A bushing assembly for solar tracking systems

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to the field of busing assemblies in solar tracking systems. The disclosed bushing assembly (100) is easy to assemble and install, and does not require any additional fixtures or clamps to keep the bushing assembly (100) at place. The bushing assembly (100) comprises a housing (110), a resilient bushing (120), and at least one flange (122a). The resilient bushing (120) is disposed within the housing (110), and has at least one slit (124) configured thereon. The slit (124) facilitates deformation of the bushing (120) while inserting the bushing (120) within the housing (110). The slit (124) is parallel or inclined at a predetermined angle with respect to the longitudinal axis (L1) of the bushing (120). The flange (122a) is configured on the periphery of the bushing (120) abutting the housing (110). The flange (122a) restricts an axial movement of the bushing (120).
