal to an integral multiple of the double-lap tile width. In this way, such photovoltaic roof tiles 302 may be arranged with conventional double-lap roof tiles 301 to increase the proportion thereof available to sunlight 305, 307, without risking ingress of water.

Assembling display model for roofing tiles

This utility model discloses a model for assembling roof tiles, relating to the field of architectural model technology. The roof frame is obliquely mounted on the base support frame and the upright support frame, forming a triangular roof support frame. Drip tiles are staggered on the roof surface of the roof frame, and top tiles are assembled on top of the drip tiles. This design, based on the staggered assembly of wavy drip tiles, allows their wavy arc edges to overlap and interlock, forming a reverse-interlocking assembly. Then, through the misalignment and connection of the sealing protrusions and grooves on adjacent drip tiles, a tightly fitted roof component is formed. Furthermore, the subsequent top tiles, utilizing the misalignment and connection of their interlocking protrusions and grooves, create a better roof drainage system. This design offers both simpler and more convenient assembly, making roof assembly faster and more efficient, and better waterproofing and water-wicking properties.
