System for flat-roof installation of solar modules

Abstract

A flat-roof installation set for solar collector modules ( 5 ) includes a carrier frame on which the solar collector modules ( 5 ) are mounted, whereby the solar modules ( 5 ) are mounted on a first side of an installation set ( 1 ) adjacent to one another in a plane inclined from the roof surface ( 3 ) and with their upper and lower edges ( 6, 10 ) positioned in parallel to the roof surface ( 3 ) and aligned with one another. In order to compensate for wind loads using aerodynamic supports, a wind-suppressing or wind-blocking connector is provided between the lower edges ( 6 ) of the solar module ( 5 ) and the roof surface ( 3 ), and the second side of the installation set ( 2 ) between the upper edges of the solar modules and the roof surface ( 3 ) is implemented to be of enclosed design, and is inclined with respect to the solar modules ( 5 ) and opposite them. Both ends of the installation set ( 4 ) and the underside of the installation set are open to the roof surface ( 3 ).
