Abstract
A solar panel mount includes a plate, a plurality of flanges, and a mounting member. The plate includes a first edge and a first surface. The plate defines at least one opening spaced from the first edge. The plurality of flanges extend from the first edge in a direction transverse to the first surface. The mounting member defines at least one channel aligned with the at least one opening of the plate to receive a mounting shaft through an opening of the at least one opening and a corresponding channel of the at least one channel.
Claims15
A solar panel mount, comprising:
- a plate including a first surface having a first edge and a second edge opposite the first edge, and a divider extending outward from the first surface starting at the first edge towards the second edge, the divider including at least one first opening spaced from the first edge, the at least one first opening spaced from the first surface, the divider including a cavity on an opposite side of the first surface from the at least one first opening;
- a plurality of flanges extending from the first edge in a direction transverse to the first surface, each flange and the first edge defining at least one respective second opening between the flange and the first edge;
- and
- a mounting member defining at least one channel aligned with the at least one first opening of the plate to receive a mounting shaft through the cavity and a first opening of the at least one first opening and a corresponding channel of the at least one channel.

A roof mounting assembly, comprising:
- a plate including a first surface having a first edge and a second edge opposite the first edge, and a divider extending outward from the first surface starting at the first edge towards the second edge, the divider defining at least one first opening spaced from the first edge and from the first surface, the divider having a cavity on an opposite side of the first surface from the at least one first opening, the cavity closer to the first edge than the second edge;
- a plurality of flanges extending from the first edge in a direction transverse to the first surface, each flange defining at least one opening between the flange and the first edge;
- and
- a mounting member defining at least one channel sized to be aligned with the at least one opening of the plate when the mounting member is received in the cavity.
