Mounting structure for concentrated photovoltaic module housing, concentrated photovoltaic module, concentrated photovoltaic panel, and concentrated photovoltaic device

A mounting structure for a concentrator photovoltaic module housing configured to be used in a concentrator photovoltaic module, the concentrator photovoltaic module including:

• a plurality of power generating elements;
• and a concentrating member configured to concentrate sunlight toward each of the plurality of power generating elements, the mounting structure comprising:
• a bottom plate formed from an electric conductor and having the plurality of power generating elements arrayed thereat;
• a side wall frame made of resin, the side wall frame standing along an outer edge of the bottom plate and configured to hold the concentrating member so as to face the bottom plate;
• a support member being a grounded electric conductor, the support member configured to be in contact with the bottom plate to support the concentrator photovoltaic module;
• and
• a fastening member configured to fasten the support member and the bottom plate to each other thereby to fix the concentrator photovoltaic module to the support member, the fastening member being formed from an electric conductor thereby to serve as a path for electric connection from the bottom plate to the support member, wherein
• the fastening member includes:
• a bolt configured to penetrate the bottom plate and the support member;
• and
• a nut configured to be screwed with the bolt to fasten the bottom plate and the support member, wherein
• a holding portion holding the nut or a head of the bolt inside the housing and at an inner face of the bottom plate is formed integrally with an inner face of the side wall frame.
