  • Patent number: 6384314
    Abstract: Solar cell systems are normally made as a number of panel plates sized typically 0.5-1×1 m, with associated mounting means for holding the plates in suitably inclined positions relative to a horizontal or vertical mounting base. According to the invention, these panel plates may advantageously be changed into a lamella-shaped structure, e.g. with a width of only 10-20 cm and, in return, with a much larger length dimension, whereby strips of a solar cell sheet material can be supported by already highly developed and inexpensive carrier systems, whether or not these also serve another purpose with respect to sun shading. A number of relevant advantages is obtained in using carrier laminae made of aluminium.
